Do you think he doesn't know? What would be different in his actions if he did know your boundary? I don't think it hurts to state a boundary you will enforce. But in my experience an MLCr doesn't understand the meaning behind words or for that matter, anything a normal person would understand. Kind of like a two-year old.

So I'm curious what telling him does? Don't get me wrong, I'm all for clear communication in a normal relationship. And if it makes you feel better to say it to him, I don't see a problem with firmly setting and enforcing boundaries. I'm just trying to understand your expectations of the transaction.

Make sense?
