you have to be more afraid of losing you than of losing him
that is how you set boundaries
what are you worth?
I never told my current partner that I wouldn't tolerate cheating. I don't have to. I am the kind of person who wouldn't tolerate cheating...does that make sense?
you can never plan for all the possible things he may do
you just have to be you and good with you
if a friend came and gave you a hug would you respond that it is confusing? or a person from work? nope...you would accept the hug for what it is...a hug of comfort
do not place any motives behind things...like why is he hugging me, what does this mean, etc
Just face value
It will help you remain calm in your mind
I have tried to do the same thing with my interactions with everyone. Does my male co-worker hugging me when my grandma died mean he wants to get in my pants or start a relationship or buy me dinner or send me on a trip or...
nope... he saw I was hurting he cares about me as a person he gave me a hug
thinking in this way makes my interactions with everyone seem much more genuine.
