You Need Healthier Emotional Boundaries If You Experience These 8 Signs

Our emotional boundaries are the very things that determine what (and who) we allow into our lives, where our energy is focused, and what types of treatment we are willing to accept from others. Often, a lack of self-worth can cause us to lower our standards and loosen our boundaries. As a result, we experience some of the signs below: <h1>1: Your schedule is full of things you don’t want to do.</h1> When was the last time you said “no thanks” to an offer to make plans? Are you comfortable declining an invitation, or do you feel like the moment you start saying “no,” people will stop liking you, stop inviting you, and stop interacting with you? People with low emotional boundaries tend to also be people pleasers, and have a very hard time saying no, because they think always “yessing” everyone is the only way to earn their affection. In the long run, saying “yes” to everything can easily stretch you too thin, put you in places you don’t want to be, and even build resentment towards the people who invited you, because now you feel forced by them. If they distance themselves from you because you said no — let them, you don’t need fragile relationships like that. <a href="https://jamesmsama.medium.com/you-need-healthier-emotional-boundaries-if-you-experience-these-8-signs-e99cce1d99ea">Learn More</a>
