No matter what I can take those lessons in to my next relationship. Both from the point of view of not making the same mistakes I made before, and from the point of recognizing in future men that boundary-resistant personality that I do not want to have back in my life...so even if you aren't married it is a great book!

Ok getting off my soapbox... smile


If your getting respect, and your communicating - there won't be much boundary enforcement to do at all.

Its when you lost respect and the other party does not care, or does not think about whats important to you that you are enforcing boundaries.
