#enforcing boundaries

March will be full of peace and boundaries

[angelnumber27]

Having and enforcing your personal boundaries is not “mean” or “bitchy” it’s necessary, healthy and important. If someone makes you feel like upholding those boundaries is a negative thing, they’re 1. Wrong 2. probably not a good person and 3. are just trying to manipulate you by attempting to break down the walls and barriers that you have built which, hmm interesting, have to exist in the first place for your protection from people like that

So let me say it again:

Having and enforcing your personal boundaries is not “mean” or “bitchy”

It is not weak, it is not selfish or stupid, it doesn’t mean you are too much or too little of anything. it’s not pathetic, it’s not lame. Its beautiful and shows that you know your worth and respect yourself . And people that think those negative ways about other peoples’ personal boundaries shouldn’t be people you should ever be around to begin with. Like the audacity of some people (mainly men ngl) never ceases to amaze me. The entitlement.. it’s wild

Distance yourself wherever possible from any type of energy like that. You don’t need that in your life, you deserve better, and you deserve full respect from yourself and others.

Especially as the holidays are upon us, remember your boundaries. Remember that "No, thank you" is a complete sentence. You don't owe anyone explanation or justification for enforcing your boundaries. You are not obligated to make yourself uncomfortable for the sake of "festivity!" or "family!" or anything else, and you are not obligated to make yourself uncomfortable just to make anyone else's life easier. You are not a burden for taking care of yourself, and you are not a bad person for saying no.
