Setting Healthy Boundaries

Again, the wrong person to ask! My boundaries are hard to overcome and if you make it through the imaginary moat, the chains around my heart, and you know where, I applaud you.

The thing is I’ve come up with numerous boundaries and they are of the impossible kind. Sometimes I think that I have them there to protect the broken heart that needs saving from further damage! At other times, I come up with them on a whim, whatever floats my boat at the time.

The first one is DON’T TOUCH! I don’t like unnecessary touching especially on first dates, second dates, or however long it takes. Get the picture? I don’t give out the milk for free so I end up with complicated relationships. The “Don’t Touch” policy doesn’t set too well with men.

Along with that don’t ask me why I don’t have a spark in my eyes when I look at you. It’ll show up if and when the time is right. Here again, it may be never! I guess that’s why I’m still single and looking for the right guy! He has decided to go the other direction where things are easier!

Cheaters, liars, and the like can take a hike! I don’t play around where these guys are concerned. The minute I find out, I put them out of their misery. Stay away from these losers. No point wasting time on them because sooner or later the real person shows up. It never fails. Pay attention to what is shown and listen to your intuition. It has your best interests at heart.

Stay away from men who are all about themselves. These are the ones who look in the mirror and see someone different! Not the faded image of themselves but in that imaginary mirror, they come across as 007! The problem is they take that image into the world and treat women like they don’t matter. Know your self-worth and send them on their way to play with another mirror!

Healthy boundaries are necessary for healthy relationships. Both people should feel free to express themselves without feeling hemmed in. Each other’s personal space should be respected and respectful interactions are a must. These boundaries help to create trust, well-being, and builds meaningful connections.

Easy enough? So where is the guy I’m looking for? He’ll show up when the time is right.

Fingers and toes crossed.
