OMG, I just had a personal breakthrough!!! No kidding! Maybe this will resonate with you!!

Why is it (I ask myself) that people (other women) can boundary bust, make inappropriate requests, go over our heads so to speak and ask our BFs/DHs first for favors…..

And then WE feel guilty for wanting to set boundaries.

And then God forbid that we DO set boundaries or say NO!!

**You see, they weren’t counting on this.** Then (OP, this hasn’t happened to you yet and I hope it never will) they make YOU the Bad Guy!!!

Background: I said “NO” to an old friend visiting a couple years ago because of some outrageous behavior. I did it the Old New England Way: “We’re busy that week! Maybe next time!” Long post worthy story, but it looks like she’s still trying to make me pay for it.

So don’t feel bad! Boundaries!! Sorry I just had to get this off my chest!
