Boundaries are good. If not people would walk all over you. For example if I sit here and I ask my husband to help me and he said he would. But yet doesn’t. Repeats the same thing over and over. Where my heart has been hurt over and over. For the same lies for the same cycle. So I stopped doing certain things to get his attention. Then he asked me what happened. Now he started helping me. So boundaries help. I stood my ground. God didn’t make me a doormat. He made me a helper but definitely not a door mat.
Boundaries in marriage are a terrible idea because they are used to "protect" yourself when you should be learning to love unconditionally. Boundaries in regular life are needed.
Thank you Paul! I learned many years ago not to make “it” about me. I applied it for awhile and for some reason let it go. It wasn’t until this past year that I was reminded of this concept. I have been putting it into action and have felt more peace and freedom than ever. Other people’s responses and reactions are not about me/you, and when we change our thinking it completely removes us from the equation and offense diminishes.
I listen to any videos/podcasts by Paul and find EACH of them humble me and then inspire me to love and respect my husband even more! I’m looking forward to reading his book!!

I am crying tears of joy watching this. But how should we behave outside of marriage. Boundaries or no boundaries?
Ah, marriage is a unique venue. All others follow a much more "protective" rule book, but still with love.
It’s true. We cause most of our own suffering by just how we choose to view things.
Thank you!
