Boundaries are not a sign you love people less. They are a way to love yourself more — and to love others in healthier ways. When you say no to what harms you, you say yes to relationships that can actually last.
Boundaries strengthen connections by clarifying expectations. Without them, relationships breed resentment and imbalance. Learning to set limits is not cruelty but a step toward honesty. Healthy boundaries protect mental wellbeing and build relationships based on respect, not control.
