Boundaries



Transcribed from Tik Tok User Inspiring Moments


The moment a person realizes you will tolerate their disrespect,

the way they treat you changes forever.


And I need you to understand this clearly:


People don't keep hurting you because they don't know it hurts

They keep hurting you because they know you'll stay anyway.


Your forgiveness becomes their permission to break you again.


You think by being patient, understanding and giving second chances,

they will eventually see your worth and change....


But that is not how human psychology works.


When you accept bad behaviour.....

you teach them how to negotiate your value down.


They stop valuing your presence 

because there are zero consequences 

for ignoring your boundaries, or stepping out on you.


If someone breaks your trust, or disrespects you,

explaining your pain 50 times will never change their heart.


The only language a disrespected heart needs to speak is quiet, immediate and permanent removal of your access.

Never let your loyalty turn into self-betrayal.


The moment a person realizes you will tolerate their disrespect,  the way they treat you changes forever.

And I need you to understand this clearly.

    1. I see it's selling for $225 new, that is ridiculous. Find a cheaper copy.
      Buy second hand. Search for it.

    3. But the same advice applies to any form of abuse, whether it's your spouse or a relative or a "friend" who is not really a friend at all.
