Many of us have to impose boundaries in our work and in our relationships. Boundaries are guide lines by which you proceed in your communications or in your actions. How far can you or should you go to within a relationship before you step into someone else's space. A space that may be physical or imagined.You need to look at the reasons for the actions, are they self serving? Which is a major intuition into some one's space.Or is it an honest empathic action to impress a "I understand" were you are idea. there is a fine line, are you helping or hurting are you creating a victim or empowering some one?
The choice is your's, you know yourself best. Once the choice is made and if it is positive then you are feeling good and feeling relaxed. You are in a win-win situation, empowering others as well as yourself. You cannot feel good and feel stressed at the same time.
