Boundaries are needed in life to protect things (and people) that are important to you. Not only are boundaries a good thing for your marriage and family, but boundaries are also needed for oneself personally. Oftentimes, the personal boundary gets overlooked in marriage and that’s when the relationship starts to break down. Emotional lines are crossed because they have never been established (or enforced) in the marriage.
Perhaps you’re dealing with some verbal and/or emotional abuse in your marriage because you don’t like conflict or confrontation, you’ve lost your voice, or you don’t have the spine to speak up for yourself and protect your soul. Just know that doing the same thing over and over will not change the current behavior in your marriage.
A prudent person foresees danger and takes precautions. The simpleton goes blindly on and suffers the consequences. Proverbs 22:3 NLT
