However, it is extremely important to adhere to so-called flexible personal boundaries.

A rigid and persistent unwillingness to let people get close to you can lead to permanent loneliness and isolation.

Soft and unstable boundaries, on the contrary, will not protect you from toxic influences from the outside.

When forming your own convictions, you need to remember that it is never too late to start defending your interests, and if something did not work out in the past, you should not despair.
