Get comfortable setting sexual boundaries
Our boundaries are important, but they become even more important where our sexual and intimate needs are involved.
by: E.B. Johnson
When it comes to forming any relationship, our boundaries are crucial. Boundaries help us to protect our physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing. They also help us to communicate our expectations and what we want and need from other people. Too often though, we forget to apply these boundaries to our intimate relationships. That’s often where they become most important, however. This is especially true when it comes to what’s going on in our intimate lives.
You have to set boundaries for yourself in the bedroom, and boundaries for your partner too. Before you can begin this process, though, you need to understand how your lack of boundaries can take a toll or cause you injury in the long term. Building stronger intimate relationships doesn’t require us to always give in to the wishes of our partners. It requires us to stand strong beside our needs and beliefs, so that we can find ways to compromise with (and enjoy) one another.
