Setting boundaries and expectations - Teach people how to treat you

YOUR DAILY JUMPSTART When boundaries are set, there's an expectation that they will be respected, and setting boundaries helps us know what to expect in our relationship. Having agreed-upon boundaries and expectations gives partners a layer of security in the relationship that helps build trust. While expectations are specific outcomes that are anticipated, boundaries are less restricting and allow the space for various outcomes which leads to less disappointment. That is because boundaries take into account different factors such as perspectives, situations, and other challenges.
