Here are a few examples of boundaries that can be set around draining relationships
Limiting phone calls
To avoid uncomfortable conversations during prolonged phone calls, it's advisable to set a time limit and maintain a concise and clear conversation.
Not responding after a deadline
Communication, like work emails or phone calls, should be given a specific time limit, and responses should be made within that time for the partner.
Financial support
When providing financial support to a partner, it is crucial to ensure that our own bills and needs are also met.
Listening
Instead of acting as an immediate advisor, it's crucial to be a good listener, as sometimes partners need someone to listen to more than advice.
Spending time apart
During challenging times, it's acceptable to take a break and deviate from the relationship, as this time can provide clarity and understanding.
