You have a difficult time setting boundaries and standards for yourself, don’t you? You’ve got no problem telling a friend or a loved one that they deserve better in their relationships, so why is it so hard for you to tell yourself the same thing?

This is one of the biggest challenges that my clients face, they have a hard time drawing a line in the same and saying: “Sorry, I will no longer accept this kind of treatment.”

I believe, though, there’s an unseen layer to the problem as well: Simply not even knowing what healthy love looks like.

It’s not your fault if you didn’t have healthy or stable love modeled to you growing up, nor is it your fault if society has let you down by giving you unfair or unrealistic expectations about love — let alone actively showing unhealthy examples.

That’s what this article is for, to help clearly define treatment that you should not be accepting in your relationships.

There are too many people out there who are willing and able to be healthy, stable, and loving partners for you to be giving your time to people who engage in the behaviors we’ll discuss below.

🚩 1: They make you “prove” your value to them.
