What do you do when people don't respect your boundaries? Do you feel guilty? Do you feel like you pushing people away? Or do you surround yourself with people that are more understanding/respectful/mature? If someone doesn't understand that you need to recharge as an introvert, do you feel like you have to over explain yourself?

I don't need to explain myself. Thankfully, most of my friends are 'I' type so they know the duty. Even the 'E' also understand when I need to recharge my energy.

If someone new has not respected my boundaries, I do explain them to them and let them know their importance to me. If they continue disrespecting them, I discontinue the communication. I don't need such people in my life. Yes, I have surrounded myself with people who are mature, understanding and respectful. That's the type of people I want around. If it's a new person, and they don't understand my need for recharging then I do explain it. To others that I know, and complete strangers, I do not.

I let myself be pushed a little, by choice, because I know that I will harm myself emotionally by not allowing that. But if someone isn't respecting my boundaries then I shut them out of my life pretty fast. I don't make a drama out of it, I just stop interacting and then I answer if they have any questions

Scorpio

When people dont respect ny boundries, (depending on which one it is, a serious one or a "lighter" one) i tell them my boundries if it is a serious one. Guilty because of it? No i dont think so. Do i feel like i push people away? No, but if the boundry that was set pushes them away, i cant do much about it. I do surround myself the best i can with people who are understanding and respectful and mature. If someone doesnt understand that i need to recharge as an introvert, ill explain normally. Not quite sure what you mean by over explaining though.

Stop Apologizing for Evolving.

You aren't "difficult" just because you finally started saying no to things that used to drain you. The only people who are mad at your growth are the ones who benefited from your lack of boundaries.

Be humble and never think you are better than anyone else... One day, we will all leave this world with nothing...

No matter how high you rise, remember where you started... Titles, money, and achievements are temporary but character is what remains...
