i get back by being true to myself..if someone is going against my true self i get them the hell out of my life

Yes all my life. But then one day I finally woke up and said the bully will continue to bully if I let them and why in hell would I let them. This is my life not yours *&*!?%.

There has never been a legitimate reason for fighting. I just learned where to set my boundaries and ask that those in my life respect them. If they choose not to respect my boundaries, I choose to remove them from my life or at least limit the amount of influence they have.

Yes, but not in a romantic relationship.
I decided to stand up and fight back, to stop being the victim I'd been made to feel like I was, and offensively act, rather than defensively. Things have gone much better for me in that unfortunate relationship. |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() yeah, when my daughter started getting older and heavier i didnt have to start fighting back when i wanted her to stop, just said "daddy back cant take you walking it anymore" felt sooooo good to have her walk on my back though |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() They were only walking on me because I let them. Once I set new boundaries (and stuck to them! That was the hard part.) the problem, and the person, just went away after a while. She & I eventually stopped speaking altogether. No big loss. ![]() |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Its not about fighting back. Its about learning to set limits and boundaries. Learning how to say "no" in an assertive, non-aggressive way. And, learning how to cut your losses and get away with your self respect if it can't be accomplished in a way that won't get you into trouble or mess you up. |
