Here's a link to a site that has so far in my reading, proven to be pretty good. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" /> http://joy2meu.com/Personal_Boundaries.htmWe talk so much about setting up our boundaries on MB, and since I found this (after searching under emotional abuse), I wanted to share it with you all, in case it helped something to "click" for someone.

Topie- Thank you so much for this information- I saved it in my favorites so I can refer back to it. I had never even heard of setting personal boundaries at the time my H and I started counseling after his A. Our MC said that I had not set them from the start of our marriage 15 yrs ago and that was MY part of our marital problems over the years. I appreciate your posting this link! lifeismessy

I don't know what your religious beliefs are and it's none of my business. But this recommended website is a New Age site and they really don't promote keeping "rules" such as "Thou shalt not commit adultery". Those are considered out-of-date and "We are discovering the rules of the game that we have been playing for thousands of years by rules that don't work." -- from article on that site: Metaphysical Pages - A New Age of Healing & Joy. This is rooted in Humanism that states that sex is OK between CONSENTING people. Now perhaps not all people who profess these beliefs will commit adultery, but it is part of that belief system. As far as "rules that don't work", can anyone tell me how they don't?
