Tuesday’s Life-Coaching Truth TAG: Rigidity in boundaries drives us to unrealistic expectations I love what Darlene Lance, MFT, says about rigidity In the book Co-dependency for Dummies. She says If your boundaries are rigid or thick for self-protection, you end up lonely out of fear because you haven’t learned to protect yourself. You’re distant and seem incapable of vulnerability and your relationships are guided by inflexible rules and lack sharing. In other words, if we have rigid boundaries, we tend to be overly critical of ourselves, and thus others, place unrealistic expectations on ourselves, and thus others. How do you know if you have rigid boundaries? Let me ask you: in any of your relationships, do you experience loneliness often? Are you able to be vulnerable, really, with those closest to you? We’d love to come alongside you in our next Life-Experience class, Learning to Understand and be Understood where you will be coached, mentored and encouraged to live more flexibly and less rigidly with healthy boundaries and reasonable expectations…on yourself and others.
