Personality boundaries - this is a person's comfort zone. Each of us builds our boundaries so that we feel comfortable and safe.
Boundaries are physical, spatial, temporal, sexual, emotional, spiritual, value, ethical, there are boundaries of private property.
Usually the manipulator wants to establish control over the victim, and therefore regularly, systematically makes attempts to violate or "push" other people's borders.
The situation arises as with deprivation of virginity. A man who has deprived a girl of virginity, allegedly endowed with the unspoken right to enter into sexual relations with her at his first "desire", feels like a copyright holder. If a girl expresses disagreement, insults and humiliation are directed at her: "Why are you making a" virgin "out of yourself," pierced "after all?"
And the girl, feeling ashamed, thinks: "Indeed, I am not the same as before. And if so, it is not clear what is possible, what is not?" An attitude is formed towards oneself as a spoiled thing.
So it is with borders. Having allowed one time to violate their boundaries, a person, often, can not refuse further. After all, once he allowed to do some kind of action with him, to influence his attitudes, and if he did, then it’s possible again, so it’s okay?
So, the man for the first time allowed himself an insulting statement about a woman, she said nothing, not wanting to stir up a conflict. Not receiving a harsh rebuff, the man continued to insult, and each time his words became more and more nasty, and his behavior more and more disgusting.
The mother helped her daughter more than once, looking after her grandson, while she worked, sacrificing her plans. When once again the mother refused to help, because there was a need to go to the hospital, the daughter was offended at her, expressed her indignation: "Before, after all, you did not go to the hospital, somehow lived? And now you let me down?"
A man, walking with a woman, spoke to her for a long time about love and kinship of souls, and, at some point, unexpectedly suggested: "I met an interesting lady here. I would like you to have sex with her. You will do it for the sake of me, darling, considering that my birthday is coming soon?"
One friend offered another to sniff heroin. When a friend refused, an offended phrase followed: "Well, I tried it. Don't you want to support me?"
At a corporate party, the director, knowing the employee's family values, persuaded him to have sex with a secretary.
The boss of the company constantly nagged at the employee, hinting that she could atone for her mistakes with intimacy. The employee shied away. On New Year's Eve, he called her and offered to come to his house dressed as a Snow Maiden. Another evasion of the woman led to her dismissal.
A person who has betrayed himself, his principles, can lose respect for himself, lose his inner supports, fall under the influence of a manipulator and even become dependent on him.
The manipulator can violate your time boundaries, constantly being late or, conversely, being ahead of time, violate physical boundaries (for example, during the session, the psychologist sat the client on his lap and talked like a daughter), friends can abuse your help and hospitality, in In a store, the seller can impose unnecessary goods, toxic emotions, immoral acts, etc. can be imposed.
I remember my case, when the driver of the company, whose job was to deliver me and other employees on business, began to offer sex. After the refusal and the designation of hard boundaries, the driver said that he refused to take me and dropped me out of the car. It is clear that, in addition to my boundaries, it was also a violation of professional boundaries, as a result of which administrative measures followed.
Violation of personal boundaries is always fraught with consequences, sometimes very serious.
