Personal boundaries are important for several reasons. If you’ve been through a divorce, you may realize that your ability to set personal boundaries could use some work. Boundaries serve as barriers to protect your self-esteem. They are also tools for establishing limits with others and communicating that you won’t tolerate certain behaviors. Those without personal boundaries commonly end up in less than ideal situations and relationships.

Without limits, you’re a victim to the whims of those around you. Personal boundaries are about respecting yourself and demanding respect from others.
