How Do You Know if Your Boundaries Have Been Crossed?

The best way to know if one of your boundaries is being crossed is to notice how you feel in everyday situations. If you feel a negative emotion, like resentment or anger, then that is a sign your boundaries have been crossed. For example, if a friend asks to borrow your car and you really do want to lend it to them, you might feel happy that you could help them out. You're going to feel pleased that they asked you and even go out of your way to make sure that they get your keys.
