Narcissistic abusers are notorious for boundary violating and disrespecting their partners, friends, children etc. victims may not realize they are being violated and therefore make excuses, back down, or even allow for boundary violations which slowly erode, weaken, and destroy confidence and self esteem. It is imperative to heal oneself and build a sense of healthy self so that boundary violations become more evident and better boundary are able to be set. This along with learning to say no and push back towards disrespectful people will allow for better boundaries and untimely better emotional well-being.
