Just as you have your boundaries, so too does your partner. As you talk about your needs and limitations, encourage your partner to think about where she may draw the line and what boundaries she may have. Be open and receptive to what your partner has to say, and let them feel comfortable with talking about them to you. Once you know what those boundaries are, you can talk about potential friction points, seek solutions to areas of disagreement, and find a place where you both can bond and grow without crossing either your boundaries or your partner's.
