FAQs
Should we define this over text?
Yes. Text creates clear written expectations.
What if one person catches feelings?
Address it early and renegotiate or end respectfully.
Can firm boundaries ruin the vibe?
Healthy boundaries usually improve trust and reduce confusion.
Can I use this message in a phone call instead of text?
Yes. Keep the same core point and shorten it to one or two clear sentences for spoken delivery.
When should I switch to a firmer tone?
Use firm tone after your boundary has been stated clearly and is still ignored. Repeat once, then follow through.
