Healthy boundaries in relationships

So, I've been discussing with some friends about boundaries and relationships. What it means for me? That I can occupy the position in my life that I want, and I invite people to take part in my life in healthy ways (boundaries are not for pushing away people). I see many new posters talk about a lot of problems that relate so much into establishing good boundaries and communicating them early on. I see friend with problems even at work for not knowing how to have and communicate boundaries. Hell, I've been guilty of it myself. It's hard to find where to draw the line whilst still opening up emotionally and get challenged in a healthy way by your partner!
