Boundaries

I'm really glad I put my foot down that I needed space from my bf.  It is important to take times to determine my feelings and needs.  I need time to myself.  I am currently trying to not compare myself to him.  I am an introvert, I don't like to be surrounded by too much socializing, I get burned out and overwhelmed.  I see he is not like me in that regard, and it is "easy" to feel less than or like I'm missing out.  But I really like my reading and writing and meditation and time to myself and solitude and stuff. And I consider him very busy for my taste.  Anyway now it will be a test to see if he is going to continue to honor my space. It is up to me to keep boundaries and my lack of doing that can lead me to become sort of angry, when I let my boundary down and miss out on my plans for myself to be social with him. And I don't reach out to very many other people that is for sure, I need to work on that.  And when I always say yes to him that leaves me overwhelmed and not reaching out to others.
