Developing Confidence in Establishing Personal Boundaries and Needs in International Relationships

international relationship

Stressful relationships occur when someone crosses your boundaries or fails to meet your needs. These boundaries can be difficult to assert in an international relationship, wouldn’t you agree?

In a healthy international relationship, you’re happy when you strike a balance: You know how to get your needs met; meanwhile, you also know how to set boundaries in love.

Communicate your needs to your partner tactfully.

The prerequisite of meeting your needs is crystal-clear communication, i.e., your partner knows what your needs are and how to meet them. But it doesn’t mean you must directly tell your partner exactly what your needs are and exactly what she should do to meet your needs because interactions shouldn’t feel like reading a boring textbook. Instead, you’d better communicate your standards to your partner – your standards are your needs in an international relationship. Here are some examples:

  • “Family is very important to me. I would love to start a family with you within 3 years.”
  • “Variety is the spice of life. In order to strengthen our connection, we need more shared experiences. Let’s travel together once a year.”
  • Set boundaries by tactfully disagreeing with her.

Don’t agree with everything she says if you disagree. Truthfully, having an opinion is an attractive quality. Therefore, if you actually disagree with your partner, you should let her know. This is also a perfect opportunity to set clear boundaries with her.

Here are several examples:

  • Spending quality time with friends is paramount. But I don’t think having friends in our house until 3am every Friday is right because sleep is important to our physical and mental health. Let’s catch up with friends on Saturday afternoon instead.
  • You don’t need to know my social media passwords because if there’s a problem, we should deal with the problem. Realistically, no issue is resolved by knowing social media passwords.

How to build a sense of enoughness:

People-pleasing is a sign of not feeling enough. Actually, you don’t need to go overboard trying to make your partner happy. You should avoid overdoing it when it comes to meeting your partner’s needs.

Lack of confidence is often caused by a lack of competence, which can make it difficult to communicate cleanly and clearly with your partner. To become more competent and build confidence, adopt a mindset that helps you develop a sense of enoughness. Let me show you how.

  1. As a man, you need to be in charge of your happiness. Women are not your rehab. You are 100% responsible for your life and your happiness.
  • When you’re firm with decisions, your heart needs to be open.
  • At times, you’d better give a woman pushback so she feels protected by her man, not her little boy. 😊

In conclusion, effective communication is the foundation for getting your needs met and setting boundaries in an international relationship. When real competence backs up your core confidence, you feel sufficient.
