Balancing Boundaries with Kindness
Over the last couple of years, I have developed an unofficial, almost subconscious policy of not pursuing friendships with people when I don't like their partners. I didn't realize I had this policy until a new person (BL) showed up at S&B and brought her husband with her. He was extremely unpleasant, obnoxious even. And I knew then that I just don't want to ever again be in a position where a friend's spouse is horrible to me, or even just extremely unpleasant to be around, and I tolerate it because I love my friend. I don't ever again want to volunteer to interact with shitty or abusive people.
