Do the men set the boundaries of a relationship?

"Men have boundaries, Men have backbones"
I heard a guy say that today. Meaning in a relationship sense he wasn't getting ordered around. So, should men set the boundaries in a relationship?

I honestly do not think one person will dictate a _healthy_ relationship...

As it is a relationship between two individuals who each having their own mind andlife experience desires needs interests fears wisdom ethics- which they bring to the relationship- will and should each have their own boundaries which should be communicated and respected to and by each partner, in my opinion 😌

Also for myself I would personally never base my relationship dynamic on a meme 🤷‍♀️🙃😉😊

I hope not. If people are going to enter a relationship then they should both set boundaries TOGETHER. I don't know why everyone wants things to be so one sided.

Thank you

I think the only successful relationships are where men have backbones hence they have boundaries and a limit they won’t be pushed back, if you’re a pussy or she wears the pants she’s gunna get bored with u quick

Everyone should have boundaries but women typically define theirs first.

[SHH21899]

yes and no, it should be a "we set the boundaries" the old closed minded way of thinking are for those that are okay with being ordered around and having no say in where your relationship goes. equality starts within. AS a person boundaries and saying I need time to myself to unwind from a stressful day is a whole other thing

[RussianNestingDoll]

It’s been my personal experience because I’ve been with some of the worst people, that men will keep pushing to dominate the relationship unless women make it too difficult for them. The more insecure a guy is, the more aggressive he will get. I don’t want to be with someone I need to keep putting the boundaries up with. He needs to have the good sense not to put my patience to the test. Good boundaries are something you either have or you don’t.

It should be very equal. Far too often girls get very pushy and demanding. aka happy wife, happy life. But it should not really be that way. You both should be happy and compromise. Men should not set the boundaries of a relationship but neither should women. It is up to both to do it together.

[MlleCake]

Should? There's no should. A relationship should work for the two people involved, and it doesn't matter who sets the boundaries. What matters is that it allows both people to grow as people.

[rgb008]

who ever said that hasn't met u!!
very powerful.
I can't see any man setting boundaries for u

[winterfox10]

Both partners do. Women set the pace of the relationship, and men give it the fuel it needs to keep going. Both partners set boundaries though... I think women tend to struggle with setting boundaries, more so than men.

[Mia_pearl]

There’s a difference between being ordered around and making decisions together. I believe in making decisions together because we are a couple after all

[Whaler]

Depends on the area and the relationship. Some people want the man as the back bone others don’t, really depends on the man.

[thechesseman]

Each person sets their own boundaries for the relationship. It's an agreement not an order.

[ZeussLightningBolt]

I think it's better if the woman do it. Men have too much authority in relationships already.

[VIVANT]

How do you figure that?

[Wowgirl30q]

@ZeussLightningBolt

[Wowgirl30q]

Thank you for making me smile,

[ZeussLightningBolt]

Do you have boyfriend Ms. Wow?

[Wowgirl30q]

@VIVANT Mr Zeus he's a good dude he's masculine and such. Just lazy it seems 😂

[ZeussLightningBolt]

[VIVANT]

It was an honest question.. I’m genuinely curious about what he was referring to 🤨😐🤷‍♀️

I don't know what to tell her. I guess because in my household my father was always the boss of the family even controlling when my mom can go shopping, because he has "debts" to pay.
I've also been exposed to a lot of cultures where men boss their wives

[Wowgirl30q]

That's cool she was just curious

[Poormanscomedian]

Which ever has the most confidence dictates direction of relationship. I can see by your pic , that you a lot of confidence.

[Wowgirl30q]

Their implants lol

[Triple7s]

Yea we decide when it is ok to eat cake and brownies

[Slim57]

It seems it's either the man or woman, there's rarely any in between how it should be

[StickStickity13]

Both should set their own boundaries

[abc3643]

Generally, we don't think like that.

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

I want ordered around by a Woman.. LMAO
