The Situation
"He crosses my boundaries and says I'm being dramatic"
The Brutal Truth
When he crosses your boundaries and calls you dramatic, he's dismissing your feelings and disrespecting your needs. This behavior is toxic and manipulative. He wants to control the narrative instead of respecting your boundaries, making his intentions very clear: your needs don’t matter to him.
