LIFE BOUNDARY 84 words
Set the boundary without the eight-paragraph explainer
You want to say no but you can feel the eight-paragraph justification coming. Give it the context, the person and the limit you are setting, and it writes a short message that names the boundary, gives one reason if needed, and stops. Kind, clear, and closed to negotiation unless you decide otherwise.
