What are some good consequences for breaking boundaries?

Question

I've heard and read about this before but do not know how to apply these boundaries and consequences to them.
How do I make consequences for an adult spouse who breaks boundaries (like no verbal abuse, no lies, etc.), consequences that he will honor and respect? Can anyone give examples from worst case to best case scenarios?

Answer 1

divorce seems like a fairly common consequence

Answer 2

I'm not very clear on the question, but the best thing to do is talk it out. Your partner may have some built up hurt or angry toward you or another person in his or her life/past. You married that person for a reason. So, don't give up on something good. Pray for your partner and you all relationship. The MOST important thing to remember is you are not his/her mother or father the words consequences and breaking boundaries seems like your trying to ground him/ her and that doesn't work...it will only drive the person away. He/she is an adult and will make there own decisions regardless of what you do to punish them. Also, don't ignore the signs God give you and never settle...if you really feel he or she has lied, cheated, and abuses you in anyway, and after you have really tried to work things out and things don't change after awhile...Move on! You deserve the best...There are plenty men and or women that will treat you with respect, honor you as a person, and most of all except your faults! Good luck and your in my prayers.
