The disappointment will be difficult
Even if you explain your reasoning behind setting up boundaries, you may still sense deep disappointment on the part of your sibling. Your sibling may even still make you feel guilty – not necessarily intentionally, but the guilt can still be there. But that’s not the time to take down your boundaries, to appease your sibling. “Take space when you need it,” says Watson, adding “Accept that the emotions that you might experience related to the relationship with the sibling are really difficult.”
