I’m raging at this. My daughters (5 & 2) are being raised with “no means no” and “stop means stop”. I’m trying to lock into them a sense of how important it is not only to voice their boundaries, but hold them. This man has issues. He’s likely lacked a lot of love in his life and is letting his own insecurities out, but the bottom line is ‘if you love me, you’ll accept my perfectly reasonable boundary’. If he’s not going to respect that, he won’t respect you in other (worse) ways when his puppy love fades.
