When someone is communicating a boundary.
It’s not a fucking conflict, it’s a boundary.
They are communicating how they want to be treated and what is acceptable and not acceptable.

If you really love me, you’ll respect it.
If there’s any kinda shady unethical behaviour, that makes you a joker.
And the door is open.
