talesin: Now, it's up to us whether we choose to get closer to people as we learn more about them. Learning what our personal boundaries are, and where we want to draw the line, is key.
Love this! Everyone has a point where acceptance becomes tolerance. Everyone has a point beyond which they will not even tolerate. The key is finding those points in ourselves and communicating those point honestly to others, so there are no surprises if they press the proverbial point.
