Boundary Drift
Boundary drift happens when you get into the habit of letting yourself or your partner slide across a boundary without comment, i.e. coming home an hour later than you said you would, so is spending more than the agreed amount for a new winter coat. Hiding the amount is another.
Boundary drift is a combination of the violation and the absence of attempts by either spouse to address it. You drift along not taking responsibility for yourself and not holding your partner accountable. The dead space between the two of you when you don’t act responsibly or talk honestly is cause for boundary drift.
