Some people may be under the impression that being respectful is the same as being "nice" or letting others have what they want all the time. To me, being respectful involves acknowledging your fellow human being as having as much worth as you and acting accordingly. It doesn't mean losing your boundaries or agreeing with someone out of a sense of obligation. These are good reminders, Alex, but I’m wondering how you define respectful.
