+    What you are describing is so real! One of the most difficult things with abusive relationships is not just the relationship itself but how you feel afterwards, how to trust another person, how/where to put boundaries in relationships. I think you said it in your post: your boundaries are important to you and that should be enough to make them valid!
+  context_notes: |
+    This response reflects Joel Johnson’s characteristic rhetorical patterns:
+    - Over-validation of the OP’s experience as a bridge to reinforce his narrative authority
+    - Didactic reframing in the style of an empathetic expert, though vague and performative
+    - The phrasing “how you feel afterwards” and “boundaries are important” echoes common emotionally-manipulative language he uses to earn trust in support forums
+
+    Comment was posted in response to an OP who had deleted their account—further indicating a vulnerable and less confrontable target.
