How I Navigate Boundaries and Interact with Female Admirers – Daniel Etim-Effiong
Daniel Etim-Effiong, a well-known actor, recently shared his thoughts on maintaining healthy relationships and managing the attention he receives from female admirers, particularly with his wife, Toyosi. He reflected on how he has evolved in handling these situations throughout the years.
Etim emphasized the significance of setting clear boundaries and being self-aware in managing his relationships. One of the key issues he’s worked on is addressing his “saviour complex,” where he felt the need to help and emotionally support everyone around him.
Toyosi asked him about the measures he has put in place to protect himself from the chaos and unpredictability that comes with fame. Etim responded by stating that he has always had strategies in place to deal with these challenges, but over time, they have only gotten better as he’s grown and matured.
He explained that he can’t be there for everyone who needs help or support. He realized that he can’t be the emotional support or savior for every person who admires him. This understanding has allowed him to maintain healthier boundaries and relationships.
As Etim continues to grow older, he feels more confident in his ability to handle difficult situations. He’s learned to recognize his limits and set boundaries, allowing him to focus on the important relationships in his life, especially with his wife.
