if anyone has a comment on this I would welcome it......

I have a sibling, A, who is married to B, and has several children.
Have not seen them for a while but we got together over the holidays. B looked terrible and when we were apart from the crowd I asked, what’s up? B said, I have been seeing someone for depression. There is something ungodly going on in our marriage and if I told you about it, it would completely change the way you feel about A.
B said, my therapist is encouraging me to tell you about it. what do you think?
I said, I don’t know, let me think about it.

When I went to see T I related all this, and she looked very concerned and said, "this sounds like a real boundary issue".

I didn’t understand her response, but I didn’t press her any farther. I know T is not going to tell me what to do; but I really have a hard time understanding the concept of boundaries and I don’t know what she meant.
