Need & PreferenceFantasy, Kink & ExplorationSensitive Topic

Roleplay Boundaries refer to the personal or shared limits that define how imagined roles or scenarios are explored within intimate or relational contexts.

What This Really Means

Roleplay Boundaries describe how individuals separate imagination from comfort, consent, and expectation.

They are closely connected to Fantasy Boundaries and Emotional Safety, as clear limits support trust during imaginative exploration.

Within a relationship assessment platform, roleplay boundaries are inferred from patterns of openness, hesitation, and clarity around acceptable scenarios.
