Love enemy, turn the other cheek and boundaries?

Can you do this without losing all of your boundaries?

i think...turn the other cheek means don't do evil back, because it would cause more injury. And love your enemy - that's a tough one, maybe it means to pray for your enemy that god would have mercy on them from the evil the've done. Judgement on the evil, so i guess pray for enemy to have mercy on them from god punishment. That's just a thought, i think turning the other cheek means humility, and not fighting evil with evil.

jesus was whipped, and persecuted but he did no evil back, he just took the persecution. Praying for enemies i think means pray to have mercy on them from god's judgement of the evil the've done. This is tough subject, but that's all i can awner

you don't just sit there and wait for your enemy them come, you do fight back - turning the other means you would get beat to death, and you would allow it. Doing and being filled with hate, and rage, may be a diffrent story. Being in hateful rage all the time, that's a sin. You've let evil come into your body, and it turns excessive hate and rage.
