This isn't a post about hooking up or anything like that. I have been wondering for a while what it would be like to date someone who had the same symptoms and similar traumas as me. 

I would not mind it if my partner needed extra reassurance. Nor would it bother me if I was causally asked if I had interest or was seeing other people. Possibly because I understand that these sort of questions and the needing extra reassurance come from the internal view one has of themself. 

There is a big difference, yet a fine line, between needing reassurance and accusations. I wouldn't be with a person who couldn't let me leave the house without detailed information on why I have to be out, or got mad at me for going to see a friend. I wouldn't do that to my partner, either. 

One thing that makes my symptoms flair up though is having a partner who doesn't need reassurance. I wish I had the confidence and the lack of fear my partner has. I sometimes wonder why they don't have the same fears as me. Am I that sick? Does anybody else feel like they wish their partner was also borderline? Are there any borderline couples out there?
