I feel like I'm constantly meeting people and falling deeply in love with them only to feel hurt and resentful when they don't return my admiration with equal intensity. It isn't their fault but I feel like BPD is the "[Are You My Mother?](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Are_You_My_Mother%3F)" syndrome. If you aren't familiar with that Dr. Seuss book it's about a baby bird who hatches and goes around trying to find his missing mother, ultimately getting himself into a dangerous situation before reuniting with her. I feel like that is a good analogy for how I go about interacting with people. I'm looking for the unconditional love that I didn't have as a child in all the wrong places.
