I recently moved in with my best friend of 7 years, and we've always just clicked and she's one of the people who has stuck by me despite of my outbursts, and she's never triggered one in me either. But she's lived in this town for two years, and has made friends who are amazing. She introduced them to me and they wanted to be my friend too, but now it seems like she's gatekeeping them. I understand that they were her friends first, but the way she's being shady about it towards me has made me spiral. She got mad one day and told me she doesn't even recognize me when they're around, and I don't think she realizes how gut-wrenching that is to someone with BPD because I often DO struggle with having my own personality/reality. It's called borderline PERSONALITY disorder for a reason. Ever since then, I have been distant from her new friends out of respect (and fear of her being mad again) but they always ask me why I never go out with them because they want to see me. Instead, I'm now alone all the time, which only makes the mental part of it worse. I'm a social butterfly and I like having a lot of friends, but to feel so unwanted by my BEST friend.... ouch. Any advice?
