It’s been about 10 years since I was diagnosed with BPD and I can honesty say it has made relationships with people very rocky. I think my biggest issue is that I always want what is best for people and when things go south or Rocky I start to split. Either I’ll fight for a person to stay or I fight for that person to leave. For the few people that have stayed and remained in touch with they understand but it gets lonely because most of the people are long distance. When meeting new people I always have that internal struggle of whether or not having BPD is something I should be upfront with or if it’s something to wait to tell. In my experience either approach usually has the same end result with a rocky relationship. I guess now I am stuck I am not close with my family anymore. I have a few friends who understand and I am single. Having bpd has made my relationship with girls hard and I don’t blame those who have left.
