Okay so I’ve never had a problem making friends until now, well I guess I’m not exactly the easiest either bc im so anxious and so quiet. Except all throughout my life I’ve always ended up losing them after a certain amount of time. When I was a kid it was probably the longest amount of time I had the same friends (8 years) when I was a teenager I had a different group that only lasted like 4 years but that wasn’t bc of me, we all jus drifted apart(bc of my bpd that I only got diagnosed with a few months ago) Now I’m having trouble making friends bc my ex spread bad rumors about me and now I feel like everyone hates me and having bpd on top of that makes it so so much worse. I do have 1 genuine good friend and multiple acquaintances (that I’m not close w at all) but I don’t have like a group of genuine friends that I’d die to have. Anyone have any tips on how to make friends while having bpd and not end up fucking it up? I’m so scared of messing up w the one good friend I do have. Quarantine has also made this so much worse.
