I am in my early 30s and was recently diagnosed with BPD. It has been revelatory; especially when it comes to my struggles forming and maintaining relationships.

Me and (who I will refer to as) P originally met in a professional capacity, and during our meetings we had a lot of fun conversations about shared interests and hobbies. I felt like we vibed together. When our time together in this capacity came to an end P was kind enough to suggest staying in touch and offered to add me on Facebook.

Its now been about 6-7 months since we connected on FB and I have sent a few messages here and there, there was some back and forth, but recently I suggested I would like to meet up sometime to catch up, honestly because I really think we could be friends. We weren't able to initially settle on plans because of our schedules so I kind of panicked and the conversation has stopped.

I worry about things like: did she only offer to connect over FB as a professional courtesy and she isn't actually interested in keeping up? should I clarify that I'm not asking her out on a date? I suggested that bringing other friends would be fine, the more the merrier. I just know that as the winter weather rolls in and sunlight is more scarce, it limits my options as far as coming up with plans goes. I do still feel like she may be receptive, but I don't know how to start the conversation back up again. Should I just say "hey! i'd still like to meet up sometime if you're interested"?

Any advice on how to broach this is appreciated. I probably sound way too out there, lol
