Over the course of getting acquainted with a new person in my life it came to my attention that they suffered from BPD. After much time communicating over the nature of BPD with this person I've come to realize that I have likely been suffering from the same symptoms but never knew there was a such a label for it. The problem arises as the person I'm engaging with has been aware of their condition for some time and as a result is far better capable at managing themselves. Meanwhile they are my FP and I'm wonder is there a way for me to healthfully engage with this person moving forward or am I better off addressing my own symptoms before I can begin taking things further with this person?
