Short breakdown of what happened: I complained openly on a private social media site that shall remain nameless about somebody who I’m seeing, who has been speaking to me very calculatedly via text. Being that type of person myself (ugh) I noticed immediately. But that’s all I said.

The third comment was from some dude who said “most guys suck, but this sounds like BPD.” Wow, you have been able to diagnose this after reading two sentences? I’m a strict qBPD, but I was so offended and taken aback that I said fuck it and exposed myself. I wasn’t mean, didn’t go nuts, stayed in wise mind: I stated that he might watch it when maligning an entire group of people, especially because I am part of that group. Just an aside, this is someone who is PAYING to see my content.

I’m 30, so I don’t experience much of that “THEY HAVE BPD! Must be a MONSTER!” talk, unless I bring it up myself, which I don’t. 

How do you guys deal with this, and other situations like it without letting it slowly eat away at your soul? 

Love ya
