Went out with a very fine lady the other night and had a drink with her. I texted her saying how nice of a time I had. I didn't panic when it too her 30 minutes to agree that she had a nice time. I didn't try to smother her with texts from the responses. And there was a natural ending point to the conversation and I didn't try to keep texting her.

It was very difficult, and I'm still anxious that things might not work out. But I at least didn't let the BPD win today. Now please excuse me while I think up of all the ways she doesn't like me.
