TL;DR:

I keep forming crushes on new friends of any gender when I already have a BF. Please help


Hi guys,

I'm a 22yr old woman and I was diagnosed with bpd at 20 years old. 

I've been with my boyfriend for over a year and I realised that  I spend too much time with him. It's straining our relationship because I pretty much get all my socialisation from him so I get upset when he tries to spend time with friends. 

I know that's toxic so I want to have a more balanced life with him and spread how I spend my time. I have my own hobbies and pet that I love hanging with.

I'm making new friends but I have an issue - I keep developing crushing on them. Has anyone else experienced this? The potential friend's gender doesn't matter since I am attracted to personality and their gender isn't a factor I consider when it comes to friends/romantic relationships.

Any insight or advice would be appreciated.
