Its fucking horrendous to date someone with this.
Tried it.
Save yourself.
She may be wonderful now but mine operated on a six month cycle. Great half the year....
Your choice anon.

I have bpd. I'd be cautious about her saying she has it under control, I say that a lot, its not even lying its just at that moment I do feel like I have it under control. Being out of a relationship is a lot different for how we act than when we are in one too. She may be fine and is actually functioning well, however when she enters the relationship and it might take a bit, her bpd may show its true colors...since the whole thing with bpd is that we fear abandonment and we only really feel that abandonment when we're in a relationship, that might just be me though because I have heard of bpd fearing abandonment with all people.

I'd check to see if she is in therapy though or if she has been in it and for how long because bpd rarely goes away without it and it usually takes a couple years for the symptoms to really be under control. If she's acting kinda clingy from the start you might want to take that as a red flag that its only going to get worse.

Seconding this. Seen my uncle go through something similar, and I lived with a girl who clearly had it for about 5 years.

Mine began like something out of a cheesy movie.

It ended with her lying, cheating, and fighting about the dumbest shit imaginable. She tried to hit me (I ended that immediately), made me feel terrible about myself, and accused me of stuff that she was actually doing behind my back.

The grand finale involved her getting drunk with some of her friends (who hated me) and driving the car I purchased for her into a parked car at 5am.

Run.

The comparison to bipolar, that always get paraded around here is retarded. Bipolar is all about energy levels during a cycling of episodes - high and low. That is with lithium, sleep and taking care of yourself the bipolar person is normal, and only fucked during episodes.

BPD is a personality disorder. You can't take any medication that will directly help. Your problems are ingrained in your person, and your lack of being able to handle interpersonal relationships - something that is not a symptom of bipolar at all.

I'll take bipolar over borderline. One is having unreliable energy levels, the other is a manipulating shithead.

i swear if this isnt a bait post you're a fucking idiot

I was/am an idiot.

I still don't understand why I did the things I did back then. I think because I was inexperienced and had convinced myself I was in love, I was willing to essentially be a white-knight doormat.
