palemoss it's good you are learning in therapy ways to change self-destructive behaviors. i did too.
as for your guy, maybe take it slow. you need to continue to work on those things that you discovered in therapy before you can have a meaningful relationship, imo. if it were me i'd not want to lay it out there-bpd-as yet. it just complicates everything. you're not being dishonest you're just protecting yourself at this time. many ppl have no understanding of our disorders. it scares them. give it time and continue to work on yourself. you can still enjoy him and his company.
