I am new to this site and this is my first post but i felt i needed somewhere to turn as i recently came out of a theraputic community and am in between nothing at the minute.

Anyway myself and my partner both have borderline personality disorder, things have been tough between us for a while and we have come close to seperating before but agreed to give it a go as the reason for us splitting is so that we dont hurt each other. I believe we still love each other but it is so difficult and i think that part of me just wants to run and hide because it is easier. I have hid all my life and have only ever been myself around him. I just feel that all i do is hurt him and if we split he will eventually get over the pain and i can just bury my head in the sand.

He wants me to carry on living here just as friends because he says he doesnt want to have a life without me to me that would be too difficult especially when i still love him. There is far more to this but i dont want to bore you all
