So the two questions I would like to ask are these.
1. Do you think people with BPD are manipulative sometimes, but by complete accident or rather, do not realise or intend the manipulation occuring.
2. Do think people with BPD are a lot more easily manipulative, possibly due to the lack of sense of self.
Any insights would be interesting.
Thank you

Yes, not on purpose though. We do it unconsciously not with the intent of hurting anybody. I think people with BPD are generally pretty honest, but with the possibility of punishment we can be manipulative.
Personally I'm too honest I only lie under threats of punishment.
