I give a lot of merit to the idea of manipulative behavior but at the same time I feell there is a very fine line between what manipulative behavior a bpd person does and what the rest of the world does. I'm sorry but I just feel like 99% of society is manipulative of other people period.
That being said I do realize this is a real aspect of the disorder, just not so simple to say every manipulative action you take is due to your bpd, it's hard to define IMHO.
While thinking about my own particular behaviors though of late and for various reasons that have surfaced recently I've made an inner commitment to take time to really think about the motives behind what I say and do and do everything in my power to say and do what I mean rather than not. Idk if this makes sense but in my tiny brain it does.
