It hurts like hell. And the day after a fight like this, everything's back to normal and we can just feel genuinly happy, cuddling in each other's arms again. How do you handle these kind of emotional rollercoasters? Have any of you been in a relationship with another borderline before?
Also, is there anyone else on here who finds it EXTREMELY hard to express positive feelings? I'm not used to it... there's so much I want to tell A and not a single minute goes by without me thinking about how ****ing much I love her. I know she wants to hear it, but I just become speechless everytime I try to tell her. The feelings are too strong.

i did try, but we didn't make it to the relationship part ( i was the more intense of the two of us) so it blew up before it had a chance.
i really did think it was a good idea because i thought she would "get' me and we could support each other through our meltdowns. but i just wanted too much, needed too much and i guess she wasn't emotionally prepared for all that.
i have found it is pretty much impossible for me to manage the emotional roller coasters, i did give it a good go though.
