Hi all. I guess I'll just get to the point. I have Borderline Personality Disorder, and my husband has Schizoid Personality Disorder. We've been together for over five years, married for six months. We are, as people, as compatible as two people can be. We are completely and totally in love. When things are good, they are amazing beyond description. But when the disorders come into play, everything changes. We've taken several breaks from our relationship, and are on one now. It's never my idea/need. I want communication; he's emotionally detached. I won't explain every detail of BPD and SPD, but those of you who know the symptoms... I'm not sure what I'm hoping for here, but I just need to get it out. I feel like I can't live with or without him, and it's making me crazy. I love him more than anything... but it isn't easy. But it's worth it... to me, anyway. But at what price?
