Also, people with BPD have been shown to be very poor at recognizing facial expressions, so maybe that is something they also get better at over time.

Thank you so much for responding
i agree it seems like the choices BPD people make will only go down well if it has a positive response. If it has negative feedback thats when things seem to get out of hand. Interesting i never knew that they are very poor with facial expressions, if someone with BPD looks you in the face do you think they subconsciously know what it means but just ignores their instincts or is it simply they can't decipher them?
Thank you again
