I concentrate on myself when with a BPD friend. I enjoy helping myself stay "constant" as I can and learn to recognize what are my issues and the other person's, etc. Staying as calm and straight-forward and "true" to myself as I can seems to help the other person.

I am so deeply in love with my girlfriend. She has BPD. I have been trying to educate myself on this disorder. I feel I have a good grasp on the characteristics of BPD.... I need help on how to handle the characteristics when they arise. My biggest problem is convincing her I love her and do not plan on leaving her. When ANYTHING

Hey there!
As a BPD sufferer I would most probably say, always try and put her first and make her feel special! Good luck - the guys that stand by us are the good ones!!! I have been married for 14 years and my husband now knows exactly what to do!! he-heee Good luck

That constant reassurance will help a lot...
Somethings that were problems for me not sure if they would be the same in your situation - most are preventive in nature...so I'm not sure I'll be answering what you are looking for... 1. Try to always be on time - being late was a big problem 2. Try to avoid making sudden changes in plans 3. Can't seem to think of any more at this time. Having said that...you can't walk on eggshells all the time... Probably best to preplan senerios that deal with changes and being late - it is unrealistic to think things won't change (except for me of course)... There is more - just wanted to see if I'm helping...
