[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 176234, member: 1514"] Linda...I think you were referring to me instead of DDD...lol. I have borderline and I know I am not easy to live with. I think I am getting better and easier to live with as I age and have gotten into therapy. At least I hope so for my families sake. There is a good book for families called Walking on Eggshells that you might want to read. There are also some good websites for families of borderlines where you can get support. I will tell you one thing...one of the hallmarks of borderlines is that we push people away because we are scared to death that the other person is going to leave us so we want to be the first to do it. We are scared of allowing ourselves to really love someone fully. Trust is a major issue for us. We want to really badly but we take everything as a slight against us and proof that...aha...see there...YOU dont really love us and its proof that you cant be trusted with our beings...and you dont want us...so we must run fast and far...NOW! We can say mean and vicious things because we want to be the first to strike so it doesnt hurt us as badly. You wouldnt believe some of the things I have done. [/QUOTE]
