my dd ,now 21, and I were estranged for quite a while, she living on the streets, NC, very bizarre behaviors and emotional reactions. Now she is employed and in school. It took a lot of reading, posting here, learning about BPD and using strong boundaries for us to regain our relationship. Not the one that I had anticipated, but rather one built on some emotional distance, but respect and understanding. It looks from your profile that your BPD may be an adult relationship. If so you may want to look at that thread as well. Title: Re: can BPD relationship survive Post by: LilMe on August 23, 2015, 12:36:15 PM Dear anmolnitu,
