Had a close friend with BPD and she no longer will talk or communicate with me.  I'm trying to either try to find a way to get her to talk to me or walk away. It's harder than I thought.

Hey darkside, Welcome!  I doubt that you are going to find a way to "get her to talk" to you, because her behavior is beyond your control.  When in doubt, I suggest you consult the Serenity Prayer.  Instead of walking away, you might want to consider just holding your place in space, neither retreating nor attacking.  Does that make sense?
