Hello  :hi: and welcome
I am not on here often like never lol
I have been married 22 years to my husband who has BPD
We are still doing fine but this covid thing doesn’t help.
There is a lot of books to read and articles on here . You came to a good place it’s where I started like 20 some years ago . My husband is high functioning . And I had to learn to accept what I could . And set many boundaries . That is a good place to start read all u can about BPD  . Also on. Top read the success stories I’m in there .

What are you struggling with if you don’t mind me asking. A significant other can give a lot of support and help but it’s important that your partner be willing to accept it/admit it and improve the situation. That doesn’t always mean it will be successful but it’s a HUGE step in the right direction. A lot of people are able to work through BPD. There is life on the other side of it.  :wee: I’m newish here too. Been a member before but coming back to brush up on things I guess. There’s so much good stuff here. You made the right call!
