Title: You either die hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain Post by: TakeFlight on March 25, 2013, 09:33:08 PM Just thought I'd add this little Harvey Dent quote from "The Dark Knight" That describes your status throughout a relationship with a BPD PERFECTLY. lol

I had a chance to do this and DID because I felt she wasnt right for me and was moving to another state/graduating college. I fought her for many months against her opining that i was "the one". Somewhere along the line i let myself slip back to her and it ended in disaster. BUT i could have "died" the hero had i just LEFT before the devaluation!
