Not sure

[CV]

I don't know if my wife has this or not. Someone recommend Stop walking on eggshells book. I read just a small portion and I can already relate to it so much. I a man currently separated from my wife she has an apartment and I'm still at home. She doesn't get along with anyone I'm close to and has alienated her own family. We've been married for 4 years this Saturday the first was awesome, then she constantly would tell me something is wrong with us but I didn't think so. I'm a pretty laid back guy little gets to me but it's as if I can't do anything right. I had a affair via text with an old friend and that has triggered a lot of issues. I didn't have sex with this other person but I couldn't talk to anyone especially my wife about what was going on and how I was feeling. I'm not sure if joining this will help I do know if my wife finds out she will explode.

Hi CV,

Sorry for the delayed response. I want to welcome you to the board. I have not read the book Stop Walking on Eggshells, but many people on this board have and it has helped them immensely. Isolation is common for people living with someone with BPD. Hopefully you will be able to find support and help on this board. Like you many of our SO do not know we are on this board. Some of us go through many hoops to make sure they don't find out about this board. For me, it has been a huge help in navigating my relationship.

One place to start is to check out the workshops on the right side of the board. There are lots of workshops to help learn more about being in a relationship with someone with BPD, better communication skills, and information on how to take care of yourself. Looking forward to getting to know more about you.
