Allow me to introduce myself and my situation

[Macleod645]

Hey there all hope your all well,

I've been in a long distance relationship with someone who has BPD for just over the last year (I'm in the UK and she's in Alabama)

At first everything was great, we were managing things quite well, organizing visits to see each other, making plans to close the distance in a couple of years for me to move over there with her. I mean ok she has cut herself in front of me and threatened suicide but I've always managed to pull her through even when she had a major meltdown on Sunday and tried to delete me and several of her closest friends but then I helped her to repair those bridges.

But lately for at least the last couple of months things have been so different and she's been very emotionally distant with me over Skype and there have been periods of long silence when we used to be able to just and she's even giving me the impression that she's not really that bothered about me going over there in November and everytime I bring it up she doesn't really seem to want to come over and see me next year and just says we'll see and in general doesn't seem as enthusiastic about the relationship which just drags me down and I'm starting to feel she uses my Aspergers and loyalty to keep me in the relationship because everytime I've asked her questions like is she still happy with me? and does she still want to be with me? to which she always turns back on me and asks me those questions herself.

She has said she's gonna start going to a counselor again soon and start trying to get better as she has recognized in herself that something's not quite right so I am hoping that things will get better from here for us as well

If you guys could give me any help/tips that would be great
