This makes more sense to me, and honestly I'm relieved to hear you are seeing someone. That said, being borderline doesn't automatically make you a bitch and it isn't something you need to be ashamed of. It just means that like the rest of us, you have some things to work through. It isn't a big deal, and we, the people who love you, will always be there for you no matter what happens. If you ever do need someone to talk to, please let me know if I can help. I know it isn't easy to go through these things, and please know that you are not alone in this and you never will be. Cognitive therapy is something that generally people find helps with borderline personality disorder. Maybe talk to your therapist about that? I've heard keeping a journal where you record your feelings at any given point in time and then going back later and thinking about whether that was the right way to feel or not is helpful. Then as you discover what triggers the improper feelings, you can develop another response rather than those improper feelings (if that makes any sense).
