It doesn't sound like this person is good for you. It's hard for anyone on the outside to understand what it's like having BPD, but they should be sympathetic and support your desire to improve rather than putting you down. My boyfriend and I have our problems but that isn't one of them. If anything we both think the other person is better than ourselves, and encourage them to work on things we can't or won't do. I'm not sure whether that's a good thing or not, lol.
