So no extracurricular activities at all. Want to watch TV? Work on your career instead! Son wants to play catch? Show him how to work on your resume instead!

He sounds like he would be fun at parties.... if he went to them... he's probably the type who calls the cops on the party because the party goers are having fun and having fun is a big no-no and they should have been at home working on math problems instead...

Does he feel the same about other forms of entertainment (watching movies and TV shows)?

I haven't seen the video (nor do I want to... I'm not giving him any views) but I'm willing to bet he has no problems with movies, TV, novels, etc. Usually people who go out of their way to say that video games are a waste of time are the same ones spending hours binging some shitty TV show on some streaming service.

As a person with BPD I just kinda wanna kick y'all in the teeth.

I don't think this post convinced TC to go out on this date....

My ex with BPD cheated on me several times, screamed at me like 40% of the time no matter how hard I tried to keep her happy, and broke up with me at least once a month.

It was the most disastrous relationship I've ever had, and it's not even close.

The weird thing is, if not for for abusive bullshit, she was very cool. Very sweet. Made me happy 60% of the time, but that 40% of the time she was in disaster mode, my life was essentially unlivable.

This is really disturbing, as it mirrors exactly the experience I've had with someone who had borderline personality disorder, as well as my friends who dated girls with borderline personality disorder

Had an ex that was very similar. Seemed like every other month shed get pissed at me and id come home from work to her having her things packed ready to leave me. She left me for her previous ex and got pregnant with him so I dodged a bullet when she finally let me free. Women with BPD in my experience is like getting on a roller coaster without the seatbelt tightened and it was easy to get stuck.

I've had relationships with 3 women in which had some serious personality disorders, only one of them was diagnosed with BPD (or at least shared the diagnosis of it), but all 3 did a lot of the same things, and all 3 had some sort of childhood abuse or severe neglect.

People outside of these relationships make fun of the "I can fix her" thing, but when you are young and immature and the sex is so good, sometimes you actually think that, but no it is not happening.

^These are all VERY real things that really do happen in real life.
I've heard VERY similar stories from multiple people who have dated someone with BPD.
In other words, TC needs to take extreme caution if they decide to go further with this situation and actually go out on a date and proceed beyond that.

Weird to Google someone and see they have BPD

But BPD is on a slider from my experience. You can have someone who's crazy, shits on beds, and mean as a snake and have someone who's in treatment and can manage.

You'll never see how far the rabbit hole goes unless you observe their closest relationships or become one

I'd say go for it if you're a stable person yourself. Run away if you're a codependent

It is true that BPD is on a slider.
It also strongly depends if the person is medicated or not.
Definitely something to consider.
HOWEVER, TC also needs to consider the possibility that they might be walking into a situation where the slider is cranked all the way to one extreme side. Or maybe it won't, maybe it will be a slight thing where the BPD is barely noticeable. But TC seriously needs to be on guard and take caution if they decide to go out with this woman.

It could be a normal situation,
Or TC might find themselves in this situation below (see pic below) in the future (and if anyone has been following the current court case, it was revealed she had BPD):

Bumpity bump.
Just want to hear some more responses before responding.
So far there have been excellent answers and comments from everyone.

Do you have moral / ethical reasons you wouldn't be able to be a juror? Any moral / ethical reasons why you would NOT be the right type of person to pass judgement upon another person on trial?
I recently heard some very interesting answers to this question. What is your answer?

^THIS.

^All THIS.

^VERY much THIS.
With this video below to show how accurate this is. There are hundreds of similar videos related to this, but this one minute video below sums it up perfectly. It's only one minute long, but she speaks volumes of truth.

They can't get high off of oral antibiotic for skin, but I guarantee you they are desperate and stupid enough to try. LOL. If you see any young people with very bleached up nose hair around your neighborhood (if they are stealing it from your porch then 9 times out of 10 it's someone who lives on your block or a block very, very close by) that's definitely someone to suspect. LOL.

90% chance it's someone in a house somewhere in the neighborhood (thieves / junkies close by are typically the ones who steal packages from porches) and 90% chance it's a younger person (those are typically the ones that most of the time don't have access to real drugs due to monetary or availability issues, so they have to rely on getting high in alternative ways). Only a 10% chance it's someone from a few miles away driving around to other neighborhoods looking at porches while driving by and 10% chance it's an older person (if it is then it's an older person who is under some type of semi-lockdown at home and can't get out beyond their neighborhood to purchase real drugs so they are roaming around to close by houses looking to see what they can find).
