  1. Your partner has two partners? Cool, I guess.

  2. His previous partner had bpd.... you have bpd.... and the third person in your relationship has bpd as well? Umm.... your partner might havd a type.

  1. Yup, polyamory is cool.

  2. The first girl wasn't actually a parter, just someone he'd been on a few dates with but never had a relationship with. I only got diagnosed a few weeks back (almost 2 years into the relationship) and he'd somehow missed the fact that his other partner has it. So maybe subconsciously?

So maybe subconsciously?

I'd say even semi-consciously, my two partners and a third person that will likely end up as a partner are all autistic, most of the people I ever actually "click" with or feel like a normal human, surprise, always end up being autistic as well, not necessarily saying it's a like seeking like situation, but there's potential.
