Guest guest Posted April 19, 2001 Report Share Posted April 19, 2001 Recently we've been talking about the following book on the ModOasis list (for adult kids of BPs). I spoke with the author a few days ago and mentioned that a lot of what dhe says holds true for all BP/Non relationships, not just parent/child. She greed. What's nice about this book is that it doesn't just describe...it gives practical information about what to do. What I found interesting is that although she groups BPs into four categories, much of the coping tips are the same no matter which type is in your life. I also have a hunch is that if you scratch very far, you'll find that a lot of people who partner with BPs had a BP parent. This book may trigger memories and explain why you choose your BP partner--it's familiar to you and (as Harville Hendrix would say) you're repeating the dynamics in order to make things work out this time. > > Good grief, I really need to read that book.
