BPD and over-spending go hand in hand

Another thing those with borderline personality disorder struggle with is compulsive spending. They will often go into spirals of spending too much money in order to perhaps avoid a depressive episode or in the height of a manic episode. If someone with this disorder doesn’t have access to money, they can still participate in that behavior by going online and finding someone who does. So in this way, online dating again enables destructive behavior.
