ADHD and BPD relationship - Risk of co-dependecy?

Hallo everybody! I've got a question with regard to relationships between persons suffering from AD(H)D and BPD (Borderline Personality Disorder). My question is whether BPD as well as inappropriate circumstances in a way are leading to co-dependency involving and especially influencing the AD(H)D partner? I know this question is hard to answer but I hope some of you can give me an answer to that question. It would be great if you could give me examples, especially if you have already experienced co-dependencies in relationships that involved both disorders (ADHD and BPD). Thank you very much and sorry for my bad English. Yours Nils from Cologne, Germany.

I LIVE IT

I believe so. I am living that situation right now. I am the ADHD person and he is, i believe, the BPD. He has not being tested and I do not know how they test for that, but I am being tested for ADHD. I am reading some books, just started, but I know for a fact that what u asked for is true. BPDs do push ADHD into co-dependence.
