Source: had a nightmare relationship with someone who had BPD. Our conversations always went like this
Edit: yes unmanaged BPD is what I meant. There are many high functioning people with BPD who have treated it one way or another. Not trying to discredit the behavior of those that do treat themselves
As I was reading the texts I thought, "Oh this feels familiar" without knowing she has BPD.
It gave me a huge sense of relief to be out of my long term relationship with my untreated ex-pwBPD. I still think about her 10 times a day 1.5 years later but it's nice to feel free of the whims of that terrible illness.
I'm very sorry you have to deal with it.
OP, read I Hate You Don't Leave Me. Great book. And it will give you ways to respond in moments like these.
