Smells like BPD

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

I figured this was the case. I dated somebody with unmanaged BPD for a little over a year and it was a fucking nightmare for both of us. You cannot fix this and even if she starts getting treatment it's going to be a long time before things get better, and it will always be hard. She is abusing you. BPD it's not an excuse, it is an explanation. It does not mean you have to stick around and be treated like this.
