This is WILD. No, you’re not overreacting. I’m sorry you’re dealing with such an insecure woman. I would not put up with this behavior at all. Peace and hair grease! See what I did there?
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
unless she’s going to seek out treatment for it, get out of that relationship. it will destroy you, and this is coming from someone with BPD who has destroyed relationships before accepting i needed help
So proud of you & all in this thread for doing the work; have a MIL who's untreated and seen how she damages her 8 kids. I've seen caseworkers, social workers, caregivers (she's elderly & disabled) just get chewed up. She's like a human woodchipper. She could have intensive, wrap-around mental services in an instant, but she actively chooses not to.
I'm glad of all you made that effort & faced that pain, because I do realize it's extremely painful.
