I have came to the conclusion she was BPD. It was a volatile relationship from the start. Within 6 months i moved in with her and right from the get go she wanted to get married and have kids (thank god it didn't go there yet) We bought a home earlier this year and attempting to have a child. In moments of rage / frustration she would always break up with me (about 4-6 times ) in 6 years. I stopped counting. One day, she broke up with me for supposedly yelling at our dog and showed no remorse or empathy. 5 days later after I was gone she contacted me via email to reconcile. Which i was hesitant to do. Like you all, this was the hardest thing to do is to walk away. Unfortunately, people like this are emotional pariahs. Post break up I suggested to my Ex to get some type of therapy as breaking up with someone you bought a home with a month before is not right. He response was I should have never been in a relationship with you to begin with.

Two days prior, she assigned me as beneficiary to all her money. <br />It was 3 years of constant "I love you and this is the real deal" to you are not smart enough for me and you are a liar and a cheat.<br />My head is still spinning. Two days after she broke up with me, I find out she has invited her old boyfriend who is married and has a kid to come and spend the weekend with her at her house. # months prior to our breakup she went away to a convention and had all the signs of being pregnant. Guess what... Ive had a vasectomy.<br />Despite all this, Im drawn to her and want her to accept me back and say that I am her Knight in shining armor.<br />FRom what I am reading, this is truly a blessing and if I can maove on, perhapsmy life and sanity have been savedAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3478275993537591735.post-53444236826369074722012-06-10T11:58:00.017-04:002012-06-10T11:58:00.017-04:00I don't know if my ex had or has BPD but after...I don't know if my ex had or has BPD but after reading so much about it I am almost positive he does. When we met it was like lightening striking. The chemistry was off the charts. He was saying he loved me after date #2 and about a week into it he was saying he was going to marry me and I'm going to be his wife. He put me on a pedistal so high that if it broke I would no less than break my neck from the fall. This is exactly what happened. Throught the first 6 months he constantly told me how happy I made him and would beg me never to leave him (even though I hadn't ever thought of leaving this 36 yr old man who adored and worshiped me). He was very jealous. If I didn't answer a text because I was out of went to bed he would get furious and try to argue with me. He would tell me how he is wanting this to last forever but I'm not giving it 100%. Then one night he broke up with me out of the blue. A week later he was back but didn't give me all that lovey marriage talk as before. I ended up leaving him a month later, missing him, calling him, and seeing him again. Well he was totally hot and cold for about 2 months. He would accuse me of having feelings for another man (which was insane to me) he would accuse me of seeing and sleeping with another man, (again crazy talk). I found myself walking on egg shells. He would go days without talking to me and then send a 3am text saying how mean I am and how I feel he is a burden. I would kiss his butt, we'd make up, he'd act like everything was fine, then he would blow me off and not talk to me for days and days. He dumped me again saying he never loved me blah blah blah. I cut him off completely after that. Weeks would pass w/o a word from him then suddenly a 3am text. He would start being sweet and then a complete 180 in 30 minutes or less. Calling me names, insulting me etc. I didn't respond to this and a week would pass and he'd contact me again wanting to "just be with me." I honestly thought he loved me LOL!!! I believe he was crazy about me and wanted to marry me and that is what kept me coming back for more. It was the way he made me believe he loved me but now I don't think it was ever real. One minute we are exclusive (even though we never talked about it after agreeing to talk again) all his words, then he would dump me saying he doesn't know how he feels, what he wants, he's so busy right now. I do believe I should run like the wind but leaving someone like that is very hard. I remember the loving things, like the cruise he took me on, he however, seems to only remember the bad things and acts as if there were never any good times. I know that I cling to the good memories and that is why I continued to talk to him, hoping to see that love again, but he never mentions them. He speaks as if he doesn't remember ever having any deep loving feelings for me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3478275993537591735.post-70755540535636186132012-04-30T23:15:06.643-04:002012-04-30T23:15:06.643-04:00Hi, I'm suffering from BPD.

Now I'm wth a guy who really does love me and wants to help me. I really hope I can beat this thing. It really sucks and it drains the hell out of me. It really contradictory because people with BPD are afraid of abandonment, yet all their behavior leads to it. Well wish me luck. I don't want to lose my bf.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3478275993537591735.post-40835954319331656022012-02-24T00:31:17.844-05:002012-02-24T00:31:17.844-05:00A borderline and I recently broke up after 10 mont...A borderline and I recently broke up after 10 months. She told me she was going to 'learn to take care of me' our first conversation. We seemed to have so many things in common that I dismissed the rediculousness of her claim. She tied my shoes for me, praised everything I did, and we made love 5 times a day. A couple weeks in she freaked out on me for not sending her a letter I told her I wrote about her. She started to twist my words and accuse me of lying about nearly everything I said. She blamed me for turning negative and being controlling when I tried to talk to her about how what she was doing affected me. The negativity kept getting worse despite councelling and in the end she admitted she cheated on me five times even though she told me she promised God she would never hurt me and we would be together forever. <br /><br />It has helped me a great deal to learn about others stories and facts about bpd. I started to read 'I hate you, don't leave me'. The pain is getting better, though I feel like I was used and stomped on besides. I wonder why I still love this woman so, and fantasize about the day she comes back to me crying for me to take her back. What an effed up illness the way it makes 'normal' people feel mentally ill.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3478275993537591735.post-44373980475103512692010-12-08T23:00:52.761-05:002010-12-08T23:00:52.761-05:00I wouldnt be upset about leaving a borderline. con...I wouldnt be upset about leaving a borderline. consider it a blessing that this borderline left you. I was in a relationship with one for nearly three years and the drama and abuse she heaped out was literally unbelievable. are u a sucker for punishment? cause unless you really enjoy extreme emotional abuse, i would literally run as fast as i can away from one of these creatures. they truly are the most horrible, twisted, most manipulative, decietful, abusive gremlins known to man. Consider yourself blessed that you got out so early. Mine got herself pregnant just as she sensed i was about to make a break for it. It took over a year and a half after that for me to finally get away, and she still stalks me now.!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3478275993537591735.post-42848939674961459582010-07-01T01:30:10.907-04:002010-07-01T01:30:10.907-04:00I just got out of a relationship with a girl and I...I just got out of a relationship with a girl and I don't know if she was diagnosed with BPD, but I have been searching for answers and from what I have been reading about BPD and the effects it has on people, it sounds exactly like what I endured for the past 2.5 years.<br /> She would love me and treat me great, but when she was mad she would shut me out for days on end. A few times she told me how much she hated me, she hated her brother, she 99% of the time hated her sister, she had no close friends, Her moods were so out of control; one minute she was laughing and the next she was crabby, it was exhausting. She had zero energy and made comments that she didn't know who she was yet, and she was 26years old.<br /> As I look back on it I am realizing that she never truly connected with me. She never wanted to French kiss me or "make out" and whenever I expressed discontent over this she flipped it around on me and it usually ended in her shutting me out for a day. She was never interested in anything about me after the first year of dating,she hid things from me and told lies, we never really talked deeply about anything,and she easily let something like the door being locked ruin her mood.<br /> Yet I stayed with her for 2.5 years, and I really feel that I always did everything to cater to her, and was always trying to make her happy, or show her a good time. Since I met her I withdrew from all of my other close relationships, and despite all of this I miss her and love her more than anyone else I've dated.<br /> I was the one who moved out and ended the relationship because I knew it wasn't right, it was the hardest thing I've ever done. She told me she was devastated and that she loves me more than anything, but she has blocked my calls and e mails and I feel so upset..<br /> Any insight?<br /> BeeUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10424854036450859050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3478275993537591735.post-249906212234907112010-06-23T12:24:01.519-04:002010-06-23T12:24:01.519-04:00O I was actually a therapist who knew she was bord...O I was actually a therapist who knew she was borderline after a year but I still got married even after all the rages<br />Loved how I could run into a mutual friend, say I was meeting Maria why not join us.

There was constant "testing" as in he would "break up" with me, then a few hours later send something like "I love you" or "I don't want this to end, let's forget the past." This happened about once a week or every other week. I was costantly accused of cheating- I stopped going out with my girfriends for fear of him freaking out. BUT- he would disappear and not answer his phone. It was a bizarre double standard. And if I protested to his disappearing, he would accuse me of being "controlling." BUT HE IS THE ONE WHO BEHAVED THAT WAY! Before I knew it, I felt like I was going insane. <br /><br />It's not easy to get the garbage out of your head after a r'ship with someone who may have bpd. The threats, oh the threats. He would threaten to leave me weekly for some perceived slight. Or the communication that wasn't about real life, just about his victimhood or whatever. <br /><br />There seemed to be constant "testing." He even joked (now its not funny) with me about how he needs to "stop messing with you because you have passed the test." But it didn't stop. And he seemed to like to "punish" me for something. Like working late- I would get yelled at or broken up with. Baited into some argument that got flipped onto being all me.
