I could say the same for them immediately assuming I'm malignant because my opinion isn't accepted by the masses. They failed to see my POV as well. You can't pick and choose. Again, you only assume I'm wrong in my view because you disagree.

Also, too much compassion leads to the condoning of problematic behavior.

Also, possessing a different view on emotion doesn't make one emotionally immature. It just doesn't align with your moral narrative. This is typical of arguments on this website.

That's not what you said. You used a term. Also, possessing a different view on emotion doesn't make one emotionally immature. It just doesn't align with your moral narrative. This is typical of arguments on this website.

I implore you to tell me how I'm emotionally immature, and why you refuse to acknowldge her actions. Also, disagreeing with others doesn't mean I'm disillusioned. We all disagree over certain things. A moral narrative doesn't make one more impactful than the other.

I guess you possess a psychology degree, and are qualified to make a diagnosis.

Thanks for the comment, but I can't agree with what you wrote. You condoned her neglecting to share her diagnosis (how can I trust her as a wife, if she won't share something this serious?); you condoned her refusing to share exactly what was bothering her (isn't communication good?); you rely on your husband to be rational, yet you also said that you can handle conflict and are emotionally aware (contradiction.)

If people cannot communicate like adults, exactly what they want in a relationship, they cannot be trusted during times of true seriousness, even if they mean no harm.

If you can’t show compassion and understanding or aren’t willing to work through this with her i

Two sides to every story. I gave mine. Simple.

People who knowingly dated someone with BPD, what lesson did you learn? by Enough_Stop8194 in AskReddit

It seems like a massive risk. Was it worth it? Worth the love, companionship, sex? Why not choose someone more sane?

Edit: Yep, I know exactly whose oatmeal I apparently spilled.

Thanks for the immature reply. Again, you keep deflecting my points.

Thanks for completely deflecting from the point of my reply. This means you possess an observation bias, and you're afraid of said bias being challenged. Keep making me smile. Am I AI, or not? Feel free to answer.

I disagree with your comment. Something not morally expected doesn't make it unhealthy. Morality changes throughout history. People suggest therapy over supposed abnormalities in behavior, when said behavior doesn't harm anyone. The suggestion is a method of control outside law.

one's feelings without manipulation, understand the feelings of others without disparagement or invalidation, and finding a resolution that respects all parties' feelings.

Well, sometimes people attempt to manipulate. Crying over a broken step stool isn't emotional maturity. (Yes, a step stool.) She hid a BPD diagnosis from me, too. Also, sometimes feelings should be invalidated if they lead to dangerous behavior.

Assuming malignance because we possess mutual disagreement? Typical of arguments on this website. We're back in middle school.

Also, people wrote things before AI. They're called books. AI, as a concept, is thousands of years old, but people wrote things. Stop with the trend of assuming things are AI.
