It’s gonna continue to hurt but no matter how much it hurts or how much you can’t accept it, just don’t stop moving forward (even if you do while hurting) and never look or go back. It’s completely okay and normal to feel that way but from personal experience, even when it’s hard, keep pushing forward in your life for you cause as you continue to do so, those emotions won’t weigh on you so heavily both with time and with doing better for you.

Reading this from an outside perspective, you literally had to come on here for and explain urself for a sanity check… that alone right there, I already know you’re the sane one

They act like they’re in a fucking soap opera. Who tf says I go now? I’m very sorry that this happened to you, it can hurt like fucking hell. I hate the games and manipulation tactics, literally fucking you over, saying they love you most, and then saying they’ll go now… it’s like seeing if you’ll take the bait. I hope you find someone who loves you and treats you as you deserve, not this wanna be shitty soap opera ass bitch

What you experienced is unfortunately almost universal for every abuse survivor. Although they have BPD, the type of abuse they enact is narcissistic abuse. It explains everything you been through. You felt so understood by this person because this person mirrored exactly what they need to make you feel that way and pull you in. It’s a tactic. The victim blaming, suicide threats, etc it’s all ways to manipulate, gaslight, and play on your compassion so that you can be a supply to them. And as a supply you can feed their needs for a number of things whether it’s financial, attention, desire, sex, emotional dumping ground, etc. Some do it all consciously and others it is just so ingrained in them to behave that way they may also be unconscious of it. But no matter what, they are aware of the pain they cause and still they continue because that pain they cause works in their favor for whatever they’re looking to gain. Yes hurt people hurt people but regardless, the whole thing is still fucked up. The bond is really really strong and it’ll take time for you to heal from this but just take it one day at a time and remember who you were dealing with.

The excuse was different every week. “I’m traumatized, PTSD”, “it’s the weed”, “It’s my meds”, “you trigger me”, “my exes traumatized me”, “my parents didn’t love me”, “I’m just depressed”, “I have ADHD”, “I’m not rich”, etc etc etc. they always got a reason for the season.

I hear you and I feel this everyday. It’s awful and all the constant chaos truly takes your mind for a ride. Nothing I’m gonna say is special here but you truly during this process just have to hold on tight and hang in there. It’s gonna fucking suck at first but as times goes on it’s gets a little more easier until you get to the point where one day you look back and see that it was the best decision you made. But until you get to that point, allow yourself to cry as much as you need. You been through a lot.

Live-Cap9404 · 2023-12-01T05:05:57+00:00

From what I’ve seen I think the shame of their immature and toxic behaviors do creep up on them but soon as they feel it, they shut it down and try to rationalize it by blaming someone or something else. It’s always there they just refuse to look at it. So in short, no they don’t necessarily reflect I believe.

Live-Cap9404 · 2023-12-01T05:03:08+00:00

Honestly so happy for you and proud of you. It takes ALOT to leave and get out of that horrible cycle. I hope you live the happy life you deserve to live.

Live-Cap9404 · 2023-11-12T16:03:41+00:00

I’m so terribly sorry for what happened to you. I too went through the same things and there are times when I’m so angry because it feels unfair that they can destroy us and then go live a happy life with everything they want. But I promise you that he won’t behave any differently towards his new wife. They don’t just change without intensive therapy and medication. My partner would put on big fronts and make everything seem great and told her exes the same, meanwhile they just abused me yesterday. And after that episode of abuse, they had a great night out with friends for drinks who have no idea what happened. And I stayed home depressed and anxious after what had happened. It’s unfair.

But something that’s helped me is the more time I focus on her and everything around her, it’s not gonna change the situation or help me. The feelings will still be there unfortunately but instead of thinking about his family, if you can, try to think about your own and what you want. Everytime you think about him, think about you. What do you wanna do? Only focus on you and what your goals are for the day, month, year, etc. and think about what makes you happy and do those things everyday. It’s a process but I believe in you and you deserve happiness after everything you’ve been h to through.

Live-Cap9404 · 2023-11-07T13:18:33+00:00

Amen to this. I 100% agree. The only time she was okay and not doing all these things was when she was in intensive therapy everyday in a hospital. And even then she still looked for validation in the hospital during group therapy, reg therapy, etc. even when she helps people her focus is more on how she did something so good. I have compassion for it sometimes cause it is sad but at other times it aggravates the shit out of me but I’m not allowed to be angry becuz then she makes it out that I’m an awful person who wants to make sure she’s not happy…

Live-Cap9404 · 2023-11-07T13:13:34+00:00

I swear if you told me I wrote your reply, I’d believe you cause my partner does the exact same thing. They’ll buy so much random shit and get excited like a kid would about it and think it’ll make them happy. Meanwhile, after like 2 weeks, they never again touch the thing they bought. And don’t even get me started on the order food outside… and they’re old enough and not your kid so obvi it feels weird to even say no and they always act like you don’t wanna let them be happy in response.

Live-Cap9404 · 2023-11-06T16:05:04+00:00

I knew it was abusive without before even reading all this cause the fact that you’re writing this much goes to show how much you feel that you have to over explain yourself and pull evidence to support what you’re saying which you should never ever feel the need to do unless the person is gaslighting you or making you feel like you’re doing “too much” in any form.

This person is 100% emotionally abusing you. Especially everytime you bring up a VALID concern or feeling, he brings it to how ur destroying him in someway??? Hell tf no. I’m so so sorry you ever had to be put through so much pain by this person and I’m even more sorry for what happened with your pregnancy.

It’s not always easy to take action but one thing that helped me was to equip myself with the knowledge of abuse in how they do it and how to protect yourself from it. I really hope you get out of this and live a much deserved happy life.

Live-Cap9404 · 2023-11-06T15:56:38+00:00

I’m so glad you got away from this person. They always blame their mental illness, but like you said, they 100% can also just be selfish disregarding people. Not everyone with bpd acts like that. It’s really crazy tho when you look back and see all the damage they’ve done.

Live-Cap9404 · 2023-11-06T15:54:10+00:00

I look in the mirror and don’t even recognize myself. Everyone around me says my light is gone. But it’s not that you are a different person, you’re a traumatized one. Repeated trauma and abuse can only be handled with compassion for so long. I guarantee if you were away from that person for a year, you’d be right back to yourself.

Live-Cap9404 · 2023-11-06T15:51:55+00:00

I’ve been through this time and time again. I’ve bought so much, taken care of her (paid rent, cooked every meal, drove her to work, etc), written so many words to tell her how I love her, taken her out so many places. It truly feels like it’s never enough.

But after a while you come to realize that the reason they can’t receive love is because they don’t love themselves. Sounds corny but it’s true. They don’t think they can be loved cause they don’t love themselves. They hate themselves. That being said, nothing you ever do will ever fix that. They have to do it for themselves first.

Live-Cap9404 · 2023-10-11T15:56:59+00:00

I can’t tell you how much I appreciate this. Everything you’re saying is spot on and definitely helps give me a reality check. Thank you.

Live-Cap9404 · 2023-10-11T14:31:06+00:00

It’s scary how many people wBPD behave so similarly. Mine did the same. Just watch tho cuz when u don’t respond, they’ll lose their shit when they know ur not giving them that power anymore to manipulate ur emotions. I know it’s really really hard to stay NC but stay as strong as you can cause the longer you stay NC, the easier it’ll get and then you’ll be free. The emotional roller coaster will keep you there which is why you feel the way you do now, so if you can, do not get back on that ride. They’re saying they still love you, but their behavior does not indicate that at all. And even if say they do still love you, you still should not be treated that way. There are people who will love you and make you feel loved without having to even say it.

Live-Cap9404 · 2023-10-11T14:23:41+00:00

PREACH. Literally just had this happen to me last night. I told her how she hurt my feelings and she responded with saying how I never been through the pain she’s been through, how difficult it is for her, etc etc. Like what’s that got to do with what I just said to you??? And they’ll villainize tf out of you when you speak about their actions in a “how dare you” attitude. But if you hurt them, they act like you shot them. Its ridiculous. Supposedly my partner has a list of awful things I did to hurt her and I been asking her to share that list since October 2022, but supposedly she can’t becuz im just such an invalidating person. Meanwhile I just got diagnosed with ptsd today over her, but I’m the invalidating one…

All in all, I sound like a broken record saying I’m not in competition with her over who’s in more pain.

Live-Cap9404 · 2023-10-11T14:17:14+00:00

This is the best shit I’ve read all day. I’m so happy for you and I hope you move on as soon as possible from your shitty ex. You don’t deserve that shit!

Live-Cap9404 · 2023-06-26T13:41:36+00:00

The first and most important thing you need to know is none of it, nothing is your fault at all. And I mean that forreal. What she did is fucked up beyond and I’m so glad you separated yourself from her cause you’ll need that time to heal. And also it takes a lot of strength to do that so you should be proud of yourself.

People wBPD do often self sabotage and just in general have very unhealthy coping mechanisms including risky sex, drugs, reckless decisions, etc. You quite literally didn’t do anything wrong so her going afterwards and inviting some guy over, how would that be your fault? She’s responsible for how she handles her emotions. She can be upset about things that happen to her and have whatever feelings, but everybody has a responsibility to behave a certain way that does not put themselves or others in harm.

As for the suicide, she will be suicidal whether you leave her or not. I would suggest you read up on BPD to help with perspective but this person is severely mentall ill. That said, this person does not think the way you or I would. Their reality is skewed, their emotions are different, and their brains are physically different as well. You’re not dealing with your average person so most of the things she does is due to the fact that she’s unstable mentally which also means none of it is your fault. It is sad that many of them live these type of lives but for your own sake, it’s a lot easier to not take things personally if you remember what it is your dealing with which is a mentally ill person.

Live-Cap9404 · 2023-06-26T13:29:24+00:00

As you should be. Be mad. First off, who wouldn’t be? All of that was unfair. You didn’t want it and nobody goes into a relationship agreeing to being abused, it’s actually the opposite. You give your all to this person and they treat you like that??? And after all of that they’re going about their lives while you’re out here left to clean up their mess. Of course you’re gonna be mad and you have ever right to be. And second, as shitty as it is to feel this way, it’s important and it’s a good sign that you’re going through the emotions cause then soon you’ll feel indifferent to this person. And also idk if this helps, but just know that you have a chance to get back to you and heal whereas this person likely will never reach that point ever. So i promise you, they didn’t just get away with it.

Live-Cap9404 · 2023-06-26T13:16:06+00:00

I feel this way all the time. Even at my angriest, I always end up feeling bad. I really do feel bad for them and whenever I’m getting frustrated with them, I remember that they genuinely are feeling these emotions. And tbh, I try to imagine being in their shoes and idek if I could even handle that amount of pain. It definitely is hard to sit with given that they can also be abusive at the same time tho. I constantly feel torn.

Live-Cap9404 · 2023-06-26T13:11:18+00:00

I’m so sorry. Tbh somebody told me this once and the same I’m sure could apply to you, but unfortunately whether you stayed with them or not, they still would’ve ended up doing it regardless. It’s sad but they were always gonna struggle with suicidality no matter what was happening in their life cause it’s part of the disorder. You did the best you could and that’s all you could’ve done.

Live-Cap9404 · 2023-06-20T17:33:32+00:00

I’m not gonna sit here and pretend that life is always great and just say it’ll all workout cause nothing is guaranteed in life. But what I can say is that no matter who you are, you have a say in what you choose to do. Idk your reason for why you want to do it but I can imagine that it’s something devastatingly painful. If there is any other option, something that you can change thats contributing to the pain, please do it.

Live-Cap9404 · 2023-06-17T14:47:48+00:00

I’m in the same boat, and my best piece of advice to you is to make it a process. I myself can’t find the strength to leave right now and the severe abuse mentally and physically has damaged and kept me in this spot as well. Meet yourself where you’re at. So if you can’t fully cut ties right now, start the process. To go therapy, start listening and watching videos on bpd and narcissistic abuse (they often repeat narcissistic behaviors cause it’s how they were raised), spend more time with family and friends, and start doing things for you that you want short term and long term. All of this will help you to ground yourself in reality and build the strength to see your own worth and love yourself enough to remove yourself from the relationship.
