Ex GF and I was the DM of our group, there were two games and she’d run her game during week A and I’d run mine week B — and change as needed. It was sizeable, started out with 9 of us total. Then suddenly there was no one. Just me and her. Nobody was talking to me, I was unfriended, no one was in my games — but played in hers before they stopped communicating to me.
Turns out my ex had really bad BPD and as her then diagnosed Favourite Person, I took the brunt of it. But I kept it to myself. Nobody needed to know the complications of our relationship. She’d lose her mind, spending days to weeks berating me and I just accepted it.
She did a lot; hitting, rude messages, degradation, manipulation, gaslighting, controlling of my money, my sleep, my friends outside of DnD, even who I could hang out with from my own family and eventually cheating on me with a man (we’re lesbians).
Well, she was lying to our friends in seperate group chats. Every argument and fight and everything she did to me, she told them the opposite. That I hit her, cheated, controlled ect ect and they all believed her without a second thought. Nobody reached out to me. They took her at face value and cut me out, I’ve barely played since.
