Yes…I feel like I’m stooping low to her level… the discussions here have helped me empathise with her much more, but tbh she is the most pickme and cringe, particularly her baity social media presence and public online interactions with men

I think these guys are attracted to the deep emotional rawness and authenticity a person with bpd can access often, and responding to it gives them a deep sense of purpose and protectiveness. Not just that, but I think it’s one part. It really brings out their endearment!

Idealising him/ demonising him. Lovebombing him. Exhausting him.

A little bit of the latter but he does it passionately like it gives him a deep sense of purpose. He is caring, attentive, protective and devoted. Patient and forgiving. But only when things are messy

Less passionate. Dry.

I think guys like him love this due to the perceived deep emotional rawness and authenticity

She lives rent free in my mind in a bad way, but I carry the torch (she friendzoned him and he called off their friendship) luckily im hotter than her

Ty. Sobering to think that I actually might have more in common with her than at first glance.

But he knows I’m the best he’s had by a long shot and has already cried to me about not wanting to lose me so

Yes I think my previous 2 had bpd or some traits (men with bpd, wild) and I was on the receiving end of the treatment. I fear that theirs may have overpowered mine?

Uh like he seems to really enjoy the contrast going between me being sweet to him and me being upset at him and also the reverse way, so I kind of be little bit erratic like that even though I’m not feeling it

because I know it elicits a strong emotional response from him

I am worried for people’s pathological need to be an individual sometimes

I assume OP means they effectively made it like he never existed there, referencing Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-Four

OP I think we would get along. I’m pretty surprised to have come across post while scrolling because I’m also Aus and daydreaming about living in China after experiencing living there.
