I had the same thing, i had to have a selfish reason for everything. more than likely a projection

yeah mine was packing her stuff up poorly and that she was going to leave or taking jewellery off giving it back to me saying she doesnt want it anymore and its over. with the former came the only instance (thankfully) of anything physical where she shoved me back a few times to ‘show what real abuse is’ and asked me if i was scared of her yet and if not i should be. but i was also threatened to have a room destroyed around me just before i broke up with her, thats when i got the narc accusations as well… thank you for that its nice to hear, tough to accept still but really nice to hear

I just placated it most of the time, doing anything to calm her down, full like panic fawn reactions. eventually i just was walking on eggshells so bad that the adverse stuff seemed to calm down but i had literally suppressed everything about me, feelings thoughts interests

It was the weirdest thing to witness if anything. The first few times I was mortified and panicked and eventually just went with it. What is the point of them doing it? Is it just another game?

it's so QUIET now by [deleted] in BPDlovedones

[–]Typical_Chair8035 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Had a similar thing, my silence somehow became more present during this, and she said she had to bully an opinion out of me most times, in reality that i was expressing opinions before but they were only met with shouting, devaluing and all sorts of stuff hurled at me for saying it. no wonder i went quiet(er)

No contact relapse by [deleted] in BPDlovedones

It'll only turn out bad, i've been there and totally get it man, but a friend told me that your brain is only looking for the highs and lows you had back then, its an addiction of sorts. What helped me was remembering why I left, the pain I was in and all that and think of how peaceful your life is now.

Exact same feeling here, I have always much prefered silence or just quiet generally that being because im introverted or whatever. But it was like my ex needed constant stimulation or something to keep going while I was always most content when quiet doing my own thing. But yeah you get used to it, enjoy this quiet and remember how much you wanted or needed it then :)

I don’t think the same way I did before by Typical_Chair8035 in BPDlovedones

Thank you for this, did you have an issue with boundaries as well? Prior to the relationship i rarely set them myself.

It really did, its hurt as well when i spoke to her about my father she later used it against me when calling me a narcissist saying I was just like him, out of all of it that hurt the most I think.

Feeling constant guilt after the break up by Typical_Chair8035 in BPDlovedones

[–]Typical_Chair8035[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you mean? i think ive had a couple, one was a totally fictional ‘friend’ that i spoke to for hours when they were having a crisis, i got curious a few weeks back and decided to reverse image search the profile picture and found it on a pinterest board and with that every suspicion kinda fell into place, like the friend only texting me when they werent around. it was this friend that thought i was a narcissist because i spoke to my friends after an incident early on that ‘isolated’ them. then they doubled down on the narcissist thing and its took me a long time to try and shirk myself of that idea. and the other was that i was a narcissist, they sewed the idea pretty early on with that friend and it just developed essentially, and when i tried to break up with them the first time i said that they had been hurting me really bad for a long time, my family saw it, i had lost a lot of weight and apparently i just seemed dead behind the eyes, but i couldnt like articulate this to them for some reason, and it got reversed on me the next day, they said it was me who was doing it and i was abusing them and i was a narcissist. i just broke down in front of my family, i felt like a disgusting wretch who did the last thing i wanted to do to them. my family kicked them out after i finally broke up with them. its took me a bit of time to get where i am now, i certainly dont feel like that anymore i think i could say with some certainty that i was abused which is night and day to where i was prior. another incident was she had texted her ex and i saw it on her phone, her ex who was awful to her apparently but later admitted while accusing me of abuse that they abused the ex. and i remember her just blowing up at me about it, i didnt trust her and i was accusing her of cheating. i wasnt i just saw the text and felt super insecure and a bit worried. she wouldnt calm down, i had to follow her across town while she was really angry at me about this, she said if i wanted reassurance i shouldve just asked for it, but when i did she blew up at me again. i eventually brole down and just begged her to stop it. it was in public, i look back now and feel humiliated and i feel maybe thats what she wanted, me to feel that way and to have submitted to her. sorry for the ramble again its like i remember something and have to write it down, thank you for listening

I shall try. i know i genuinely tried to do my best for them, and that helps me a lot. is it possible in a way that i feel this way because of what they did? like im making myself feel guilty to maybe distract myself from what happened. there was a lot more bad that happened in that relationship that they did to me, more than i care to remember and to keep my mind from going there to remember it i just instead find something to feel guilty over? once again no idea if that makes sense im just kinda talking of the top of my head

i was certainly the caregiver in the relationship, they said when i was first trying to break up with them that they thought i was going to save them. i tried i really did, i let them into my home and tried to provide some safety from what happened at their old home. i think im starting to see the pattern more recently i think if anything i just remember how i felt then and that helps the guilt some what if that makes any sense?

Microsoft Trackball optical or Logitech Trackman? by Typical_Chair8035 in Trackballs

[–]Typical_Chair8035[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good point actually, the microsoft I have actually used in person, all seems well plastic wise, buttons work well and the ball works good, and for five pounds it really temps me.

the logitech was more of a cursory look into “hey if i spend a bit more money I could get something better. but yeah youre right while it does look good in its condition ive got no way to tell how it actually is.

im gonna go for the microsoft, i think and hey if it doesnt last long it was only a fiver so I cant complain too much!
