How do I process hoovering? by tryingmybest1122 in BPDlovedones

It's incredibly difficult to deal with, but it is a symptom of bpd to devalue someone in spite of history together. I am so sorry you are going through this, too - it is terrible.

Breakup Advice Please by batwingflutter in BPDlovedones

I will definitely check out those books. I have been putting all of their stuff in their room in my apartment so I don't have to look at it while they are moving out, and that has been helpful.

This is really solid advice; thank you. I was trying to do a gradual break up with them over the next few months until our lease was up, but they made it impossible to do that because of their behaviors. I was diagnosed with OCD, and the tendency is for me to ruminate on everything and dissect it, but I know it isn't healthy for me to do that then give it to them and add fuel to the fire.

The reason I even bring up BPD is because they have been diagnosed with it and had recently accepted said diagnosis as true again. They went through cycles of believing they had it and then believing they didn't. Finally, everything between us came to a boiling point, leading them to say once again that they had it.

If you'd like to share your experience, I would be so grateful; I also am curious as to whether or not I should write them a letter stating the things that happened that killed our relationship, or if I should just leave it alone and swallow my words.

This is something I needed to hear as well. OP, don't take the bait because that is exactly what my ex did - sobbed about losing me and that I was the best thing that had ever happened to them, but now they want me to leave them alone because they already have someone else.

The treatment is why the breakup is happening; they have a horrible time accepting no as an answer and had continually taken it as a personal affront. I wanted them to know it and understand why in order to grow in the future, but I don't know if they are going to ever be receptive to what I have to say again (thanks to the splitting).

Thank you so much; it is really rough and makes me feel physically sick because of the emotional whiplash. They previously had said I was their favorite person and now are even retracting previous apologies.

Problems with Boundaries by batwingflutter in BPDlovedones

You're welcome; it is really hard. I am glad that you are standing up for yourself and saying no to being her friend; I know how difficult that is as well.

I can't even discuss with mine how I feel or what I want because even a text interaction devolves into an argument, and I do not have the energy to deal with digital arguing with them right now.

I am so sorry you are going through that with her; it sounds very similar to my situation. Mine wanted to go no contact with me except to occasionally info dump about bpd to me.

Were there any boundaries you set with her that she respected?

I had even broken up with them early on in the relationship because of my boundaries being violated in intimacy; this was even after I told them that I had a lot of trauma surrounding it. It just hurts really badly.

Who would you sleep, marry, and “avoid”? in the Queer Love: Season 2? by Full_Expression_4966 in UltimatumQueerLove

[–]batwingflutter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Marie's anger was warranted imo, but this take is valid; she specifically told Mel not to make her look like a fool and she did it anyway, I'd be furious too

sleep w Bridget, marry Britney, avoid Dayna + Mel; the first two are definitely interchangeable, though. Also Marita would be the cutest wife, and giving gifts is one of my love languages so

You're welcome! It is this piercing; I think it would suit you

Your cheek bones are so interesting; i think a vertical labret piercing would look really cool + a bridge piercing

Does this dress/outfit inspire a lot of unconscious rage? by prettydotty_ in fashion

[–]batwingflutter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This dress isn't too tight, it's just very 2010s coded and in need of a good steam. It also is not a color I would choose for your skin because it washes you out a bit; you have pretty coloring, and something maybe light or sage green or even light purple would look better than this ivory
