Anyone here date someone with BPD?

[Agent Orange]

I feel like thats exactly what happened between the last time this cycle took effect. Looking back at some notes I wrote to myself it was only not a month ago that apparently she dumped me over text while I was sleeping. It was like she came over, moped, we exchanged some words and everything was "back to normal". Even her letter failed to address the shortcomings in our relationship and just mentioned the good times. That was the hard part.

Regardless, it won't take away from the fact that I cared for her, and still do to an extent.

I go through regular mood swings every 4 months, and I feel like the whole world crashes down on me. Im doing extremely well for my age, and im so happy with where life is going. Every 4 months its happened to me though. One event triggers another which just sends me in a spiral and if im in a relationship it tends to fall apart and i just find someone else.

Everyone suffers from something, some more then others. I feel like if you see good qualities in the person try and work through it.

Im now suspecting a girl I was seeing a long time ago was bipolar. Its wasn't a topic I was familiar with at that time and still not other than this thead. She was crazy in bed and seemed easy to get along with but one day a couple of months in she starts flipping out screaming at me on the phone. I don't remember which one of us hung up but I deleted her number immediately so I wouldn't be tempted to call her again.
Months go by and I run into her at a coffee shop. She apologized for the freakout and we ended up back at her place.
Maybe a couple of months or less of this goes on then I find out she was actually in a relationship with someone else at the time. I found out by running into the two of them a few hours after we'd been together at her place on afternoon.
That one screaming incident on the phone months earlier was enough to know I'd never want anything serious with her and I didn't want any part of a MMF scene so that day was the last I saw her. Screaming will always be a deal breaker.

so much drama with these millennials.

No truer word have been spoken.

I swear girls nowadays are straight up moody brats. I remember girls in high school and up to the early 2000's were a shit ton cooler and always down to just hang out. Now I just can't even. Seriously, WTF is with seemingly EVERY woman on anti-depressants ???? :nchantr


Just ain't worth it anymore. Now I just sit back with a smile with my freedom, toys, money, and stress free life as all my coworkers and friends bitch and moan:laughing

Folks with BPD never get better. It is a disease that can be managed, but she will never be free of it.

Her perceptions and reactions are not founded in reality. Nothing you are doing is the problem.

If you stay with her you would have to accept this. I wouldn't be able to handle it in a long term relationship or marriage.

Well Stated!! Did someone hack your account? :laughing

If there was a particularly stunning example of female architecture nearby, my wife would point her out to me in case I missed her. I would do the same for a beefcake. For us, they were just scenery.

Lucky Man. My Wife does the same thing!! :thumbup

I have dated 2 Women with BPD. I tried and tried and tried, in the end I could not take it any longer.

Good luck to you OP. I'm very sorry that you are having to go through this.
