I did. It's a lifelong thing, but believe it or not, it's manageable with a lot of self control and awareness.

i found out she had been sexting someone else behind my back

i confronted her about it as soon as i found out, and told her i was going to break up with her. as soon as I confronted her, she went straight for a knife and tried to cut herself. my brain panicked and took her back. at the time i felt as if her self harm and possible suicide would be on my hands. i tried to work things out but eventually i realized i didn't want to be with her anymore. any time she sensed this, she would guilt trip into staying with her. she said things like "i'd kill myself if you left me" "how could you even think about doing this to me". it was a lot to handle. i tried not to think about unhappy i was and more about how i could make it work. eventually i ran out of patience and realized that this was not sustainable and that if she were to ever kill herself it wouldn't be on my hands

that is good to hear. i hope that continues to go well for you and anyone else with BPD. i don't think it was necessarily her fault for her being the way she was. she grew up with an abusive family and had abusive boyfriends in the past. yes ultimately she did do some shitty things but i realize that her environment had a lot to do with it as well.

How was da sex? Were different personalities better than others? >_>


the sex was always bombtastic. however, i think you are getting this confused with multiple personality disorder. BPD is more characterized by things like risky behavior, unpredictable mood changes, fear of abandonment, etc.

My first BF had BPD as well, but while it was a shitload of manipulation and emotional hell I never experienced the textbook "leave me and I'll kill myself" bullshit. Jesus It's so ridiculous even for a BPD.

It feels like we all need to go through a shitty relationship before anything else. Some of us just get extra shitty ones.

Lol sounds about right. Except she probably fucked anything that stood to piss that gave her attention and you never found out about it.

What really amuses me is mental health forums on BPD barely even mention cheating or it's just a quick glance and time line of the times she has. It's like it's old news and everyone is well aware you're gonna get cheated on left and right dating a BPD chick.

i'm glad you eventually got out of it. i remember when i was still in the relationship i read stories of people being married to a BPD partner. imagine that hell on earth.

dating a neurotypical woman is so much easier and a huge relief. i almost forgot what it felt like to be into your girlfriend but it feels good man

before i met her, she had just broken up with her long term BF and jumped into dating sites. in the span of 2 months she fucked 6 guys not including me

yes her body her choice but c'mon

i pretty much just ignored all the red flags because she treated me like a king, at least for the first 6 months

Is this the same girl who sent you a video of herself masturbating before you ever met or even talked to her? If so, you shouldn't have been surprised that she's a slut.

100% sure mine didn't cheat though. I don't think it's par for the course. Although I'm starting to think I had it easy.

Yours sounded like a real catch TC. At least it's all in the past.

The girl who I knew (not involved with) threw herself at any guy who paid any attention to her and expected to sleep with them ASAP. This was despite the fact that she's a misandrist.

Count your blessings I guess... BPD has a long list of symptoms and some borrow other traits from personality disorders such as anti-social or narcissistic behaviors. The one I was involved with was more histrionic but close enough.... infidelity, compulsive lying, and substance abuse pretty much come standard though.

My partner was/is diagnosed with BPD. I've dated them close to a year, known them for close to 2 years now.

They have some anxiety issues but they're fully aware of it and really do try. She knows when she's being a bitch to people and 9/10 times it is valid.

Even though she's been diagnosed, she doesn't really have any major red flags. Doesn't try to guilt me into anything, manipulate etc...If I want to break up I'm sure she'd be hurt and stuff but for the most part, she's really respectful.

Only had a few partners before me. Drunk a bit but never did anything too detrimental.

I'm not really worried overall.

it's always hardest to see when you're so close to it. but i knew you'd figure it out in your own time.

though i figured around the "let's have a one-way open relationship so you don't leave me" part you'd see the problem

How did she treat you like a king?

-roped me in with the best sex I ever had at the time
-boosted my ego with words
-bought me gifts often (before I realized she was actually broke AF)

she was initially very nice to me, but arguments with her would almost always end up being an all out war

if his mom has it it's very likely that he has it too

sounds like she has it under control. it's when it's compounded with suicidal tendencies/depression that it really gets dangerous

she actually offered to let me sleep with other people eventually, but it didn't feel right and by then I didn't want to be with her anymore.
