I do... I don't
Posted : 20 Mar, 2014 02:18 PM

I thought I'd found my soulmate but then things got... strange. Suddenly I wasn't good enough, and everything was always my fault. I realized then that I didn't want to be in a relationship anymore... I was gonna try and be friends but then he kept begging me to come back and even laughed at me when I told him how hurt I was. So I left for good. My heart is really sad but maybe I'll find someone who will treat me well and actually love me for me.

That kind of behavior by your ex is called Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). BPD is a horrible personality disorder. I encourage everyone on here to become very familiar with BPD, what causes it, the signs someone may have BPD, and how you should cope/guard when you are involved with someone who has BPD.

I did wonder if something wasn't all ok up there. My brother is Bipolar so I'm familiar with mood swings and such... I just... don't wanna date someone who isn't at least aware there is something wrong and is getting help!

People with BPD who do get help (either by self-choice or court appointed) are often mis-diagnosed as having bipolar disorder and hence they never receive the proper treatment. BP can be regulated with meds, BPD cannot. Often people with BPD will never seek treatment because one of the characteristics of BPD is the person always views everyone else in the world as wrong or having wronged them and they never see their own shortcomings. Again, this is one of those things that I recommend everyone becoming very familiar with.

My ex has bpd... it is so sad because he is in denial about it. I thought for years it was Bipolar but, he is BPD to a T... like , they wrote the book about HIM! Such a horrible thing to live with for the person who has it and the ones who deal with them.
