Relationship #BorderlinePersonalityDisorder #Relationships #relationshipswithbpd

I’ve never had a good relationship. I mean, sure we had good times but if you looked deeply into it, the bpd, depression, anxiety, and ptsd would always get in the way. More so the bpd it seems. No man wants to love me, they just don’t want to be alone. I’ve been with my fiancé for about 4 years now. We have two kids. One is his from another marriage, which the mother is not in the picture and she lives with us. She’s eleven and I love her like my own. We always have one of our own, she’s two now. I love my daughter more than I could EVER describe, but having her with him has been hard. Especially with me having bpd. He doesn’t have a real job, so we live with his alcoholic mother who puts so much stress on us all. Which constantly triggers me. He’s such an angry man now. Very easily set off. It’s so hard to be with him and I don’t know what to do anymore. Sure we have good times but it’s more bad than good. I see men love their women or whatever and I’m. SO jealous and I hate that about myself. I just wish I didn’t or he didn’t make me feel like a burden. Like I’m hard to be with. It’s breaking me down.

How can I support my partner with Borderline Personality Disorder?

I've been dating my current partner for 3 months now. When things are good, they're perfect but when things are bad, well, it nearly ends us. My partner has BPD and I've been trying to learn more about it and what I can do to help. The most helpful information I've found so far has been on The Mighty (Thank you @forrest-jamie ) and is why I'm here now. He also has serious trust issues and gets really paranoid about it. Every message I get he wonders about, though rarely asks. He asks me every couple days if I'm seeing someone else and constantly says all he wants is complete honesty but doesn't believe me anyway. I am always open and honest about everything; I don't have anything to hide and am 100% loyal. We both know we can't keep this up, but neither of us know what to do. Any advice or information would be amazing as I know so little about the extent of BPD and if there's anything I can do. Thank you so much in advance!

Black and white thinking at the end of a relationship.

I’ve just got out of a three year relationship and I am very much splitting on my ex.

I’m convinced he cheated on me throughout the relationship, treated me badly, and that he never loved me. I feel he owes me an apology and I want it. He says he didn’t do anything wrong but he lied so much throughout our relationship that I don’t believe him when he says that.

If he did love me he’d still be here and as he’s not why did he say he did for three years?

My heart is broken and I can only see the (massive) list of things he did wrong.

I’ve demanded an apology and he says he’ll call later to have an adult conversation but he still doesn’t admit to things I know he is lying about.

falling in love with a stranger #BorderlinePersonalityDisorder

i get so attached and fall so quickly. i cant decipher between platonic and romantic relationships half of the time and i feel myself falling for this guy so fast and so hard. i have no idea if he’s even into me as more than a friend. i crave his constant attention and want to be around him. i feel as though he’s quickly becoming my FP and i don’t want to destroy myself by falling for him or allowing him to be my FP but i have no idea how to stop or control it #BorderlinePersonalityDisorder #FavoritePerson #relationshipswithbipolar #relationshipswithbpd
