Comment on Is my girlfriend gaslighting me?

Really? No.
Borderline personality disorder is a special kind of crazy, yes, but it’s severe abandonment anxiety at it’s core. I hate how much BPD gets thrown around, because it’s quite a bit more benign that people understand.
This situation doesn’t tell us ANYTHING about any mental disorder she may or may not have.
IT DOES tell us that she is not a healthy individual and he needs to fucking run because we don’t want to find out what really is wrong with her.
She wanted him to let her know when he got home so she could meet him at the door. To know he was there. That is the definition of the fear of abandonment.
No, SHE wanted him to meet HER at the Uber when SHE got home.
Today, before taking an Uber home, she sent me a text wanting me to be downstairs on the street to greet her as the Uber arrives. I read it and told her that yes, I’ll be there. I didn’t notice any further text because I was in the middle of something.
can we stop villainizing a mental illness please? this is the most blatant overblown reaction ever.
also, his girlfriend is just batshit. just say that. it’s obvious, but you don’t need to insult those who suffer just because it’s a convenient tool to use as a villain.
BPD sucks all the way around. don’t use it as a catch-all for your hatred.
this is the most blatant overblown reaction ever.
correct take
Motherfucker, Im Borderline myself. I KNOW WHAT THE FUCK I’M TALKING ABOUT.
THIS IS NOT ABOUT YOU, NARCISSUS.
take it easy, dude. don’t all caps me because I don’t share your views on BPD.
also I love how you say “this is not about you” when literally you made it about you and BPD 😂 and then fabricated some murder suicide plot for some reason.
lol.

Holy shit you gotta love the Internet with people, based on this one story, thinking it makes sense to warn that she might be planning a murder suicide. Lol wow.
