Title: Poll: Age age gap in your BPD relationship? How gap in your BPD relationship? How did it compare? Post by: ohmygosh on February 25, 2013, 08:38:46 PM Hi again folks, just a curious question here. In my case I was a lot older than my x BPD partner. Just wondering if this is a common trend for them or just the same sort of percentages as the general population?

She told me she doesn't get on well with people her own age cause they haven't had life experiences like she had. Her new partner is just 5 years older than her I was 19 yes older just another thing that made it really unusual.

When we split up she said I was too young for her and she needed someone older but I know an older guy wouldn't put up with her childish behaviour for too long. She told me she's always dated guys who were a lot younger than herself. Make of that what you will. Title: Re: Poll: Age age gap in your BPD relationship? How gap in your BPD relationship?

A lot of my friends wondered how we even got together- I think it's because he mirrored me enough that I didn't even consider his age. He seemed so put-together and mature... . well, until the end.
