Title: Anyone have a PWBPD who is male? Post by: Watermelon18 on August 21, 2026, 04:44:21 PM Hi,
My boyfriend has not been diagnosed formally with BPD, but my mom was, and I have read so many books on it. I'd be shocked if he didn't have it. I'm operating as though he does have it. I've read lots of posts on here, and lots of them are about females with BPD. There may be no difference, but does anyone know about possible differences? He is very verbally abusive when triggered (splitting) and so it was not possible for us to live together anymore. He became homeless, but he is now getting help (because of me and my direction) to getting some transitional housing. I do notice that having boundaries is critical. I was afraid for many years to implement boundaries because I thought that he'd leave me. However, that is not the case. Things are still hard, but much better since we don't live together. Anyone else out there with a bpd boyfriend as opposed to girlfriend? And anyone out there experience other people judging the fact that you are still with your bpd person? I feel that it is hard to be with them, but I simply don't want to leave the relationship. People just have a hard time understanding.... Thanks!! |
