Title: How to get BPD partner to understand my sexual assault
Post by: Eve_of_Dante on July 04, 2019, 02:45:51 AM
I was recently sexually assaulted by my boss. My BPD partner calls me a slag and says I shouldn't have been out on the work night out for it to happen.

Does anyone else have any experience of how a BPD partner deals with the other in the relationship being sexually assaulted?

Hi.

I am sorry to hear of your assault and that you partner is not supportive of you during this time.

Many people have a hard time with difficult emotions and will respond in odd of even painful ways.  I don't know if that is part of the problem with your partner though. It might be.  I think what is important is that you seek support and understanding elsewhere, from people who will listen without dismissing it or turning it around and blaming you.

Who do you have you can talk with about this?
