Is extreme silent treatment a weapon of people with borderline personality disorder? They just dump you unexpectedly then cease all contact? And do they normally come back. I'm almost three months out. And nothing but her driving by my house a few times

Silent treatment is a very hurtful way of asserting control, though a break-up introduces another dynamic. I'm sorry you are hurting from this, maybe you can check this past discussion out for some perspective from other members:

BPD BEHAVIORS: Silent treatment - verbal abuse.

When we become triggers for the core pain of a pwBPD, they often cut off contact to cope with their disordered emotions (and recycling or contacting us again is the other side of this, the common denominator being those disordered emotions).

It's been almost three months now. And I'm seeing thru all the lies and her actions speaking louder than words. It's sick. She took our baby too.
