Before you can make things better, you have to stop making them worse... Have you considered that being critical, judgmental, or invalidating toward the other parent, no matter what she or he just did will only make matters worse? Someone has to be do something. This means finding the motivation to stop making things worse, learning how to interrupt your own negative responses, body language, facial expressions, voice tone, and learning how to inhibit your urges to do things that you later realize are contributing to the tensions.

I was looking for an adult attachment quiz for myself, and I found this blog and video. 

If this post is moved that's OK, but I am posting it here rather than in the general BPD information section because I feel like it is relevant to the painful questions people ask here on the "Leaving" board - did he/she ever really love me?  Do they ever regret their actions?  How can they do this to someone?  How can he/she appear to "move on" so quickly while I am lying here a total wreck (answer, they stash all the negative feelings in the "bad" part of the split)

Some people in the comments on the video took issue with the "grapefruit" visual aid but I personally found it really helpful.
