how long have you been broken up? and how long have you been together with her?
yes, this is sad, but sounds like a common case of replacing, just like a battery, no feeling, rebounding etc, she will go thru the same issues with the next person.

thats so common with relationships, when its good its really good, until reality sinks in... . the first few months are always great!
and breaking up is soo hard, the pain the emotions and what not... .
be thankful that the relationship didn't last many of years and you found out sooner than later.
Keep posting, it helps get the feelings out and with the healing process.

Feel your pain. A lot of us here have gone through a similar realization. Process the pain anyway you can that's healthy don't hold onto it, it's not your behavior, it's all hers.
Lean on your nonBPD friends you need them even if they can't understand the BPD illness, they do know a lot of times, what you deserve and what you really enjoy in life. Try to focus on what you enjoy/love in the nonBPD world, focus on your personal freedoms and health. I know I have to now too.
