how long did the splitting last

[How to communicate after a contentious divorce...]

Mine, 5years ago would change to MR Hyde and maintain for a few hours. this spring, 2 months. Now its been 5 month and I'm before the big bang black. But i do know that she goes on my FB profile more than 10 times a day... .

she is less attractive now that i think about it. Why was i crying just before ?

Remember splitting is the 'habit' of focusing on all of the positive traits of someone without the negative, or vice-versa; the disorder causes the sufferer to see everything in black and white, instead of seeing a gray, integrated human, a mix of good traits and bad traits.  The Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde changing modes of a borderline are just in reaction to their opinion of us in the moment.

We all split BTW; think of someone you no longer 'talk to' and notice how you might focus on their negative traits, maybe to the complete exclusion of their positive ones, to justify the rift in your head.  A borderline just takes that to the extreme.

It took a long time the first time for my borderline ex to split me and focus on everything she didn't like about me, what an ugly wake-up call that was, but towards the end of the relationship she could flop back and forth a few times a day.  I never knew what I was going to get, just knew it was completely unreliable and kept me on edge all the time, so bailing was the only choice.
