I quote from this site:
--------------------------------------
staying with them,
you are keeping them from developing
the emotional capacities.
You are enabling them to
continue being emotionally ill.
-----------------------------------------
I have an unique radar for the BPD and bipolar , as my mother have issues from both camps. I also have been with a girl before witch showed all possible behaviors mention under the BPD, but I'm not capable diagnosing people.
After I detected that my new girlfriend checked off several boxes in the BPD, I decided to go no contact. I still feel I have to tell her some info about her possible state as I see her suffering, so she can hopefully recover, maybe write an email later on.
I am an empath, I read people very well, in the start I told her that I saw a little girl in her, afraid being abandoned. She was positive, later on I saw how right I really was.
Q's:
* How can my loving accompaniment with a BPD make her worce?
* Should I gently tell her about what I think about her possible BPD in the future?
I guess I want a kind of comfort that I did the right thing of avoiding her, as she try to charm me in,
anyway thank you.
