When I was with my now ex BPDgf I dont recall having an argument or even bickering with her till at least 4 months in to the relationship. She is now with my replacement and has been with him 4 weeks and getting informed they are arguing already ! Surly this can't be a good sign plus they are constantly together almost 24-7 ! Can anyone give views on weather spending 24-7 with someone that has BPD is good or very bad at the start of a relationship and when did your first argument start into your relationship ?
I was with my ex 24/7 at the start of the relationship. Though we never argued untill about 5 months into the relationship. It wasn't really an arguement it was more of a transference of her critical parent to me then arguing with the critical parent. I was left bewildered. I refused to argue with her but sort if wanted space triggering her abandonment issues. If only I knew them what I know now.
We live 4 blicks from each other so we were around each other an awful lot (apparently not enough). What you said about transference. Spot on. Barely a raised voice during those your a bad boyfriend treat me special or lose me speeches, but holy hell i felt like such a steaming pile of crap i didnt fight back, and when the last one hit, i cracked and took space to sort it out, and when i did, i asked her to go to therapy only to find out I was done. Time for the new guy.
