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.

Someone suggested that my exBPDbf may have found a fellow pwBPD in his new relationship (he is dating a 23 year old girl that he basically hooked up with the moment he walked out of my door!).  I believe he was having an emotional relationship with her for up to a year before he left me.  She would text him about her trust issues, feelings, etc.  

I was just wondering out of curiousity, what is the nature of a relationship when BOTH parties are BPD?

I don't think, that there is an exact answer to this question. Borderline is a very complex disorder which lies on a more complex spectrum with other PDs. Someone can be BPD with traits of HPD, NPD, ASPD or even DPD (which is not in the Cluster-B). We are talking about human beings, not about machines. A pwBPD who as also ASPD-traits will dominate a pwBPD who has DPD-traits, I think.
