It hasn't really been long enough (a month a week) but my ex has been taken to a psychiatric hospital so he obviously hasn't really had time to latch onto someone else. I heard he has a crush on one of the nurses though which doesn't particularly bother me. Eventually it'd probably be another patient. He's the type who 'falls' for people very easily.
He has autism and is certainly not a typical stud who most women would be fawning over. He comes across as 'sweet' though so someone eventually will fall for the tricks I did.
It was my fault he was taken to the psychiatric hospital, apparently.

He moved out and she moved into my place... .that lasted a total of 3 weeks as she literally disappeared when I went out of town for work. Life with dad was , apparently, not as junior had imagined and he moved back in with mom; she had her supply back. That was almost a year and a half ago and I have not heard a word from her at all.
-----This adds new info to your relationship====in addition to her BPD splitting (you all good, son all bad, then you all bad), is it possible that she is so focused on the son that it was hard for her to give you the attention she otherwise would have? Son sounds like a handful. Also as u know BPD runs in families---son might have inherited traits==-=he moved out, she moved in with you, then son moved back---that might have been his own BPD impulsivity and push-pull too

(he sure was!)
. Also as u know BPD runs in families---son might have inherited traits
(I think that he definitely did... .although I have not been able to classify hims as neatly within this context)

(I entirely agree... .you are spot on Shatra... .thanks for your thoughts!)

Not that I know of. I don't really know what I was to her tho, it's such a mess that I can't even begin to work it out. She said things like "friendships and romances are equal to me" but then again she never had any romances. Then once she said that it bothers her that she isn't anyone's first choice. She started new school and got to know new people so maybe that has been enough for now.

I haven't been. I try not to think about it though. Talked to a mutual friend who told me she wasn't. Also said she's ruined just about all her friendships. Which I understand because all she did was bad mouth her friends and ST them . But whatever , not my problem anymore.
