Is this normal? She used to love Horror, and used to love Harley Quinn and wrestling.
The last time she posted in a horror group, we're in was nearly 2 weeks ago.
And nearly 3 weeks since she posted on her WWE/Harley Quinn fan pages.
Is this normal for BPD?

that seems like it could be normal for just about anyone who was in a very painful relationship - i suppose it depends on the person and how attached/detached they might be to their ex, their memories, etc. when i left my BPD wife, any reminder could be excruciating. and people with BPD suffer intense emotions, so i would venture to say your ex is avoiding pain catalyzed by reminders.

Hi Tonetta1995,
Maybe she’s busy and she hasn’t had time to frequent her favorite sites? Another moderator has said that we don’t need to pathologize everything. How’s your healing coming along Tonetta1995?

True, though she doesn't go out anywhere... .But the healing is going slowly...

Excerpt
But the healing is going slowly...
Aside from the things that you shared together, do you have your own hobbies? What do you do for self care? For example you like wrestling, do you like working out? Do you exercise?

Hi Tonnetta
I don't know that this is a BPD thing. My ex shared his love of motor racing with me and a certain type of English pottery. He was interesting and fascinating and I learnt to love these things too. Now we are no more I cannot bear right now to look at my collection or watch racing, it was such a part of us, of what we shared and had fun with, it hurts me so very much. Maybe in time, maybe not.

I would ask you why are you still following her if you broke up with her?
