BPD girlfriend contacted me after 12 years. She found me on linked in (my own business) and called the main line and I picked up the phone. Cue the x-files music. On a serious note, I had another BPD relationship end and hopefully I can share and contribute to the community. Btw, I've only had 2 BPD relationships...that I know of.

Nothing really of note. She was playing it coy as to why she reached out. It was bizarre, but I guess that's expected. She got married to an older millionaire, had 3 kids which a nanny takes care of and she went back to school to change careers. She never said "we" as in, her family, she just said "I" the whole time. She also invited me to have lunch which I declined. And this begs the question, if you were her husband, how would you feel that your wife would reach out and ask an old love for a lunch date? No more to the story really. My current situation I will post in a another thread.

X-files or Criminal Minds?

Let's split the difference and go with Unsolved Mysteries. One of the best theme songs ever. Criminal Minds is cool too though.
