My ex has bpd though I didn't know about it until months after we broke up. Our relationship was always pretty good but many things instantly made sense after finding out. Though we remained close friends for quite a while after are breakup she did eventually drift away. I miss her a lot. We haven't really talked much since late last summer cut to yesterday I messaged her on Facebook. Not that I thought we could get back together or to profess my undying love or anything I just wanted to say hi and she immediately unfriendly me. I don't really now what I trying to say there and many things that are going through my head right now that I'll get into later just right now I just feel bummed

Hey CipherNinja!
It's understandably jarring to have been unfriended by your ex after reaching out just to say hi. This is someone you had a connection with. However, it's also important to recognize that people's behaviors and actions can vary based on their individual personality traits, experiences, and coping mechanisms. While it's reasonable to have expected a response from her, it's possible that your ex may be struggling with her own challenges at this time. Maybe communicating with you brings up conflicting emotions that she doesn't want to deal with. We can't know for sure.
What I'm saying is maybe her actions are a reflection of her own personal limitations, rather than a direct reflection of your worth or anything else.
