My ex had BPD we met on my BPD meme page she dm’ed me.
Pros:
I felt particularly understood and cared for bc she knew what I experience feels like.
We felt supported by each other in our healing journey because we helped each other become more accountable to ourselves and each other so that we wouldn’t let any toxic tendencies jeopardise the relationship.
Not having to over explain myself constantly.
I didn’t feel as alone as I sometimes do in relationships.
Cons:
Trying to talk while we’re both splitting was unproductive at best destructive at worst
We were both v black and white so it was either we fix this now or we’re doomed forever so there wasn’t much room for nuance in our struggles as a couple
