Empaths and BPD

It actually feels like I can read the other peoples thoughts or what they need from me, thus BPDs are very good at getting inside someones mind and manipulating people. Though this is the reason my mood changes depending on the company of the people i am with. I think of it as a curse and blessing at the same time.

This is something my BPD girlfriend would say. She believes she can read peoples minds. I cant tell her otherwise. It often causes problems though. I wonder sometimes how accurate people really are at reading moods. My GF is almost always wrong when reading my moods. I can be happy and she could flip out and cry because I am not happy. Its not even true. She often thinks I am upset or even angry when I am absolutely not or even happy sometimes. She is convinced and thinks I am lying. When she accuses me of being angry when I am not then "punishes" me I get quite angry and therefore she makes her own self fulfilling prophecy. We have had probably 100 fights because I started out happy and she pushed me to this level because she THINKS I am upset about something. Then she says... See I knew you were upset LOL. I wonder if this happens to you guys?

one time i had a crush with somoene with bpd and i think one of the reasons of the crush i thought he understand my moods more than others. like others wouldn't notice and thought it was insignifigant but he would notice.
i have read they say that they have problem in this specific what you say. they think
you are angry when you are not. can not read well that.
make that mistake. (i do not know if i do it except i assume all the time others do not care.and i do not trust them ib general. prefer that than having high hopre and then get disapointed)
but weirdly the bpd i knew i felt that he was the only one who could tell i am angry when others didn't care.
i think he didn’t care either but he noticed my mood somehow and i had the illussion because of it he cares

lol I had do double check this post wasn't made by my BF This is something he would say lol, he has a few NPD traits but not full on. It makes situations like this hard to understand where eachother is coming from.

I would say I'm an empath, but I'm still not sure if I actually 'am' or If I am just super sensitive and then 'making stuff up' as to how I'M feeling.

I think without bragging I am pretty good at reading people and am generally tuned in pretty well to 'neutral people's' emotional state. It's the people closest to me I tend to get paranoid about.
