I can't call him my partner but I love this man and he knows it. 2 weeks ago he told me he was seeing someone else. Heartbroken I got back with an ex. He doesn't know. I've tried to remain friends with him though but he has just ignored my attempts.
My friend is getting married and I have posted a few status updates on Whatsapp. I reached out to him again today asking him to talk to me. He instantly blocked me.
We both suffer from Borderline Personality Disorder but he has someone which I accepted reluctantly. Why has he blocked me today now. I'm gutted. Even if I can't be with him because he has someone new I still need him as a friend.
What do I do? My mind is racing

It sounds as if he really does just want to move on. As hard as that is you have to respect his wishes. Blocking you could mean anything but what it does mean right now though is he doesn't want to speak to you. There isn't anything you can do. Sometimes things just aren't meant to last. And the more you push the worse this will get.

I have no intention of pushing this and he has been checking all my social media for the last two weeks. I haven't checked his at all. Are those the actions of someone who wants to move on honestly. In any case if that's what he wants I shall oblige and have deleted all my social media so he can't look. Truly hurt by this. I can't stop crying on and off.

Not sure this is actually going to be very helpful. But sometimes I block people because it's all just too intense for me. I don't want to fight with that person but I also can't handle the intensity of it, too much emotion could make me say things I will regret. So I block them to give me time to get back to that normal base level again. Because I don't want things to turn nasty. Perhaps in time you can have some contact, as friends. Right now I would let things simmer down a bit.
You could just block him on your social media rather than deleting it all and perhaps cutting yourself off from other people.
I don't know right now it sounds like you're just triggering each other still. Take a breath and step back for a bit. It might be what you both need, a little bit of space.

I feel like I'm dying inside but it's done now. Just pray to come through this

You will. And perhaps in time you can find a way to be friends again. Right now It sounds like you just need to give each other a bit of space. Focus on you for a bit.

He doesn't say much but he's done it before. Finished with me but been really hurt for doing it.
He's left again but has been watching my social media even though he has another girlfriend.
My question is if he has a girlfriend who he is staying with is he actually BPD or was it just me he didn't really like.
I am kind of seeing someone new and he has found outand instantly blocked me from contacting him but I know he is still watching my profiles. I deleted all my social media last night because I don't want him to see anything that I am doing. I don't think he deserves to know after treating me this way. I still miss him bitterly and just keep crying.
Will he be back?

This isn't love. People who love each other don't keep playing each other like this. And what about the people you're both with? Do they not even matter?

No they don't in comparison. Just being honest.
