i think one of the troubling aspects of bpd is black n white thinking. with me, i either have to be super best close friends with someone or i let them be.
once i overheard a colleague planning to go on some trip to some wildlife sanctuary, n immediately i started dreaming that we'd go together and be buddies.
theres always a middle ground. in ur case, u can ask a common friend is ur ex is fine.
its okay if he's not fine for sometime. not fine doesnt mean he's crying, whimpering, having a nervous breakdown, hyperventilating.
maybe he's missing you, maybe he recalls some memories and wishes things were different.
but if he misses you, he can call you. missing someone doesnt necessarily mean you have to get back with them.
i miss my old friends but i dont want to talk with them.
1) talking with them wont solve anything
2) they have moved on
3) after conversing with them, i feel drained
stalking on social media-- almost everyone does this. one of the vices of social media.
earlier i used to imagine a dramatized reunion with my friends. like in that tv show called friends where they'll come over and we'll have a big argument n in the end everything will be sorted out.
it never happened. i have birthday coming up and i still hope someone would call me. but they have moved on. i'm happy for them.
even if someone does call, it wont 'fix' me.
even if ur ex misses u, its ok. missing someone doesnt have to result in getting back with the person.
hope it didnt come across as harsh. it wasnt intended to be harsh.
and i dont think remember ronni was harsh as well. it sucks to have bpd and be so insensitive. i still am and its exhausting.
