Yes, a relationship with someone with BPD can awaken those strong up/down emotions. I don't have any specific advice though other then to pass on something someone else conveyed to me...
The emotions you felt around your BPD ex are your emotions. They were there before she came along, and still are. All the romanticism, feeling alive, passionate, that is all you. This person suggested to me therapy, and practicing letting those feels come out around others. Easier said then done of course, but I found it to be good advise.
