Borderline or Narc?
Borderline or Narc?
I just dumped my boyfriend of two months (see my story uner Share Your Story)and question whether he is BPD or NPD...
When we first started dating (literally after the first date) he would randomly send me texts asking if I missed him. I found this odd but like many women converted that finding from odd to charming. I think this is at the root of most of my bad relationships. If I went with my gut I wouldn't become involved with these wackos but I so want to be in a loving relationship that I put on my rose colored glasses and do a lot of converting. The relationship went at a Ferrari's pace, by the second date he asked me to be exclusive and referred to me as his girlfriend. Texts came at all hours (3AM texts awoke me that said "I am so in love with you" "I am fantasizing about you") He frequently would stare at me and say "Look at you. MM-MM. So beautiful, so sexy, like a model and all MINE." "You cast a spell on me, I think about you all day, I want to be with you every minute, I want us to grow old together, I want to hold you in my arms forever..." Twice during the relationship he stopped contacting me because something I said made him think I was going to be a challenge to date. He didn't talk to me about it, just stopped contacting me, without any notice. I had to pursue him to find out what I did or said. The first two times we worked it out (read he admitted he misinterpreted) the last time I dumped him before he could dump me- it was inevitable. I will say he was very respectful at the beginning as I was not willing to sleep with him until the 10th date. Once the sex began he would go on for literally over an hour! And twice a night. He is 43 not 23, and I found this odd.
During sex he would keep his eyes open and tell me how sexy and beautiful I was and how lucky he was to have me. He was obsessed with my body and my face. Constantly telling me so.He would say "Look at these legs. They are mine. MMMMMM!"After the latest weekend marathon he turned on me. The man who wrote me two love poems, who wanted to see me EVERY day and DID in fact see me nearly every day, the man who risked losing his job by leaving early to be with me, who 24 hours before said I know we were meant to be blew me off because he thought I might be too much of a princess.My therapist said it sounded like borderline personality disorder or narcissism. Any thoughts? Advice?
