What do I do now
My bpd husband is in one of his moods. He shoots in a pool leage twice a week and I normally play tennis on those days. He came to watch me play for a couple minutes before he went to pool and asked me to come watch him when I finished. He knows that I don't like to go and watch him.
i was raped
i thought i would come here, because i have no were else to go, i cant talk to anyone about this, because none of my friends will listen to this sort of stuff, and i feel like i am dieing inside of me, it hurts so much. can any one help me get through this.
mind games
can anyone tell me what characteristics/triggers etc to look out for when people play mind games, try to manipulate you? or any sites i could visit that give the pyschological lowdown on what causes that behaviour, why a person would behave that way. ditto passive-aggressive behaviour – how do you spot a man with those chracteristics; are there certain signs, clues, personality traits that give them away? i have been badly bruised (emotionally) by my ex and i am only just realising how he 'pressed my buttons' to trigger reactions in me (to his advantage); how he manipulated me.
anyone else have these uncontrollable urges
when me and my girl start to have sex i tend to get violent for some reason and i think she doesn't like it to much understandably. besides the rough slaps on the butt during the sex, when i climax i always find myself slappin her really hard it the face and then of course sex turns into a fight and it's really affecting the relationship and i dont know what to do.
