Am I being oversensitive or taken advantage of?

That's great you've ordered the books, I hope they are enlightening.
 
We had quite a lengthy talk this evening about everything and I think it helped her see how I'm feeling and helped me highlight my own areas that need self improvement
 
Sounds like hopeful progress, I am glad to hear it. Thanks for keeping us posted here.
 
Oh boy, where do I begin with the update... It turns out that her bpd does not handle NRE well. I've spent the last 3 days dealing with severe depression and suicide attempts. 😔

I'm scared to leave her alone. She hasn't seen new guy in a week as he's been away with work. She thinks he's home tonight. We're going to the drs today to get her help because I can't do this alone.

I'm meant to be going out Saturday, but I don't want to now, as I'll be worried about her the whole time. She says she'll be fine and might be with new guy, but nothing is actually arranged and she's not spoken to him in a day or 2.
 
I'm so sorry :(
 
I'm glad you're getting her to the doctor. You're her husband, not her therapist, not her MD.

Rather than going on a date yourself, you'd probably be better off staying in and reading the Eggshells book. I personally don't think it's fair to ask a person to get involved with one when one's own home life is in a shambles. What do you have to offer right now?
 
Hi Jezzara, thanks for that update. I'm really sorry things are so rough right now, it sounds like BPD and NRE are a dangerous combination for her.
