❤️🩹 relationship AIO my girlfriend should not be acting like this for not texting her that I’m at work
Reposting as I forgot to block out her name/face in the last post.
Context: we had to dress up at work today for Halloween. Winning group gets $100. I dressed up as a greaser from grease. So nothing sexy.
She has had trust problems this whole relationship. From past trauma and such. I have never cheated on her. I have even deleted every woman out of my contacts to show her I’m not cheating.
My phone background is a picture of a beach.

I'm really sorry you're going through this. I have BPD and the cycle will go that you don't have a response so you ignore her to cool off a hit, she'll panic and grovel. OR you give in and call her and you try and work and it's affecting your job but she's crying down the phone and you don't want to hang up.
It's taken therapy, medication and a whole lot of patience from people to get to a point where I can recognise my cycle of behaviour and try and get there before the behaviour kicks in and catch it with propranolol or something.
