Heh, I dated a guy for a whole year who most likely suffered borderline personality disorder. He was the first guy I ever had sex with (lucky me) and he seemed quite OK to begin with.
People who suffer BPD often exhibit the following symptoms:
- the "borderline dance" of pushing people away then pulling them close
- severe abandonment issues
- a feeling of "emptiness", a fragmentation or lack of identity (ultimately dissociation into multiple personalities)
- splitting, or black and white thinking where you are considered perfect then evil then perfect
- severe mood swings
- self harm (cutting, burning, suicide)
- crisis generation
If you meet anyone who exhibits a few of the above borderline behaviours, whether they are diagnosed or not then run. Just run. Don't look back, don't contact them ever again, keep your distance and he may be able to right himself in time. As others have said, if he's truly BPD he will flip back over pretty quickly and move on.
Chances are he was abused as a child, it's a long road but I believe he can recover in time. I'm on good terms with my ex now. That said, we do have the pacific ocean between us and that helps.
I hope things work out well for you and the crisis is averted.
