Am I Wrong for Being Obsessed with My FP?

I'm so bad about double, triple, and even quadruple texting people especially my mom and my FP and then everyone else I leave hanging for days. I know this is bad. I am so obsessed with my FP and it's getting a bit unhealthy. I think about him 24/7 in all kinds of ways, message him from the time I wake up until the time I go to bed and let my sleep schedule (or lack thereof) go. I don't sleep until 4am sometimes. I'm moving really fast with him and don't even care what others think because I love him and want him to live with me if everything goes well. Am I wrong for all of this?

      I feel you. Its very tough. My partner and I are currently on a break because of a myriad of reasons, one being that he felt our relationship has felt like an obligation and that I rely on him for happiness. Being apart from him is very tough and I sometimes have to fight the urge to text him. He too is on my mind nearly always. I feel like I also have been wanting to live with him very badly, but everytime I've brought it up he's said no. Our time apart recently has helped me a bit with leveling out, I don't feel as obsessive as I was a while back. Just keep in mind to not neglect your own needs. Take a step back and ask yourself if texting multiple times is a result of anxiety and fear, as well as if you are relying on this person to make you happy. It can be tough to recognize or acknowledge or move past, but the truth is the true happiness comes from within, and we're all on a journey of learning how to uncover it. If you want to discuss anything further I'm definitely open for a chat! :)

      Agreed. But if your family understand you have this illness they will probably be understanding. Being overeager, impatient or friendly isn't a crime as long as your not hurting anyone. FP romantic love is complicated but truly a magical bond. I'm working on myself everyday to be less clingy with my bf for his peace of mind. As long as your taking steps to maintain healthy boundaries try not to brand yourself as wrong just cause you struggle. I also struggle to keep in touch with people. It feels like a lot at the same time and I think because of that we prioritise nessessity.

        @AtomicAce I'm so sorry you're going through that! I definitely put a bit too much happiness into people especially the person I'm dating. Thank you for being so understanding!

      You're not a bad person, but as someone else with BPD, I can tell you that you're going too far. Doing this is going to cause you a lot of problems. If you need advice for coping with BPD, feel free to ask or send me a message!
