Stay supportive to a BP, when they always guilt trip you, call you names, blame you for their faults??
My X is BP (found out after i left him)
He dont have much family left, he's pushed away the only living ones, as well as his best friend of 20 years. His mom passed, his grandpartents passed. He has an estranged relationship with his father.
We're both in this new town together (without family close by) I tried I mean I tried to be there for him as a friend after the break up. But i couldnt handle his emotional abuse any more.
He goes thru these cycles of calling me omg. he will call me like 40 times in an hour. One right after another it gets so bad at times we take the phone off the hook.
We have a child together that is why I still stay in contact with him. He will call me late at night to see if i am home or out with someone else! He goes nuts if i dont answer the phone at night. Cos' he don't want me to move on.
I found out that he did these same things to his X wife. Nice of my mother and etc to tell me this crap now! He wished death on her and well his wish did come true with the price of his first born daughter.
He has no seen, nor talked our son in over a month. He cant call to talk to his son or check up on him, but he can surely call to start a fight with me.
I cant handle being anything to him anymore!
How do you all handle it?
He called me last night at 11pm, i let the phone ring cos i am sick of letting him control me!

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
Stay tough.
Take care of yourself is about the best I can say.
I was told that he would call her and do the same thing. I am just at a loss. I do want him to move on and find happiness but at the same time, i am scared for who ever he dates next!
Cause' I dont want him to cause and do the same damage to me to someone else!
sigh being and X an all you cant really give a future mate a fair warning of what they are in store for.
