Thank you for sharing this information. I was the FP of a borderline friend that I had to let go of. She would buy all the same things that I owned, smother me with texts and phone calls, and seemed to not have very much respect for my boundaries when I wanted space. Eventually it became so suffocating that I had to completely cut her off. I never told her that I thought she was sick because I did not want to judge or hurt her feelings. I know that she was taking antidepressant medication for the last 20 years, but it doesn’t seem like her mental state was ever improving. Anyway I had to let go of that friendship because it was just too much for me to handle. In fact, that is not the first time I was a borderline friend’s FP. I don’t know why I attracted people like this, but I really hope it never happens to me again.

I think it's also important to precise that to be a FP it's fantastic but very temporary : when the FP receiving all this love-bombing begins very attached to the borderline, the borderline will reject him，pushing on and away, then discard him for another FP. It's very painful to be an FP... And it's rather impossible to communicate about that with the borderline partner. It's a shame because borderline people are usually very nice people, nicest people I had ever knew.

I believe I was my ex wife’s favorite person. But ever since I kicked her out she’s been trying to destroy me any and everywhere. She tried to come back multiple times and I rejected her and she tried to destroy my life again with false allegations to the police and everything:

Can an FP convince an untreated borderline to go to therapy?
