I’ve come to the realisation today that my ex has emotional detachment disorder. He wouldn’t realise it at all, but he lost his dad very suddenly as a young child and his mum was very strong and put on a brave front for his entire childhood. But this meant he never grew up seeing others being emotional and so now he sees it as a sign of weakness. I have BPD so am practically the opposite, we broke up a few months ago due to this incompatibility but I still am in love with him and want him back. Has anyone else been in a situation where they have been with someone like this? I want to help him with his emotional detachment but also for him to understand my BPD. Sorry if this isn’t the best forum for it just not too sure where to post and I love my BPD friends here ❤️
