This whole situation is absurd. So basically. I have a friend with BPD and likely some other cluster B disorder and we became friends and I was their FP. Me being their FP means they gave me lots of attention and I really enjoyed it.
But nowadays I’m not really their FP anymore. I am genuinely a close friend of theirs. But they have a problem with avoiding those they genuinely care about. So it’s led to me feeling unwanted or abandoned and like I NEED to be their FP again even though me not being their FP is a good thing- it’s a sign they genuinely like and care for me MORE because the FP attachment is inherently shallow. But now we rarely talk and I’m so sad I wanna talk to them more come back care about me again please
(They literally do care about me a lot) anyway AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA send help this is genuinely destroying me

The irony of wanting to go back to something less genuine just because it felt good is so real. It's like your brain got hooked on the intensity. It's tough when someone you care about pulls away, even if you understand why. Your feelings are totally valid, even if the situation is good on paper.

Dude, that's a mindfuck and a half. You're literally sad because things are healthier now, but your feelings haven't caught up. That feeling of being unwanted is a b****, even when you know it's not true. Sending virtual hugs – that 'need' feeling is so hard to shake.

Have you tried talking to them about this? I can see how this can tear you up inside :(
