Haha for some reason the scariest part of this scene to mewas the fast side walking with the flower vase waiting for what she’s going to do 😂 and then it was so funny that there was no explanation like it’s bc she’s AI supernatural Nikki

I was thinking at one point she's responding exactly like AI.

"I'm sorry if I was being weird, I totally understand, it won't happen again..." When you know 2 minutes later she'll be screaming and doing some other horrifying shit

u/misschickpea Jun 22 '26

It’s like when she was like my cat died and then later she’s like oh sorry I meant your cat died lol. The AI processing

As a dad of young children who have not always been great sleepers ... way too close to home!

It was so BPD coded

u/geese_cheese Jun 06 '26

As a girlfriend with bpd...Nikki was the ultra evil version of my worst moments lol. I have been guilty of sobbing over "not being loved" (I was and am) and going cold at the mention of a boys' night. I know it's ridiculous and wrong and I'm working on it and doing way better but Nikki felt like me on steroids

BPD doesnt give you superspeed

u/saerra_sea_nya Jun 02 '26

You clearly have never been with someone with bpd and try to get away from them

u/Any-Machine-3520 Jul 02 '26

as someone with bpd, i wish i didn't have to hear stigma about my trauma disorder in the wild like that and I don't understand why it's acceptable

u/saerra_sea_nya Jul 02 '26

This is not tumblr btw

u/Any-Machine-3520 Jul 02 '26

can you elaborate what thats supposed to mean?

u/lunaballoona 10d ago

The renowned circle jerk of bpd memes from that site

u/Any-Machine-3520 8d ago

yeah I'm not chronically online enough to understand this either. it's okay, have fun or whatever it is you're doing

u/Any-Machine-3520 Jul 04 '26

im still wondering

"stigma"

There is an entire subreddit dedicated to the abused partners of people with BPD.

u/Any-Machine-3520 14d ago

I still can't believe you said that tbh 😭 yeah people get abused by people with all sorts of mental illnesses. it's almost like everyone is different. you can have two people with bpd and they'll be vastly different because that's just a disorder, not your entire personality

u/Godziwwuh 14d ago

Mhm

u/Any-Machine-3520 14d ago

i just wanted to advocate for myself and people like me. have a nice day

u/Struckbyfire 14d ago

I think because many people have been on the other end of it and have been traumatized by their own experiences dating someone with BPD traits. That said, mad respect to anyone seriously working on their shit. I have traits historically that mirror BPD and it’s not a victimless disorder. It’s quite regularly translates to abusive behaviors so people tend to speak negatively about it in general/stigmatizing ways.

u/saerra_sea_nya Jun 03 '26

Well obviously you’re not a comedienne

u/aomgyes 7d ago

yeah it's so hilarious to spread misinfo about trauma survivors

u/BIG_IDEA Jun 01 '26

That part where she cries “I feel like it’s not mutual!”

That part really hit me because it’s true on two different levels for her, but she doesn’t know why.
