Can they express themselves?

With the advent of Giphy clips on FB Messenger, i would regularly receive movie clips which was my exgfwBPD expressing herself. Though her consistent typos would yield the oddest returns, which naturally she wouldn't edit before hitting send. Everything harried in the moment.

So odd, she wasn't able to come up with original thoughts to save her life. And she was bright too, but her level of disorder blanked out her mind in strange ways. In the year i experimented with this relationship, i began noticing that she had a finite amount of phrases she would recycle. Many began with, "Mama always says..."

Text salads were the worst when she'd actually attempt to write out her thoughts. She sure tried(s) to communicate like other adults. in the end she cheated, I caught her, and after i split, later that night received a clip Laura Palmer from Twin Peaks: Firewalk With Me Giphy. Her goddamn role model. Anyway...

All of it just makes me fucking sad.
