HDhusband - yes, I think that could be my H. He has very low self esteem. His borderline traits cause him to see things very black or white - he either loves me or hates me or believes I love or hate him. He has a difficult time with confrontation and conflict. The aspect of borderline he has is fear of abandonment - so when he is feeling especially close, which I believe he was, he pushes away.

His narcissistic traits also create a struggle as the strongest of these is his sense of entitlement. So when he doesn't get what he thinks he deserves regardless of what else is happening in our lives, I pay the price.
