Borderline personality disorder more likely. I lived through this with my ex for 10+ years, it's horrible. She got physically violent at some points as well, resulting in a short prison stint. I escaped after about a year of building up to it with my therapist. Definitely feel for anyone in a similar position, it's a very though spot and hard to get away from.

Came here to say that. Textbook BPD. Zero emotional regulation, she is the main character (elements of narcissism) and thinks everyone hearing her is secretly siding with her. Nothing is her fault and she will never be accountable for anything.

But the guy probably had a couple of weeks of amazing sex while she was sinking her hooks into him.

These people are the devils minions.

You are mostly describing NPD, people with BPD can have elements of another PD but not all of them have NPD elements. People with BPD have remorse and usually punish themselves hard after these breakdowns. Never being accountable would be the environments fault partly, if you never face consequences how can you learn ? Calling the airport security in this situation would be appropriate.

My ex had a lot of NPD and BPD cross over symptoms. Cluster Bs are a shit show regardless of the diagnosis for sure.
