If I didn't have someone forcing, encouraging and monitoring me eating, I would be dead. You cannot keep saying 'He doesn't know what it is like.' Sure, it is difficult to understand our thoughts during active disorder but you cannot continue this way. You either reach out for professional help or you realise that you must eat.
EDs are nightmares. I despise it. I despise the person I was in active disorder more.
Please look up BPD (Borderline Personality Disorder). These behaviours are not normal and nor should you/she normalise them. She is behaving toxic and manipulative. I would absolutely suggest breaking up with her but also know that it isn't an easy option. What she does need is therapy and she needs to be proactively looking to do this not sticking her head in the sand. If it is BPD with a good amount of DBT and maybe medication she can present neuro-typical and use her wise mind when she is having these episodes. She is 18 there is everyone chance she can live a normal life by taking responsibility for her behaviour and mental health.
However the way she is with you at the moment is abusive, let that sink it – she is abusing you and that is not acceptable and no her mental health condition is not an excuse, a reason yes but not absolution. While I have sympathy for the emotions that are driving her to this I do not excuse it and would tell anyone in this relationship to get out before it becomes worse. If she is not willing to take responsibility for her actions and mental health then she Will escalate and you will be the target.
Sorry to be so harsh I suppose but I tell you this will worsen unless she sorts it… source I have BPD.

as someone who has been manipulated by suicide threats please dont try and pin that as what i did. I was not faking it or doing it for attention. i just wanted support from the person i loved most.
Wow, that is a huge blow to the self-esteem. I'm sorry that he said that there really is no excuse. He can say he was drunk but that means deep down he's thinking that and he wants that you know?
