I think I do understand that in your case it all comes from insecurity - I guess it is always the case, some just pitch it as if it was power and it can be very effective.
I would say it *IS* a BPD "thing".
Is being attracted to a controlling/jealous partner a BPD thing?

I can see how it could be. I think it goes with that whole "tumultous relationships" thing. And I was always attracted to men who were dominating, because there was a part of me that wanted to be hurt--I was getting involved with that in lieu of the "cutting." Of course that was my own personal experience.
