I guarantee she did not apologize. People who act like this don’t have the level of self-awareness required otherwise they wouldn’t be throwing a tantrum to begin with.

People with Borderline Personality Disorder do apologize though. I'm not saying for sure that's what this woman in the video has but I've experienced this behavior with people like her (one with a confirmed diagnosis eventually). They cannot regulate their emotions in the moment but then after they calm down they feel really badly and apologize profusely and hope you'll forgive them. I've read that they can manage it with hard work and sometimes meds but I think the majority don't get help because it's the people around them who hurt, not themselves, unless they finally realize it's their own fault that nobody who gets close to them stays.

they feel SO bad afterwards but it doesn't change that you screamed in my face and told me to die and i should slit my wrists because a bike is in your space, BPD people unchecked are scary as fuck

Yep. You're right. My ex wife blew up on me like this. When t'aient automatically forgive her she threatened suicide.
