Ive been seeing this man for about 4 years now. He was just recently told he was bipolar. He is going through a job change and other issues that are causing him stress. He's always been so loving. I know he loves me But when he goes through a bad day and doesn't tell me he loves and basocially ignores me for a day or two I almost can't stand it.. He says we have a future together but it's hard to continue to believe that when he gets in one of the moods. I'm trying to research and read and encourage him and help myself too but what do I do. How do I deal with it? Is this normal? Should I keep believing that he does love me and hope that the meds finally are fixed where he can be more normal again? Thanks Wendy
In addition he is moving and wants me to go with him. i have a 12 yr old son and my daughter is a junior In hs. He wants to marry him. Is this something I can do? Do you think once his meds are corrected that he can go back to how he's been? Maybe it will be more manageable..?? he shuts me out all the time now and I just don't know if I can handle the depression I could face myself or the environment I'll put my family in. Help...,
Its all part of BP. If you want to be with him you will have to learn to live with it and don't kid yourself that its going to go away. When he pulls away the state of mind he is in is probably pretty awful for him and pressure won't help. It's hard...I know.
