My boyfriend and i were together for 6 years, and recently he has had it confirmed he has bipolar disorder.
As far as i knew we were going good, however, he just left me out of the blue. The other night he told me he was leaving and within half an hour he was gone. Moved out of our flat and told me he would be back to collect his things.
He told me that he didnt know who he was, and needed space away to discover himself. "Its not you, its me ".
He says he needs to start his life again, and to do that he needs to do it alone.
We spent 6 fantastic years together and have never had any rough patches.
How can he just give up on us like that?
As he left so quickly i dont have very much info at the moment, however i know i still love him, and he says its not a problem with me, he just doesnt want any responsabilities.
If it is because of his bipolar should i try to get him back, or just let go?
I really don't know what to do.
I love him so much and he is my best friend also.
Help me i need advice.
