Help Me Understand My Bf?
Posted: 12-29-07 20:26pm

My boyfriend who is now my ex, we broke up a week ago and it was so out of the blue
We only dated for 2months & I found out he was bipolar the second week, and at first I didn’t no what that was, until I researched it and soon I discovered out what it is, although its hard for me to understand .

I feel as though his disorder has something to do with the reason why we broke up
I mean one night he was telling me how he liked me soo much and how he was getting ready to say I love you,
Then 2weeks later he broke up with me and said he didn’t feel the same way,
A part of it was because I didnt call him enough, but also just because he wasn’t feeling me no more,
I just don’t understand how he could stop liking me so fast does it have to do with his disorder? I keep thinking that’s the main reason we broke up because his emotions are up & down. Do people who are bipolar find it hard to keep a relationship? Do you like someone on minute then not the next ..please explain this to me.

Hi, I'm sorry to hear about your situation. I'm not sure why your bf broke up with you because I'm not like that at all. However, I've had thoughts about breaking up with my bf because I didn't want him to deal with me. I know my mood swings are really difficult to handle, so I didn't want him to go through that.
