I begged my ex not to date me. He thought he could save me. After three years, we were both killing each other. I suppose it was sweet that he tried for so long, but now I'm scared if he couldn't deal with me then nobody will. I'm seeing a new guy that is much more patient. He has a great way of bringing me back to reality, and I am trying harder than ever to stay rational. He yelled at me for the first time this past weekend and was really shaken up about it. My advice is to let them see how hard you are trying and surely he/she will cut you some slack when things get heated. That's my plan. Keep ya posted...

Also, when I'm manic, I try to stay away. Or run to someone (usually anyone) that I feel less commitment to. There is a mad sexy dude down the street that helps me release energy when needed. hehehhe. Not sure that is healthy advice but that's my other strategy
