Trusting is hard in relationships, especially if you've been burned before. As for him "deserving" someone easier, if he wanted someone "easier to deal with" then he would have chosen someone else. He chose YOU. Moods and all. Don't ever forget that.

It's been a looong time since I was last beginning a romantic relationship (25 years ) - but I do know that getting communication off on the right foot can make or break any relationship. You may have been feeling alright the other day, but you're not now, and he needs to know that. Having an open dialogue is very important. It helps you build trust and will help him feel closer to you if he can know what's going on rather than trying to guess if you're acting differently.

While I'm not offended by any means, it does sadden me when I hear about people thinking that because we're bipolar or have another form of illness, that we're unworthy of love. That is soooo untrue. Granted, there are some periods of our lives that can be quite difficult - but that can happen in any long term relationship. A healthy relationship takes the good with the bad, reveling in the good times and holding on tight in the bad times. Give this relationship - and him - a chance. You may very well be surprised.
