I met my husband 37 years ago on a blind date and we've been married for 34 years. I wasn't diagnosed until six years ago, bipolar and BPD, but symptoms were definitely there all throughout our marriage. He has stuck with me through all the ups and downs - marriage is solid and love/friendship is strong. I was 21 when we met - hadn't dated much up til that time. So guess it was just meant to be. One of those freaky things that happen. We actually grew up within five miles of each other.

So don't give up hope - someone special is out there for you. Stay involved with life the best way you can. I also met my bf who is now like the sister I never had when I was inpatient in a psych unit, so go figure. The people that are meant to be in our lives are out there somewhere - but I know, it's hard to wait when we're lonely
