landskaperdan - that helps tremendously, thank you so much for your input.
We have spoken numerous times today and text each other. This has come as a big surprise to me, as the text I received this morning said that she was not going to contact me for while as she's not sure what she wants right now and needs to sort her head out. There is a fair age gap between us, I thought I ought to mention that. To some, that will make a big difference and to others reading this, it won't, I guess?
She is in her 20s, me in my 30s.
The last conversation we had, about an hour ago - she said she felt 'weird', she was laughing a lot about everything, everything was a joke, talking quite incessantly about lots of different things, I was finding it hard to keep up to be honest. Her voice was much louder and more brash. I asked her how she was gonna be at work tomorrow if she was feeling manic? She said it would be interesting. She's been talking about sex a lot - but not really in a nice way..ive found it really a bit scary, telling me that she would have sex with the Queen! Tellling me she has a massive sex drive, that when she needs to have sex she literally will. Ok, now I know she does have a sense of humour, because this is what drew me to her initially...but it seems to have turned into something else now. But like you said, I can't really take her seriously when she's on a manic high? She keeps asking me to ring her, telling me to go and see her, telling me that she's the most important person right now and I should be putting her before everything else...even though I'm desperately trying to pack up my flat ready to move. But on the other hand telling me she needs to NOT contact me. Its so confusing and I don't know if any of the things Im doing are right here. I guess Im just going to have to go with my intuition? She's in my head a lot...pretty much all day at the moment.

So i think another question id like to ask, if its okay, i don't want anything I say to sound wrong or patronising..so please do forgive me if it comes across like that - its really not intentional.
So, I mean I have been in a 'casual' relationship with a woman 6 months back, who also has bi polar. She too told me she wasn't feeling well at the time. She was incredibly affectionate, made me feel really important to her and it was so nice. But then, suddenly she begun to tell me about all the sexual experiences she was also having with others....well, obviously it threw me. I felt so low about it. She then told me she was feeling manic. We stopped seeing each other on the basis that I could not sleep with her knowing that the next day she would be with someone else - it made me feel awful. Im worried this is happening with the girl I'm seeing right now. I want to ask, Ive heard that promiscuity is quite a prominent feature of bi polar disorder - am I right? And if I am, how do you deal with it, having bi-polar and the effect it has on relationships?

I hope its okay to ask that, and I'm not suggesting every one who has bi-polar does this, but i feel that 2 people I have met in 6months both have b-polar and this seems to be a common theme..
