My husband has bipolar. We have been together for 11 years.We have been fighting ALOT! It's also bringing us alot closer. (Weird, I know!) we don't plan on leaving each other. I have really been trying to be loving and really show him! I sent him a text telling him that he was the best thing that has ever happened to me. He texts back thank you! It seems like I am constantly trying to tell him what I need from him, which is his love! We have been holding hands things are SLOWLY happening, but it seems like he really don't care about me! I hold him, he just sits there! I tell him it's nice when he Texts me to tell me goodnight(I work overnight) he hasn't.Ive voluntarily done some of his chores to show my love and he gets mad at me thinking I'm mad at him!!!! I just feel like I'm in this and trying with no support from him! I realize it may take time. Am I being selfish for wanting a husband to love me? Will he ever? Is it possible to have a loving bipolar husband or are they always selfish? I'm just so confused, I don't want to leave him but I want to get my needs met! How do I not rely on him to get my needs met without cheating? It hurts so much and I'm so confused!
