I think the gist of this is, and I'm pretty much repeating what a lot of other posters have already said, the guy is an asshole. Whether it is because he is bipolar or psychopathic or both is moot, he's still an asshole and you can't do anything about that. Leave, sooner rather than later, and don't look back.
Thank you, you understand
