I'm bipolar 2. My emotions don't disappear at the drop of a pin. I don't act like a total jerkwad. I don't treat people disrespectfully. Those actions of his are not due to his bipolar: he is simply a jerk.

A lot of us do seem to love intensely and fairly quickly.. but in my experience and what I've read on the board... those of us with bipolar are not flighty with our emotions towards someone.

I've also beein in an intense-month-long-relationship. The pace? Set by the guy. The intensity? Set by him. The introductions into family life? Set by him. The break up? Him. He broke up with me.

Was it because I am bipolar? No. I hadn't been diagnosed and I don't have mania, just hypomania. He is just a jerk.

So.... similar situation to you, but the bipolar was on the hurt side and not the one causing pain or being intense.
