Let me take the time to set the record straight though. Bp doesn't cause you to love fast, hard yet shortlived.

Even bipolar love lasts, atleast real love does. What you described is classic infatuation, love doesn't disappear over night.

I'm sorry you were treated so badly, and I know its really rough that you can't find closure.

I'm bipolar btw, and its not a free pass to treat my bf like shyt. I've loved him loooong before we even dated. In fact I've loved him since I was 15, and 15 years later I still love him all the same.
Thank you for your reply.
That is why I am here to understand him and get some sort of sense out of everything. When we first met, I felt like he really "needed" me, had to be around me. Wanted to know about my day, details and such. His appearance was all covered up. With a beanie, glasses, coat. Which none of this changed, no do I think he was taking care of himself, bathing etc. Then out of the blue, he started to wear no glasses, bright clothes, he seemed like a different person in many ways. He would stay up all night, not care about my schedule...Then I brought up a possible date with someone else because he wouldn't answer any of my more serious questions about us. He then put up a wall and acted like we were just casual and brought up the other girl. I think I maybe scared him? I don't know? Just the abrupt way he acted and to be in a relationship with this person after days of knowing eachother...maybe it won't last, I hope not. I want to hate him, yell at him. I haven't said one word or reply to him. I said I love him, he knows and he threw it away. I wondered that him being bipolar would account for this, because I feel like no respectable person would do this to someone they cared about. I just have no answers and it kills me. I am trying to move past this, but he never answered me, just ran away into someone else and its like i went crazy! I am trying to justify that we had something, that I didn't make this up in my head. He looked at me that way...the eyes don't lie. Each day I struggle to pass the time, distractions aren't enough.
