Even without Bipolar, there are only ever a few people in a lifetime that you can truly call friends. Like everything else, job for life, marriage for life - the concept of friends for life is something that is somewhat outdated in this fast moving disposable world.
Having bipolar makes it that much harder. But like marriage, your better off alone than with the wrong person / friends. I'm sorry that it hurts so much, I can really relate. I make new friends and at times the only thing I can think of is 'how long will this last?" Making new friends also makes me very insecure, which in turn puts its own pressures on the friendship. I guess like has been said already, you enjoy friendships while they last, and the ones that are real friends, they will understand and stick by you, bipolar or not.
