You're 17 ... At 17 I had not a clue about who I wanted to date , this is prehistoric days before Internet, texting/ sexting. We all met at the skating rink or local park sneaking cigarettes. And had to talk on a phone attached to a wall in the same room as parents . LOL , you kids have it made !

Do you and your fellow have any kind of date set for meeting face to face?

As for your Bipolar ( I also have Bipolar) are you In treatment? See a Therapist? Do you have a plan for when your headed up and that's when you do impulse non thought out things, do you have enough self awareness to reach out for help before it all hits the fan.
