I met the man I am dating for 5months now,who has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder around that time. We both are very much in love. Things with him happened very fast to extent he started to talk about marriage and long term plans,even introduced me to his family and friends. Now,he had two manic episodes since we have been dating. He also had mild depression in between. He started with proper medication and seeing the doctor since a month now. He recently started feeling symptoms of depression during the last two weeks when I was out of town for work. We used to talk daily and there not nothing wrong between us. We met after I came back in town and had the most amazing time ever. Then yesterday I met him again and we had a minor argument. I felt very hurt to the way he behaved. He had been verbally rude to me earlier,but I let it go. But yesterday, I confronted him saying his behavior had been hurting me and he cannot treat me like this,when I love and respect him. The moment I said this,he says I wanted to tell you something "I want time off the relationship. I can't be anyone's partner right now.' At one moment he was talking about moving in together and he loves me and the next moment he is being like this. I am devastated right now. I don't know whether he is going to come back or how much time he needs. Please help if anyone with BIPOLAR has BROKEN UP and again got back together. Thank you so much
