It can be painful to accept but it might be better, in terms of meeting your own needs, to move on. Long distance relationships are hard. New relationships with a depressed person are hard. Not communicating is hard on any relationship.

It might be easier on your ego to assume he has withdrawn because of bipolar but the truth may be that he has lost interest.
I completely understand what you are saying, it makes sense. I was thinking about asking him what he wants from me. But, I was kind of afraid to because I figure maybe he is just going through a really rough time, I don't want to make it worse by putting any kind of stress on him, I guess. Would anyone have any input on this? Maybe there is a way that I can word it so that it doesn't see.. offensive? haha
