Hi

I have always remained single, dated alot but never found anyone I wanted to be with and the ones I wanted didn't want me. My family and friends say that I push guys away and I will end up alone if I continue to do this.

So I decided to change my dating style and I have met a sweet kind guy. I feel he is needy because he always wants to chat, wants me to spend all my free time with him, calls me everyday. It's as if I am the main focus of his life. I like my alone time and am used to doing things on my own. So it's a huge adjustment.

I am told that's normal to want to spend every waking minute with someone. Being bipolar and on alot of medication, I have no desire for intimacy . And rarely do I have any needs or desires and this has been an issue in the past.

I don't want to be alone my whole life.

My question is as a bipolar sufferer, it feels as if I am unable to make a relationship work, is it just me or do others have similar issues.
