I have Bipolar Disorder and it was partially responsible for getting dumped last week. I think medication had more to do with it. Lamictal fully cured my depression (the only med ever to do so) but did nothing for manic episodes. It also leaves me emotionally flat. I loved my ex-BF but not in the "need to be with every minute" way. It had no sexual performance side effect but I lost all interest in having sex. I think my ex-BF went looking for a hookup but found somebody else, which completely blindsided me.
Funny, the last few days I was trying to remember what defines real romantic love -- I certainly never felt the need to have my ex-BF around all the time.
Do you have any Borderline traits?
