I agree, but it IS broke. I'm lonely. I've studied the heck out of bipolar, maybe I should seek out a bipolar woman. I certainly know enough be be of some help!

I don't like how she's using her bipolar diagnosis as an excuse for her actions. 🙄

What I'm thinking is that if she truly wants to be with you the rest of her life, it should be a no-brainer on her part - get the divorce and move in & marry you. I agree she is using her bipolar as an excuse and meanwhile you're spinning your wheels.

You sound like a great person, and there are other fish in the sea.

I've sent her your well thought out personal message, and she accused me of attacking her and sharing details about her life that she didn't want revealed.

She also said I didn't mention my own faults, which are numerous. To be fair and balanced, early on in our relationship, I drank (not to excess) and I quit, out of respect for her past self-medicating. I smoked cigars, and stopped.

I also had a habit of sometimes losing my temper, which I have 100% succeeded in correcting. She gave me a list of 8 things wrong with me last valentine's day, which I've mostly corrected, except for my tendency to be too blunt, which I have not been able to correct.

I am by no means a saint, but I've done my best to correct my faults.

She is currently encouraging me to leave her and move on, but, as she is the only woman I have ever truly loved in 64 years, I find this impossible.

Now she's gaslighting you?

She's the one who's cheating on her husband.

She has no interest in moving in with you. You are a toy she amuses herself with. It’s time to drop her and move on.

She's a good woman. I've been accused (rightly) of being a man-*****, and I've know a lot of women. She's been honest with me, but she's bipolar and has high anxiety.

She just needs help with crippling fear of change. If anyone reading this knows how to defeat this fear in a bipolar person, please chime in. If she beats this fear she will have a happy life.

I guess certain words are censored here. The word that was censored refers to a man that is sort of a male prostitute of sorts.

There is nothing about her that suggests she’s bipolar. Bipolar is not the crippling fear of change it is a mood disorder.

To quote Spock; Having is not so pleasing a thing, after all as wanting. She has a husband and security but she wants more. She plays with you.

I understands that you are lonely. But your solution to end loneliness by pursuing married women isn’t productive. To cure loneliness you might want to look for single women, not other men’s wives.

You can’t control what other people do or don’t do. You can only control yourself and your actions.

Also you need to understand that most cheaters don’t leave their spouses. You waste your time.
She doesn’t need help. She cheats on her husband. She might need help of a lawyer if she wants divorce but she likely doesn’t want that or she’d be long divorced

Look for single women

No it’s not impossible. There’s no way you “must” go for a married woman. No such thing
