You make excuses about every aspect of her relationships with you and her husband; I have to wonder what is so great about this woman? I see no positive aspects other than sex?
You have to ask yourself is what you're feeling lust or love? __________________ Bipolar 1, PTSD, anorexia, panic disorder, ADHD Seroquel, Cymbalta, propanolol, buspirone, Trazodone, gabapentin, lamotrigine, hydroxyzine, There's a crack in everything.

The most fulfilling part of our relationship is those times when we are laying close to each other having long conversations a few inches from each other, or sitting on the couch sharing chocolate and talking for hours. My theory has always been that sex is great, but there are 24 hours in a day. What about the other 23? We strongly feel that the other 23 will be pretty awesome as well. We've discussed our roles. The mundane, the ordinary. paying bills, cleaning, cooking, weekends, new jobs, retirement, handling episodes, boredom, the whole enchilada. We seem to be in complete agreement on 99% of life together. |

She's using bipolar as an excuse. Is she stable right now? If she's stable right now I'm sorry, but we can't help you. At least, I can't help you. I don't know how to cure crippling fear of change and don't have advice regarding that. __________________ The darkest of nights is followed by the brightest of days. 😊 - anonymous The night belongs to you. 🌙- sleep token "I'm scared.

I just think it's disgusting someone would marry someone just for their money and then cheat behind their back because they're thirty years their senior and their d*ck doesn't work. I mean, how greedy do you have to be? And then to blame your affair and not wanting to change on your bipolar diagnosis?
😡 😡 😡 Just saying. I'm sorry. __________________ The darkest of nights is followed by the brightest of days. 😊 - anonymous The night belongs to you. 🌙- sleep token "I'm scared. I'm old. I want to go home!" 😁 - anonymous |

She is stable on meds right now. I feel terrible that I can't help her overcome her fear. I guess this is something she has to do on her own. Sad face. |

You previously said she’s unable to handle day to day tasks independently and is fully dependent on others for basic day to day living. This is extreme case for a 50 year old woman regardless of her disorders.
What’s the chance that all of a sudden she’ll get a job and start contributing if she can’t even handle regular daily living. I think you need to prepare yourself to what is to come. You are approaching retirement age and you are taking on a dependent adult now whom you barely know. Of course that’s all a moot point as she’s married, but just hypothetical. But if she leaves, and moves in with you…You might have to work all into old age as you’ll have to support her now. |
