James will not be there to rescue you when your gf starts to act crazy. If you're seeing other women on the side then you can obviously get sex in a more stable environment. Your gf is disposable...it's not she has a diamond mine in her vagina.

the relationship is exclusive as far as i know . understand and thank u all for your input . the bp thing is difficult to deal with and now a ex boyfriend sending her pics on her cell , she told me and showed me the pic , just weird and uncool!

wow, dude,
actually not wow, it's a pretty common mistake.

If she wasn't bi-polar, it would be cool because then it's just your gf showing you want some guy did b/c she want you to know for whatever reason. Usually to get a little jealous so that they know if some random guy aproached them on the street, you would protect her.

Now, I know this might be hard to accept given the past history, but, that's probably all that was going on here.

Either way, if you break up because of this, it won't her fault.

I disagree with almost all of this.

Do a cost/benefits analysis. If the costs of dating her outweigh the benefits, kick her to the curb. 7 months isn't a lifetime so you can escape now without feeling like you wasted too much time and effort.

yeah, good call. My opinion on things like this is warped. But still, I contend that ripping up his birthday shirts is a much more, uh, a much better reason to break up with some one than a picture

DSTChaos is right, if you don't like her as a girlfriend break up with her, you don't have to be her personal jesus

Either dump her or stop reporting your relationship "bumps" to us.

RU OX Alum 10-13-2006 12:08 PM

the biplor disorder survival guide is the title of the book...i found it useless except the last chapter, but its mostly for people who live with those with manic deppressioin or bad type I or II

LOL!

Seriously though, you're only reporting the worst to us so naturally we're going to have a certain opinion of her and your willingness to stay with her. If you're not going to dump her then what more can we tell you other than "uh...be patient if you have that much patience in your cup and time on your hands."

I guess the jury's still out on whether her behavior is from her BP or if she's just a loser of a gf.

Either case, I personally wouldn't deal with someone with a mental disorder if they have to be medicated to treat me well and NOT bring drama into my life. :)

Stranger it gets !
 
Well after 2 months she replaced the shirts she threw away .recently she was over using my computer and signed into yahoo mess, I got a offline mess, saying " i miss you " from whom i dont know ( told her it could b ex gf). After 2 days she began asking me about the "i miss you" mess. told her i had no idea really ! After blowing my cell up for hours i turned it off , she came by the next morning early crying saying she is afraid of losing me . Told her now she knows how i felt about her getting a pic on her cell from a ex bf and she agreed . She,s a fantastic lady and i love and adore her dearly . Dont know if i can deal with these mood swings and the relationship seems to b on her time schedule . Peace

In times like this, I look to Christ.
