I met a woman a few weeks ago and we decided to start dating all seemed well,but then she told me that she was bi polar then told me she tried to kill herself 3 times and then told me that she was puking up all the food she would eat when we went out.I feel really bad about breaking things off but you can only do so much for some one,if they do not want to change you really can't help them.I feel horrible but it seems some people are doomed to a life of mental illness and nothing seems to help them.

With all the advances in medicine and technology we still can not help those with serious mental illness.I told her I hope she gets the help she needs but I have 2 daughters to think of too.

what if she killed herself cuz you told her you think its a good idea to see other people yea, um i'd hit it and quit it bro, thats just me. lots of crazy women out there not worth your time


....to answer your question i have never had this happen, im very respectful and chivalrous to women i just had a really bad (understatement) experience with this one crazy byatch so i dont take too fondly to nut jobs, i dont know what your looking for but im sure theres better out there, and no i wanst being serious about her killing herself, although if she did it with a milsurp that would be a plus

That woman, unfortunately is a powder keg....walk away! In my senior year of HS I dated a girl whom, unbeknownst to me had been sexually abused by her grandfather.... . She was not as forthcoming as the woman from your recent dating experience for obvious reasons. I knew then I was not equipped to help this girl or help her deal with the issues she had....Everybody has their own stuff to deal with, but some, more than others. Of course anyone with a conscience would feel guilty about breaking things off abruptly.

I have 3 kids so I totally understand your need to be cautious. I work in an office environment, work downtown and ride the commuter train... so there are tons of opportunities to meet women. Though with children, dating can be complicated. My wife and I kept our dating separate from my kids (from a previous marriage) for a year prior to introducing her to them. If you have your children full time, things can be even more difficult. My 2 cents, you gotta get out and create your own opportunities! good luck

Something similar many years ago. Its a hell of a ride. Get off at the first opportunity. Don't go back.

Wow! Estrogen causes the fairer sex to act strangely at times, but this is something I've not experienced and something that I would choose to avoid.

I was dating an absolutely beautiful woman this last year that turned out to be bipolar... and she didn't like to take her meds. When she was on her high point, she was wonderful. I couldn't get enough of her. But when she was low, it was the pit of despair. There was nothing that I could do to get her out of it. I really liked her, but as time went on I found myself cringing when I called her on the phone. I didn't realize it at first, but I was literaly scrunching up my shoulders and neck muscles as I dialed. Which one was going to answer? High or low? I kept hoping for high, but often low would pick up the phone. Damn! I realized that I couldn't keep going on like this. I too felt like a complete arse for breaking up, but I knew that long term I wasn't going to be happy. You are not alone my friend. I still think about her...

she's nuts now and every day she'll get nuttier and nuttier and your on an emotional rollercoaster with her the whole time. pull the ejection handle and punch out. My first(!) ex-wife was bi9-polar before it was popular and would go from laughing to crying to fighting mad, all three, literally in the span of about 30 seconds it would seem. Daily. She's now high-functioning it seems, found a man to support her so she doesn't work (she went through 4 jobs in three weeks once when she was mine). I could go on but I'll stop...resist the urge to take care of her and get the F out, and be decisive about it. Sever and RUN.

Ya her mom told me that she has excepted the early death of her daughter.It is sad when your mom gives up on you.They are waiting on the call in the middle of the night that there daughter has done some thing to herself.I feel like I am on Days of our lives lol.

My daughter says I am a nut magnet lol. I am glad I am not the only one who has been through it.

I met a gorgeous (20 year younger) German girl while on a work assignment in Munich. Love at first sight. Took her to the States, got married, and five years later found out that she's bipolar. Four years of treatments, bad marriage, and nine years after the wedding, she left for Germany. Thank God.
Bipolar women are FUN (when they are in the manageable manic faze), and a nightmare when they are on the depressive side.
Don't look back. Run!!!

No matter how good your intentions, you can't fix crazy.

LMAO at the pic

I have a BIL that is bipolar, discovered only after he and my sister had 3 kids. But he is seriously a good guy, and he and my sister manage the heck out of it, they are doing GREAT. It can be done.

But I would never walk into the middle of something like that.
