Or just bipolar in general. My ears are actually ringing from my girlfriends bipolar outbursts. Dealing with the person is a real challenge. They're not rational and go ballistic. It's the ultimate drain. I'm not the type of person to leave someone and she has a child Last summer, I actually had to close the windows because they're uncontrollable. After I saw my young parents die, I thought that I dealt with it all. I had a girlfriend for 10 years and this girlfriend I've been with for 2 years. Please beware of what you're getting into when you meet someone on a dating site

Any bipolar stories are welcome.

My ex-wife was bi-polar. We were together 8 years, she passed away 5 years ago. We didn't meet on any dating site. It is difficult, she spent a lot of time in hospitals getting her meds adjusted so her body chemicals were right and as someone said the sex was absolutely crazy if she went a bit manic.
She loved me, she didn't want to hurt me, but if her chemicals became a bit unbalanced she couldn't control it and she was always sorry afterward. Understanding is very important, when she picks a fight ( if you care about her.) Step back, don't go ballistic too go for a walk. She will calm down and realize what she has done. Make-up sex is good too.
Patience is the key I guess to being with a bi-polar woman, but they can be as wonderful as any other woman, maybe better. They are loving and caring and they are not psycho like some chicks I have met since then.
