Bipolar Gf Broke It Off
Posted: 10-30-06 22:34pm

My gf of over a year just pushed me away and broke things off because she didnt feel "in love" all the sudden. I was willing to be there through the ups and downs and through it all. Now she only wants to be best friends and I dont want to loose her but its hard when im still in love with her. This break up came out of no where in a week. We were talking about our wedding the week before...Then boom!
To her it makes sense in her head to end it and not even try another solution. But to me it doesnt we were suppose to be in it to the end..Through the good and bad times....In sickness and in health but she just up and ended it when it didnt feel right to her anymore. She says that this was not a bipolar decision. But when you say you love someone and you want to marry them you dont just break it off for no reason and not even try to mend it. Then to want me to be her best friends and never ever leave her. She says she will never loose me but I just lost the love of my life.

I think it might be a bipolar thing but I dont have any proof. She told me early on that bipolar would just keep hurting me when we had a similar situation but we didnt break up. She says this time isnt not bipolar. She cant understand why she doesnt feel any thing anymore she says its not me. She was happy with me and has nothing bad to say about the relationship. So why did it just abrubptly end? I am so lost and confused. What do I do? Hold my feelings in for her. Shut them off? Will this last? Will she feel she loves me again next month? I am trying to be there as a friend and let her know I am never going to leave. But its really hard to stay and be friends when your heart is broken so badly and your still in love.

Help please...I cant stop crying...I dont want to loose her.

This might sound a bit harsh, but maybe she's right. Maybe the end of the relationship wasn't about the bipolar. Maybe, though, especially towards the end, the "love" was a result of the bipolar. I don't believe that someone can just fall out of love with someone in an instant. It takes time. Maybe she wasn't feeling this true love for a long time and couldn't face it because of her bipolar. It's a hard thing to deal with. Maybe she is finally experiencing some clarity and is facing her true feelings. I know that sucks a lot for you, but unfortunately it's reality. Bipolar is very tricky and it can go many ways, especailly when love is involved. Try to be positive and know that you're a tough cookie. I (along with many others here) are always willing to chat iether here or via Private Message. I'm sending you my best!

You will find another love...I promise you, one that will love you always and maybe if your X is bipolar and going to be all over the place and break your heart over and over ...well, maybe its all 4 the best...

I agree with the sentiments expressed here. One thing I always try to live by, is that there is someone for everyone. It has taken me so far dating four guys, but things are looking really good for my current boyfriend and I.

It is all about just getting back up on your feet and finding someone new... or having that person find you.
