Things we love about our Bipolar SO

He was

passionate

incredibly creative

great imagination

very intelligent

sensitive

thoughtful

romantic

a fabulous lover

an amazing cook+taught me how to be one

talented

knew so much about everything it seems

I could talk to him and have a deep stimulating conversation about ANYTHING for hours on end.

We went to other worlds together in our heads.

We collaborated on our creative endeavors(his guitar, mine painting).

He helped me be more of a dreamer. (I'm pretty uptight)

I believed we could achieve anything together.

He tucked me into bed every night.

We had so much fun together.

I learned alot with him by opening my eye(s).

Not real! What good is ANY of it if it isn't real? If it were real, it would still be like that.

There was NO love, no caring, no passion. It was just all one big game to him - only, because of his sickness, he doesn't even know it. That's what hypomania is.

And, just think about what he's gonna do with his next "victim" - she'll get the exact same treatment - same "passion", same "love", same "depth", same "sensitivity", etc.

We want to think he was like "that" with only us, because what we shared was so "special", so "intimate", etc. But, it's not so "special" to him - it's just "what he does".

And, he'll do the EXACT SAME THING with the next one. And, the one after her.

Try to remember that.

That is not cool. I put this post up as a positive thing. If you'd like to vent, there are plenty of other posts to do that in but this is not the one. I'm asking that you delete your post unless you want me to ask the group owner to do so. I'm sorry you're hurting, have been hurt. We all have. I've read your posts and honestly feel you need some tough love and this was the last straw for me. You're feeling sorry for yourself. Grieving is a natural process but there comes a point to move on and it all comes down to choice. YOU are now making that choice for yourself to be miserable and blaming it on your ex and quite honestly saying some things that are probably pretty hurtful to the nice people on here trying to better themselves by reaching out.

There. I said it.
