Question - (18 April 2009) 1 Answers - (Newest, 18 April 2009)
A female United States age 41-50, anonymous writes:

I am with a guy and have been for about a year. Time is coming up when we both will have to move out of our current homes. We have been thinking about getting a place together. Unfortunately, he was recently layed off and hasn't found any good leads. I am not worried about the money because he has enough saved up that it wouldn't be an issue for him, but it would be a financial benefit to both to move in together, but I also don't want to lock him into having to stay near me if he can find a job elsewhere because I've been wavering on this decision (and he has too).

Here is the problem. I've been feeling rather bored with him lately and have never felt he was "the one". From the beginnig I have been happy, but never estatic. In the past I feel I had intense highs and lows in my relationships and in my life. Since I've met him things have been solidly good, but never great. I know it sounds like maybe its not right and I should leave, but I have battled serious bouts of depression in the past, but none since we met. Is it better for people who are borderline bipolar to remain in a relationship that is just steady but not fantastic? I know he is a great guy who really cares about me and would always be there for me, but I don't have the butterflies in my stomach the way I have for others in the past. Again I stress though, that I also haven't felt very upset since we've met either.

ArmyMedic agony auntThe best thing for someone who is bi-polar is someone who loves them and makes sure they seek professional help, Bi-polar disorder is treatable in many cases, yes it will be long term meds and counselling sessions, but with some one to love and support it can be dealt with.
