Question - (17 October 2007) 5 Answers - (Newest, 17 October 2007)
A female United States age 51-59, anonymous writes:

How can I help my best friend? He is dating a biploar girl with many issues. They have been fighting about him wanting some alone time, that she is always coming to him at his apartment, and he told her he love her and took it back but now he says he loves her again. I think he is not emotionally ready for a serious relationship and I think he may be stuck. They have only know each for 2 1/2 months and she told she just want to spend her moment with him and only him.

Let the two of them sort it out themselves. Why are you getting so involved? Just go abour your own life and let them get on with theirs. They wont thank you for interferring in the long run. We all make mistakes and have to sort things out, so leave them to it.

take care

I think you need to stay out of this, hun. They have just been dating 2.5 months! Of course, she wants to spend a lot of time with him and that alone time is to be respected by all of his friends, including you. You can't help him. The only way you can do this, is by backing off and staying out of it. If they are having problems allow him the space and time to work it out with her. No interferences from well meaning friends. I am sure you want to see him be the happiest he can be and you hope she and him can get through their problems and work this through. You sound like you may not like her all that much. You are a female friend...right? Do you have any 'designs' on this guy for yourself? If not, then you are stepping over the line here. He's an adult male...let him get through this with her, on his own. Back off and if it doesn't work out for them-then you be a friend, if he comes to you for support.

rcn agony auntWhen his emotions are playing with judgment, you really can't do much about it. All though you want what's best for him, sometimes what's best is to let him make his own mistakes. He should also research bi-polar and gain knowledge on coping with someone who has it.
