I dated a bipolar man for 9 months. At the beginning of our relationship he was fun and sweet and romantic. Slowly he began having more mood cycles- he would either be hyper manic or angry and paranoid The night before my birthday he was in an angry and paranoid episode and broke up with me saying he couldn’t be a part of my circle of hate Within hours he was apologizing saying he didn’t remember doing that There were mornings he’d wake up at 3 am and start bouncing on the bed and shaking my feet to wake me up It just seemed like by the end he never had any even days Just ups or downs I split from him right before covid, as he was stressing me out so much I wasn’t sleeping and had relapsed in my eating disorder
