Seems like we've got some disagreement here, but whichever the case is - BiPolar or SPD, I think the most sound advice is to stay away.. lol

One of the most important things I learnt in life is to really be careful who you surround yourself with. It's often said and everyone heard it but you really have to praction that principle.

Yeah I have been seeing her for about 2 months now. The first month was great (great sex, great personality, very giving) really incredible. She told me about 3 weeks ago about her bi-polar and wanted to warn me she is in the process of changing medication and in her words can get "flakey" as she has tried this is the past. Everything was fine for a week but the past 2 weeks have been a roller coaster. She will ignore me for a few days but then come over and everything is phenomenal. She just broke a date and I see her updating her online dating profile so I'm just confused.

I have not changed anything I have been doing. She knows I like her by my actions and I have been a consistent challenge. I've asked her about it and she says it's the bi-polar. It's just confusing bc I never know if its her losing interest/I'm doing something wrong or it really is the bi-polar. I'm just going to back off, give her space, and hope she figures these meds out. I've been talking/going out with other women but I still find myself thinking about her. I realize bi-polar is for life so I'm getting to the point where it's probably time to let it go. Let me know what you guys think.

That just sounds like more trouble than it's worth to me dude. Unless you really get that 'this one is special' feeling with her, then I'd let it go. And even if you do, what does 'her' really mean? Because like you said, it's for life. At any given moment, 'she' could change 180 degrees from who 'she' was 5 minutes before that.
