I failed to mention, that this 37 year old, very well educated, "totally seems to have it 100% together" kind of man is BI-POLAR...

Could this be the reason for his, i want a relationship, i dont want a relationship rollercoaster? He has been medicated since childhood and leads a very normal life, treats himself great, eats healthy, works out, takes good care of himself physically, but maybe its not me, maybe in his head he is so confused too! My therapist told me long time ago...."He's bi-polar? run as fast as you can, and never look back" but he is so normal to me, anyone out there have an opinion about him? Could he be so wishy/washy because he is NOT mentally capable?

It's possible...my c'phobic ex (who I was with for four years also and even lived with for 3) is bi-polar and I don't doubt that has something to do with his having issues with commitment (which he STILL has, 9 years later, but thank goodness he is not my problem anymore ;-)).

Thank you Sheri for your 2cents, haha

I have been told over and over by various doctors, various websites, and the EX himself that a bipolar person cannot hold down a real relationship because they have such issues within thier own selves... I find that strange I guess, at this point I am just looking for answer as to why can he let something so perfect go!! I'm miserable, and did exactly the same thing I did on day one two weeks ago, I just got out of bed again.

NO SEX WITH THE EX LADIES!!

Thanx again!
