I am so glad I found this blog. I am dating a wonderful, educated woman, now for 3 months. She has depression, and told me recently she is bipolar II. I have been reading up on this, ordered a book… trying to understand, and at this point, it seems pretty ominous.

When we met, she came onto me, hard. Her sex appetite is very high, which, I loved, but that was under the assumption it could be controlled. Now, it certainly looks like hypersexuality. I am concerned about risky behaviors.

We are now long distance, for a year, and while she definitely has the mood swings and sleep issues, she does not exhibit some of the behaviors in this blog (never anger, threats, seeing visions, Lucifer, etc.). Drinking though, can be an issue.

She is thoughtful, interested in what I have to say, caring, a complete 10 when in the normal range. I’d have read a great deal, and so many comments just say “ run”. She told me as much last night, while she is hurting and lonely.

Can I have a relationship with somebody like this? Can they be trusted?
