Jess20 Posted May 20, 2006 Posted May 20, 2006 Ok I know how cliched and dumb this is gonna sound, but I am going crazy. My boyfriend and I have been together since we were 15, almost six years. He is bipolar and has a lot of problems communicating his feelings to me. He doesn't tell me things because he either thinks I won't understand, or he just can't bring himself to show feelings to me. I don't know how to make him understand that I am the person most likely to understand how he feels, or to at least try. I wish he would tell me more often how he was feeling because I have a hard time reading his moods. What should I do?
MissTiss Posted May 22, 2006 Posted May 22, 2006 It is gonna take patience. Don't push. My Boyfriend recently moved out after telling me that he couldn't talk to me (something I actually require in a relationship). When I don't push, he is more open... You may want to read book on bi-polar disorders as well. They may hope. I do want to say that I am proud of you for loving him through his illness. He is lucky to have you.
