SmartDude Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 So I met this woman. First couple times with her I was thinking she was nice. When I tried to feel it out, observing my feelings about her as a person, the answer was "nothing special". Months later I hang out with her again and I am screwed big time! I have a giant crush on her, can't stop thinking of her...etc. She revealed that she has a heroin addiction that is being treated with methadone, is bi-polar and has been hospitalized 6 times. We are not exactly in the same age group either(age 25 me 40). The fact that she revealed all that to me has not changed how I feel. So what the f#@$ is wrong with me? I will admit that I do enjoy the semi-phsyco women. I was in a long term relationship with a lady suffering from borderline personality disorder. You would have thought I had learned my lesson lol. But really, people with mental illness are not that bad all the time as long as they don't hate people in general. They are people with feelings too. The sex can be fantastic(big problem), and there are tender moments that I honestly believe can not be experienced with 2 totally happy well adjusted people who make their lives even better within a relationship(aka married boring people with great lives). Before you totally flame me remember that my screen name is SmartDude and that this is my first post. So...if I need to take it from the behind, please be gentle. thanks.

Confusedguy81 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 I'm bipolar. According to my ex, it was like she was dating two people at once when she was with me. One she loved. The other she hated. In short, dating someone with a mental disorder is tough business but we are ultimately loving and creative people. Link to post Share on other sites
