I'm young, own a successful business, no kids, confidant, no debt.
So - first you have to ask yourself, why would you WANT an unmedicated bipolar who cheats and lies???
What is it in YOU that you don't think you're worth a whole heck of a lot more than that??? Think long and hard on this question - it's an important one.
Second - if you ever plan on having kids, do you really think someone like him is a good choice for their father? No, of course you don't.
Some practical things to do:
- Cut out the frequent contact with him. It's keeping you sucked in. Go dark for a while.
- Make a big goal to work towards - something fun that will require some energy and focus. When my marriage was first in trouble, I trained for and climbed Mt. Whitney. When we separated, I bought a drum kit and learned how to play the drums in a rock band.
- Work on develooping a busy social life - the more you get out having fun with other people, the less time you'll have to moon over your ex.
