A female Australia, anonymous writes:

I am so confused. Been with b/f 5 years and they've been rocky years. He's short tempered and impatient and it causes us to have alot of fights, but he is aware that his personality is very intense, and he does apologize and he's good at doing a really,sweet, heart felt apology. I just feel a little exhausted from the extreme highs and lows that seem to ebb through our existence together. I no longer know what "normal" is and what other couples go through in life so I don't know what's acceptable. He makes me so furious sometimes I can't imagine a future with him, even though he says he wants us to get married pretty soon. On the other hand, when he apologizes, he do forgive him and then I can't imagine my life without him! It's so confusing, the constant ups and downs. Is this what every couple goes through? It seems so extreme. Or maybe I've just never been involved with a truly passionate individual before.

I'm not in a relationship but you sound like my dad and mom. my dad's mood were so hot and cold ALL THE TIME. my mom hated it and always threatened divorce for many, many years. eventually, something happened within them that changed because now they get along great and are closer than ever. I'd assume he's taking meds to help his moods, so my advice is to stick to it & see if he needs any help if you really love him. because my parents have been married for 20 strong years now & I feel they've dealt with the worst before they could be the best they can with each other.
