writes:Me and my boyfriend been on a break for about 3 months. The reason of the break was cuz of my bipolar. I stoped taking my pill wen I started to go out with him. And he didn't know I had bipolar. The relationship was good for the 9 month we were together. But my personality changed and I was so depressed. And everything went down. And he started not to appreciate me. Were doing a little better now but it hurts me. We still see each other every week. We still kiss. But we don't talk in the phone that much anymore. He is always buzy wit his singing career. He's in a r and b group. He tells me that he is confused cuz im a different person now. A better person. and he loves me but not in love with me. I don't know what to do. Should I wait for him, look for him or what.

 Perhaps in hindsight you should have told him at the begining. Bipolar is a difficuilt thing for any partner to deal with to begin with because it is a fluctuating condition between one emotional extreme and another when not held in check by medication.
Having it sprung on him after 9 months must have been a tad overwhelming for your boyfriend as it would be for anyone knowing you for some time without being aware that you are bipolar.
So in answer to what do you do, well obviously tell him you have bipolar disorder if you haven't done so allready. Also tell him more about the condition and what changes it causes and the frequency you get them.
Whether you can get things back together with him I couldn't say,as three months is quite a long break as you probably know. Perhps a start would be meeting him as a friend and going over the cause of the disruption to your relationship in an open and frank way.
And even if you don't get back together you might at least gain a supportive friendship with him to keep you going for your next spin on the dating circuit.

 Think you should leave it move on hun he doesnt sound a very nice man really the way he's treating you isnt nice and it seems he doesnt really care.
Move on and find someone who will respect you more as a person on the inside.
Good luck x
