    Yes we think differently and feel deeper....... why would that ruin a relationship? I know lots of people with Bipolar that are in successful loving long term relationships. We deserve to be loved too and not just thrown away because we have a disorder that people don't understand.

    First, the person needs a complete medical checkup and testing for mental problems. Most things can be treated by meds, so dont give up yet.
