I was dating a guy I had met, not on Mingle, and he wanted to read about my bipolar so I gave him a book. He recognized that he is not quite right in the noggin himself and we broke up because he realized he was too messed up to be in a relationship. I am doing really well on my latest treatment. He was serious about it. It wasn't a "It's not you. It's me". He seriously recognized something was up with him.

I had started seeing red flags and you guys even pointed out some as did other people. I am glad I got out when I did but I have a kind of weird feeling of relief. That it did not go on a long time and then he realized it.

Gosh Terri, you are not having any luck at all, are you?

Terri is on a journey and one day she will find the right guy. In the meantime, she and I are gonna have lunch next Friday and talk smack about all our fellow minglers.

You gotta give him credit for admitting he has issues. That's a major step in the right direction. Hopefully he finds treatment that works for him. who knows, maybe that's why you two met, so that you could share information with him that he needed.

Everything happens for a reason.

Even if the reason is just because it could happen. :P But, I do believe everything does happen for a reason.

That's ok. I believe it enough for both of us.

I am fine with it. I think he was more emotional than me but held back. I reached out to shake his hand and said "Friends?" I had to pull my hand out of his grasp. He was still holding on.

It's best that I found out now only a month into it. I have enough problems without a guy who has them too.

is that the guy who was buying you everything?
