U r great lady! Ur heart pounds in with enormous love for him. I appreciate it so much that I find no language to phrase it. There is lot of charm and pleasure one can find loving a dear one and getting hurt by him. Have patience, I hope a time will come when u'll find every thing has become alright. I can only pray for u. Good luck.

Would your husband at least agree to reading on line about the symptoms and treatments available to people with a bipolar condition? Would he go with you to a doctor's visit to perhaps better understand? I can't quite grasp what the past affair has to do with your being bipolar. Being bipolar, doesn't make you totally irrational, especially since you are properly taking medication. Many people who suffer this mental illness have above average intelligence and are very creative. You can make a calculated decision whether or not you can deal with his past affair. Either you put it in perspective and make a future or you will end this relationship. You know; now it's either grow or go. Just a last thought: There are so many new meds available for treatment; be sure your doctor is aware if your episodes are too severe, manic or otherwise. I'm sure this has taken a toll on his emotions, too. The best I can offer is the online reading, a good book, or some joint counseling.

I don't think you can explain it to him if he won't listen. I would think that if he loves you he would want to help you with this. Talk to a counselor or your doctor about this problem because it is upsetting you.
