It would honestly be impossible to determine without more clarification. Are you saying that you ARE bipolar, or are you asking IF you are? What kind of interactions happen between the two of you to trigger the varying emotions?


On a side note, if he WANTED someone different he would have CHOSEN someone different. Be happy, and don't eat yourself up with those "he deserves better" thoughts - he chose you, not this hypothetical "better person," and he chose you for a reason (initiate positive self-reflection here).

I don't think that sounds like bipolar disorder at all.  That sounds more characteristic of someone with borderline personality disorder--at least if it's as drastic as you say, though you mention no other symptoms so it would be necessary for an evaluation by a psychiatrist (as it would be anyway).  That being said, if it's just you're mad at him a lot, you need to explore why you're always so angry with him and find out if there's a root cause that you two need to address.

My dad once told me that love isn't constant all the time.  it's always there, but there are always some days that you just can't stand the person you're with.
