Virgo man, Virgo woman, New relationship...HELP!!!
Protect your mind, do not allow him to invade your thoughts with his stuff. He'll say you're needy or point out flaws possibly but don't own it. You have flaws but your flaws should not be an excuse as to why he's not available.
Bipolar people have a way of seeping into a persons soul and sometimes scarring a person for life, yes it's extreme statement but it's also a truth.
Bipolar men have all kinds of defense mechanisms to avoid intimacy b/c what they seek is conflict, create conflict which is connected to his mental instability.
The biggest most important thing you can do for YOU is learn about how this disease can affect you and how to protect yourself from his highs and lows. It's really important that you educate yourself or you'll learn the hard way by default.
I personally would say get out now but some women are attracted to mystery and danger but whatever you do be careful, don't own his observations unless it's true. Beware of gaslighting behavior, crazymaking behavior.
These kind of relationships don't typically end well. The good part is he's medicated (hopefully he's being honest about that). The bad part is everything is revolved around him and his mental illness.
He did this because he's mentally ill, he said that because he's mentally ill, no accountability b/c he's mentally ill, it gets old real fast b/c the woman, the mentally healthy person in the dynamic gets lost in the other person as to where she doesn't exist and only exist to revolve herself around him and his Bipolar disease.
You can date him but just know what you're getting into first...
