See, so it's something for you to think about... Honestly, I think it will just keep happening. You mentioned that the other guy is a commitment phobe, but can you see a future with him? Do you love him?

I've also been with my DH 8 years (married 6) and I've watched his depression get progressively worse throughout the course of our relationship. I suspect that he went 'manic' back in April and that he may actually be BP, but he has never been diagnosed with this. Fallout soon started and everything went down hill from there. We're now unfortunately looking to divorce and sell our house. :-( But after the hell I've been through these past almost 4 months, I know I never want to go through this again. Even if my DH somehow got clarity like your ex did, it would be very difficult for me to start over with him again.

Since this is your second time going through it, try and think about what's best for yourself in the long run.
