Met a girl with Bipolar, went bad

I met a girl from bumble and we went on 3 dates. Everything was going well, we had long talks about what we wanted from a partner in a relationship and what we think we did wrong in our past relationships.


I texted her yesterday asking if she'd ever pick me up and drive me in her car on days when I'm tired since I drive all day for work. After I said that I said "Cuz trauma lmfaooo" in which I was referring to me driving my brother all around and being the "3rd parent". She took that as me referring to me being my ex girlfriends Uber and she then went off on me about how I compare her, and am "testing" her.


She went to sleep and texted me in theoring that she didn't want me to think she was giving me the silent treatment, since I told her I don't like it when my ex did that to me.


And basically she went to therapy today, came out of it, and told me she didn't wanna see me anymore and that she didn't like the way I made her feel by being super blunt whenever she talks to me. She had also said she used to be very blunt and she realizes she is sorry for being blunt to her friends because she says she doesn't like how it feels.


I feel this got blown out of proportion when I wasn't even referring to my ex gf originally, but my brother, and she took that and went off in 10 different directions.


She said she was also mad that I didn't know why she was mad, and that I couldn't see her Pov even though she explained it 5 times to me.


I asked her if she was this upset because of the bipolar because I had no other idea what it could have been, which of course, led to her calling me a A-hole.


Was I wrong? She really was cool and we did like each other, she sent me back her money from our dates without me even asking about it, and told me to throw out her sweater she left in my car.


Today was supposed to be our fourth date

It can be disappointing when interactions backfire. I am sorry to hear this happened. Hopefully, the next interaction on bumble is more positive!

Gosh…I’m so sorry for the pain I imagine you are feeling at this sudden break…and the misunderstandings you believe are in play.


The good news is that there are millions of other girls out there to meet, to connect with and have adventures with.


Alliw yourself some time to feel sad and bummed out but please don’t blame or second guess yourself. In fact, I think you might feel good about being brave enough to meet new people. Keep going, my friend, because perseverance Furthers…
