I'm dating someone that is bi-polar can anyone relate?

Question: I've been dating a wonderful man who is bi-polar, we love each other very much.. but I'm going nuts! We are both in our 40's. He flip flops back and forth.. he will say something one night.. that is wonderful.. but then a week or so later.. completely contradict what he said.. then he'll go back again.. like: I love you very very much and I'm falling in love with you... but then a few weeks later he'll say: I love you very very much.. but I'm not "in love" with you.. then a few weeks later he goes back to falling in love with me! Cripes! I love him very much and would love to keep building a relationship with him.. is this typical of someone that is bi-polar?
And please this is very serious to me.. only serious answers..

Answers:
With bi polor it takes quit a while to find the right combinations of medicines, but when it is done, the person can lead a relatively normal life, and they have to take the medications each day, A certain number of major hospitals across the country are working on some new meds that may work wonders, the studies so far are fantastic, I believe in about 6 to 10 years it will be a easy to treat, where the person can live a normal life, it is hard to date or marry a person with a disability, but we all need love and knowing somebody is there for us, and also shows true courage, and to the person above who wrote why would you want to go through this, does that mean if her husband got cancer, depression, she will just pick up and leave? That shows her true character. As a disabled veteran, I am lucky to be blessed with a wonderful wife and family, I have seen the blessings come to them who care for the sick and disabled, give him a real good chance at love, God Bless

I think it is. Does he take meds? If he does they should HELP level him out a bit, but nothing is a sure cure. My Godson is bi-polar and acts similar. When they are in a manic state, they are very loving, upbeat etc, but when they are on a down swing, they can be mean, moody and less than sociable.
