If he approaches you again, tell him that you have issues and that you can't really handle the added stress of a relationship. YOu don't have to tell him you are bipolar.
just my 2 cents.

Thumbs Down

Tell him you changed your mind about going out with him. I know it's hard but when you're dealing with half the population that is out to get you have to set the boundries. If he doesn't like it or continues to bother you tell him you'll call the police.

I agree with Bizi. I would also just say you want to just be friends.

Or do not give any reason.

Simply say you changed your mind.

Hi bobby,

I agree with everyone here.
You don't have to disclose you deal with challenges associated with bipolar.

Many women without bipolar challenges might feel very uncomfortable. I am not sure bipolar has anything to do with your discomfort with him?

It's always enough to say you have changed your mind, and/or you just want to be friends. Don't disclose more than you want to disclose.

If you and he had already been dating, and getting serious, you might then explain more about yourself. That's not the case at this time.

Yet, bobby, please handle this however you are most comfortable!

i don't want to be friends with. maybe it is my bipolar and his reminding me of a guy i dated a couple of years ago who really got on my nerves. I feel liking skipping lunch today, one more time...and just stay home and read. He didn't call me yesterday so maybe I hope he got the message. When i think of him i am irritated.

Bobby,

I think you know your feelings and a women's intuition if one of her greatest assets. You obviously don't want to give the impression you care to further any friendship.

Please don't stop going to the center. If he is there and tries to start up a conversation or whatever; I would suggest you excuse yourself and say something about having to talk to someone across the room and just up and leave him alone. I think, if he hasn't already, he will get the message.

I think you will probably need to tell him that you changed your mind....
I hate confrontations. But you belong to that senior center and should be able to go freely.

Hi bobby!

I am glad you went to the senior center today!

I also think you will need to tell him what you want.
He may feel a bit confused at this point. Once you tell him, you can both move forward in life. You won't need to be worried about him pursuing you. He may move on to someone else of interest.

Have a fun weekend, bobby!
