Is your partner's ability to calm you an important factor?

I try to, but he lets me rant and rave until I get it out of my system. I am bipolar. He kinda just let's me be when I have a moment.

i depend heavily on my boyfriend emotionally, and given my mental instability for the moment at least i really need him to be able to calm me and make me okay which he always does

No I’ve always self-soothed. Someone telling me to calm down and not let my emotions go full cycle makes it worse

Nope! What is a significant other? Been single 13 plus years, so I guess it all falls on me to care for me.

Honestly,I could go without but it’s definitely nice to have

I used to but not for years now.

Mine knows how to keep me calm.
