Hey guys, don't post here often though I'm reading here all the time and have been for years.
Anyways, my de-facto girlfriend whom I've been seeing for the past 3 or 4 months has depression. She is on anti-depressants (something I find unattractive and greatly disapprove of), has broken down crying once during a particularly "hard" session of sex and has just randomly, out of the blue broken down into uncontrollable tears with me once or twice. She refuses to tell me what is causing any of these episodes. Other than these isolated incidents however she is an amazing girl with whom I truly enjoy spending time.

What I am wondering is what your guys' thoughts are on her, in my opinion, personality disorder. As cynical and cruel as it sounds I do not want to be weighed down with the burden of a mentally unstable person in my life. Are these signs of greater trouble up ahead? Can a fruitful LTR be had with such a girl? She has mentioned that her father walked out on her very young. Any feedback would be appreciated.

Yours,
Brownhole

My first impulse would be to say cut your losses and get out... but that's kind of cruel, so let me ask first: What positive qualities does she have that would make you want to stay with her?

Without sounding too cheesy, she is everything I'd want in the girlfriend department: submissive, pretty, low body count (3 including me), and I genuienely enjoy her company apart from the sex.

When she goes missing i just hookup with different girls from time to time who are cool but they are not her. But if i need to cut her loose, I will. I am not afraid of losing her, it's just that I like her.

Context: she is VERY depressed....does not eat and does not talk to anyone including her mom and sisters and locks herself up in the room. I give her space when she is in this state and hopes that she reaches out but I don't want her to lose respect for me because I am staying around too much like some guy who cant get another girl. She has tried on multiple occasions to end things before saying she feels like she doesn't deserve my love but from my perspective Ive not done anything special apart from being understanding.

Note that I am currently living in Taiwan for about 1 year and have known this girl for about 7-8months now. I will be graduating and will possibly go back home in maybe next year. Point is I know this girl will not be my wife, I just want to enjoy the rest of my time with her before I leave.

Does she know that though?
