Living with someone who has bipolar can be a difficult task, but it is doable.   You have to ask yourself if the person you're with is worth it.  Do you love them?  If you do, then there's your answer.

 It helps if your bipolar mate is on the right medication.  Are they actively seeking treatment by a psychiatrist and a therapist?  Finding the right treatment for themselves is key to controlling the bipolar and thereby having a better relationship with you.
