No it does not, you will like the same people whether or not you have bipolar. Imagine someone you love no matter what (family member, friend etc), you know that you will like that person ''no matter what''. The same goes for you, bipolar will not change this change you like. However that's not to say you will always like the same type of people, as you go through life what you like in a person can change. This is a normal.
