He suffers from multi-personality disorder
My boyfriend and I have been dating for a while now but he ignores me all the time and I am getting sick of it. I don't deserve it and it's bringing me down and making me feel neglected. He blames him ignoring me on his multi personality disorder. I want to deal with it but I don't know. I wanna accept him for his flaws but it's just so silly. He's never blamed it on that before. Please help.

I think you would know if your boyfriend suffered from MPD. If he is suffering from MPD he would have 2 or more separate and distinctive personalities. Each of which would be easily identifiable.
While I am not a doctor, it is more likely your boyfriend suffers from some form of manic depression, such as bipolar disorder. As the other writer said the extreme in this disease has to be seen and or experienced to understand.
I can't help you with the question of why he is suddenly blaming things on this disorder. It could be he trusts you. Or it could just be an excuse. If he is suffering from chronic depression he needs professional medical help. This type of depression is not something you can get over by yourself. Left untreated he could even hurt himself and or others.
If your willing to deal with it then you must be willing to help him get the help he needs. It won't be easy for he will feel as if he is functioning without help and not in need of help. He will only ask for help when he finds himself at rock bottom. Just what his rock bottom will be I can't say.

First, you need to find out whether he has a serious mental condition that involves multiple personalities. Many times, people suffer from depression or bipolar disorder, but don't quite understand their issue and misinterpret it as a separate personality. I had the same problem; it turns out, I had bipolar disorder to the point where I -felt- like two different people at different times. There's an EXTREME difference. EXTREME.
If he's starting to use it as a constant excuse, it's up to you to either A. put up with his shit or, B. confront him about it head on. If he really -does- have a mental disorder in which he has another person in his head, this could be a make-or-break situation in your relationship. It involves carrying MANY burdens; you need to learn how to deal with this 'other' person, his likes, dislikes, mental stamina, his reactions to you...it's a whole other ballfield then a person who is just depressed or bipolar, chickie.
