Its "Bear with me". The saying comes from what I believe was an old english term that eventually became bearer, as in paulbearer. It was a term that was meant to mean "Hang in with me". It meant to basically "work through the situation even though it sucks total a$$."

Bear with me a moment while I explain. It's good that you ask this as I sometimes have to think about it myself. The verb "to bear" has many meanings: 1. To carry, bring or take; 2. To show eg to bear the marks of suffering/success etc; 3. To produce (fruit or offspring) 4. To sustain, eg to bear the cost or weight of something, or to put up with it; 5a. To carry in thought eg "I'll bear that in mind"; 5b To carry arms ie weapons.
The noun bear is of course the animal
The verb "To bare" means to reveal eg "he bared his soul/ body" etc
The adjective "bare" means uncovered or plain: "these are the bare facts"
"I bear here in my hands that which I made with my bare hands"
However the sentence "I cannot bare this any longer and must now put on my clothes" would be correctly spelt either way.
(By now I expect you are wishing you hadn't asked)
Bare means unclothed or uncovered,
