Ok, this is not healthy at all. You need out of this relationship. You need to let his family or an adult get him help and you need to move on. You are not responsible to wreck your life to save his.

I agree with JoJo. This guy needs help and you need to contact an adult and tell them about this and have them help him.

That is ridiculous. I have never heard of a hospital that would do that and I have been to a lot of hospitals. Something was definitely wrong with that hospital. Talk to an adult and let them get him help.

Tell his parents what he did and ask them to be there when you tell him. It seems immature to need his parents there but honestly the way he’s acting fits that description. Tell them you can’t be there to make sure he doesn’t try to commit suicide and that you want the best for him. It’s not your fault he’s that way and don’t let his instability ruin your life. He’s manipulating the fact that you care about him, he knows you’ll stay if he threatens to kill himself. If his parents aren’t nearby then get his friends or someone you know you can trust to call the right people if he does try it.

If he is that suicidal, he will do it whether you stay with him or not. He will find another reason or he will get mad at you or some other reason. The fact is you need to value your life and your well being enough to take care of yourself and the best way to get him help is to get other people involved and let them take over. If you have to tell the hospital that he tried to kill himself when you tried to break up with him and you are going to break up with him so you are worried. He needs to take responsibility for his life, keeping him alive is not your job.

It’s not your problem if he kills himself, you’ve done more than enough. Report his actions to the police, his parents, his teachers, and anyone else in authority around him and GET OUT. If he would hurt himself so easily, who says you couldn’t be next?

Man! That’s not a relationship, it’s a hostage situation! I would call the cops before you break up with him, just to let them know what he did last time, and keep them on stand by for this time. If he’s willing to do that to himself, it’s not a far cry that he’d try it on you. Get away from him ASAP. Good Luck.

Well, it could be emotional blackmail in that he says he is going to kill himself but is just using that to make you stay with him. I mean, look at how he played the hospital saying he wasn’t suicidal. It must not have been a deep serious wound if they let him go that fast.

Just be careful though. He would likely hurt you before actually seriously hurting himself. I would also let the police know before you make a move. Let others know too what is going on & how he is threatening you especially your family.

Please take care.

Haha ironic, I once had a gf like that.
She had me scared all the time, and she was insanely jealous.(I have No idea how I ended up hooked with someoen like her, so dont ask).
When I tried breaking up with her she said she would suicide and she cut her arm.
I told her she could suicide if she wanted but it was over.
The girl never suicided, and I continued my life….dont let sick people like those control your actions, people like that are not worth your time.
