Ex Boyfriend is Suicidal =|

Long story short:

I've been going out with my (now) ex boyfriend for 6 months, and in the fifth month I cheated on him with someone I've known for a long time. I have now begun to fall for this other guy, and my exboyfriend (I told him about cheating on him. I ONLY CHEATED ONCE!) and I broke up yesterday.

The problem is that I "am his everything" and "if I leave, then he's going to die". And that's exactly what he wants to do. He wants to commit suicide and I've been able to talk him out of it, however he said he's planning on "doing the deed" sometime during the next weekend.

I plan to go to a guidance councellor on Monday morning to ask for help. I have no idea what to do. He treated me very badly, and he's making promises to "treat me better" but I'm done. I mean, a person can take only so much BS in the span of six months.

I still care about him. I just don't know what to do.
Has anyone ever been in this position or ha any advice?
Thanks for reading..

ok hun...first of all, if hes not the person that you want to be with, then dont be with him, you would just be making yourself unhappy. second of all, some people say that kind of stuff when they break up so that the person will stay with them. its almost like a threat. i had a ex say that before and alot of my friends have too......they wont usually do it unless they are somewhat twisted i guess you could say. he will eventually move on and it will be ok...i wouldnt stress it and remember that if hes not the one you want to be with, dont play games, it will just make it harder in the long run. hope i could be of any help and if you ever just wanna talk you and msg me at just_me2032 on yahoo :D

Okay, thanks guys :)

I'm still a little confused about what I should do. How should I talk to him? It seems to be coming to the point where he's so desperate. IT's becoming quite stalker-like. =|

try to somewhat avoid him for a while...let him calm down and take in everything thats going on. and if he does start stalking you, then you need to do something about it by telling someone or something, but dont worry about him hurting himself...thats another thing like she said that he wouldnt be talking about it so much if he was actually gonna do it....like i said in my first answer...its just like a threat. good luck to you :D

That's a real tight situation, because you can't guarantee if he's bluffing or not..

You need to tell him if he really loved you, he wouldn't worry with things like suicide.

*deleated*

He's lying. Just tell him you're sorry you can't be with him, and stay away from him.

Been there without the cheating part.

Just talk to him and give him a lot of complements and say your sorry for anything you have ever done and just everyhting that will make him feel better!
