Sorry to sound so cold hearted but I would present myself to my partner and let them know that it was over. If they started that BS about taking their lives I would get her a knive and say well wait until I leave before you attempt anything. Before doing this however I would certainly let my partner's family know of my attention and their threats of self harm as well as the family doctor. Good luck to you and hopefully all it is, is a threat and that your mate will not go through with this threat.

That means you can't live with it neither can't live without it. You got 2 simple choices; first one is leave your spouse. No matter what the outcomes are, make up your mind that you are going to leave it.
Or second choice is to make up your mind that you have to live with your spouse. Then restart your life & relationship with a new beginning. For a short period of time, forget everything about yourself & think only about your spouse. Do things as he or she likes, & you'll see that there will be no differences after all.
You have to take the first step. Also you have to decide that is that step is going towards your spouse or going away from your spouse.

You make your plans to leave, get everything in order...then right before you leave, call the mental health professionals and/or the police, and let them deal with his suicidal dramatics, whether they are sincere or just a ploy to get your sympathy and attention...If you aren't happy, then by all means go...I must do the same one day...and i know it won't be easy, but it must be done...just don't be guilted or manipulated into staying in an unhappy relationship...

Tell his family his intentions. His suicide threat is most likely (but dont quote me) a cry for help, and he know's it's keeping you with him.
If you are genuinly worried that he will try it, tell his family, so that they are aware, plus, if he know's they are aware, he may cut the crap. Also, there are hotlines to call. You have options, don't let someone manipulate you into staying. This is YOUR life, live it.
Good luck.

You have to do what is best for you. It is not healthly for either of you to stay in a relationship that is "going sour". In the end, if he really wants to kill himself, he will and there is nothing that you can do about it. He needs to move on and seek help and you need to move on with your life.

If you are reallyunhappy inthe relationship and he is always threatening to commit suicide just go donot look back he is only doing it tomake your life miserable but if you relaly love him and you want things to work out then you and he needs togetsome help to work things out. But if you seriously want it to end then walk out and do not look back.

Leave now, walk away and preserve your own life. You cannot be responsible for someone else's actions.Don't stay trapped in this situation.

this person has major issues..they need intervention then counseling and maybe even meds..but you cant stay in a relationship you are not happy in..you need to talk to this person and get them to agree to the help they need

If a man puts a gun to his own head, it means he lacks the guts to put a gun to your head, but the intent is the same. I say leave, and if he does kill himself, it's his doing, not yours.
