i really need help. I want to break up with my boyfriend cuz im tired of him hurting me and feeling like he doesnt care about me. but... I dont want him to hurt himself / commit suicide. Im talking to him on AIM now and he says i should see all the blood and that it hurts and he doesnt want to live. I havent even told him that i want to break up with him but i think he figured it out.
i want to break up with him but i dont want him to hurt himself. But i think he already has =\. What can i do? I know i should tell somebody about him hurting himself, but i dont really know what to tell them...?? please help me!

Any man that hurts another woman in relationship is definitely not the right one for you. Problems like this just get worse over the years so it's important you put a stop to it immediately.
You made a wise choice to text him. Sometimes one-on-one communication isn't the best, especially since he sounds violent. Don't worry about him hurting himself. If he has physically harmed you in any way, you should not feel guilty. I know you can't help it though because naturally, you worry about him.
Also, telling someone would be smart. Start off by telling a guidance counseler at school or your parent. There are also hotlines for abusive relationships. They are nice people that are willing to help. Best of luck with this. Remember to worry about yourself because as I can tell, he is not right for you & you need to be safe. I hope this works out & if you need any more help, I'll be here.

Don't stay with him because of threats. That's like being held hostage. :) [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]
naimee answered Saturday May 28 2005, 4:26 pm: hey boyfriend threatening i know you probably dont feel like telling anyone but to tell you i had a friend who was about to commit suicide over a guy who had just dumped her i had to stop her i went to her house and talked to her about it she still thanks me to this day but anywayz what i think you should do if he is hurting you then he doesnt deserve you he wont commit suicide because 90% of teenage boys do not commit sucide and plus tell him that there are more girls out there than just you and tell him that he should of known that it would be over soon because he hurt you and didnt give a crap about you or your feelings so why should you care about his but if you want to be his friend talk to him about it and how you feel and if he threatens to kill himself go to his house and stop him if you need any more advice just IM me on my AIM screen name grkpimpva [ naimee's advice column | Ask naimee A Question ]
Teza answered Saturday May 28 2005, 2:45 pm: To me it sounds like he really doesnt want to kill himself. He wants attention from you because he isnt getting that much. If you break up with him because of that... then thats just really messed up. You need to talk to him and not just tell him to stop. Show him that you care about him and that you would do anything if he stoped. Just be there for him because thats what he needs right now. Tell him the reason you want to break up with him is because he wont even try to stop. ♥ [ Teza's advice column | Ask Teza A Question ]

TiCkLeD_pInK540 answered Saturday May 28 2005, 12:54 pm: first of all i would tell his parents or a counselor. they can really help. and if this guy is unstable you shouldn't be with him, he could be dangerous. break it to him gently and be really sweet about it. give him a big hug and a waterbottle that's decorated with little bows and ribbons and stuff that says "best friends" and "love ya like a brother" and just little stuff like that, then fill it with candy and write him a letter saying how much you care about him as a person and how much you really want to help him. that was he knows that even though you broke up with him, you still care. check up on him a lot so he understand that you want him to be better and that you understand too. i hope it all goes well! good luck!
