Ok...so I have a boyfriend and is name is Tyler he's 13 and he is VERY bipolar and it's pissing me off. He pouts everytime I hang out with him. I CAN'T TAKE IT! I want to break up with him, but he'll slit his wrist and I know thats its just for attention. ButI don't want him too. So can someone tell me to tell him something so it doesn't seem so bad??

Talk to him about what he's doing to piss you off and that if he doesn't fix himself, you'll consider breaking it off with him. If he still doesn't fix himself, dump the guy. You don't need a whiny emo kid weighing you down all the time.

I think that you should tell his parents first that you think this might happen. Maybe that does not seem an appropriate thing to do or you don't think he will like it, but i think that it should take a backseat to his life, you don't want to feel guilty later.
Then tell him that you need space for yourself and that you don't think you should see him anymore. try to do this at his home or yours so he can't do anything to himself.

First, say something like, "I think you're a great guy, but I realized that I'm just not ready to have a boyfriend right now." (Even if that is a lie, say it anyways because it will make him feel better.)
Then try saying, "I think you're really awesome, and it's really hard for me to do this, but I think we should break up. I wuld love to still be friends though." (Even if all of that is lies, it tends to work with the emo-suicidal boyfriends.)
Put forward a little fake or non fake sympathy for him, and act like you're really upset that you're brekaing up. If he sees that you're kind of upset too, he might not feel too bad.
And to end the conversation, say something like, "There are so many other girls out there that would like you. I just don't think it's going to work out with you and me right now."
I did this, and its the nicest way ever of breaking up with a guy. If he still doesn't get the picture after this, don't be afraid to be a little nasty. Also, don't go out with soemone else one day after you break up, just wait a few days, so he doesn't get suspicious.
I hope this break-up turns out better than mine did! The freaking kid is still obsessed with me.
If you want, you can try to "be a friend" to him if you're scared that he'll hurt himself. Usually though, guys just say that to make you feel bad so you'll take him back.
