Hello Everyone.
Sometimes when a partner decides to end a relationship, it could be devastating for the other partner especially when love still exists between them or when there's been so much attachment. It could be so emotionally depressing that could sometimes lead to a partner threatening to commit suicide. This is a threat which sometimes is just a trash talk to get the other partner to stay back. But sometimes, this is a serious threat that has actually been carried out by some people.
No matter what the condition may be, a partner that makes such a threat in response to a break up needs to be counselled. Like I mentioned, this sort of threats are just to make the leaving partner stay back in the relationship and this shouldn't be allowed. We are all responsible for the choices we make in our lives so no one is responsible for the death of another person through suicide. The choice is theirs to live has always been ours.
If you choose to stay back in the relationship with such a partner to stop him/ her from taking their lives like most people do, I'm afraid to say this isn't healthy and you'll only end up having a relationship with more complications, sentiments and dissatisfaction. The best help you or anyone else can do for such a partner is by immediately involving the right persons or third party that could help him/her overcome this thought and help them move on easily. This could be their family, friends, a counselor, therapist or the police if necessary.
Thanks for reading. I hope you found this post helpful.
