Break-up Question, Suicide threat...?

Ok so I just broke up with my boyfriend yesterday because the relationship was causing both of us stress and I thought I was just bringing more pain by staying with him. I would always end up hurting him because I was so indecisive on things and always took things back and I would always be crabby. I thought he was clingy and I was convinced that I was just hurting him by staying with him and not promising anything. Now he's saying he's thinking about killing himself cause I was trying to give back his band uniform to him. He says I'm trying to cut him out of my life, I just feel uncomfortable with having something of his just in case of things get worse. I'm just not sure what to do. It seems like everything I say is wrong and inflames the situation and makes him more and more depressed and I'm scared it will push him over the edge and I will be having to go to a funeral soon. I would completely blame myself if he killed himself...what should I do?

    He's not going to kill himself. He's being manipulative and just wants your attention. You should either talk to his parents or the counselor at your school and tell them that he's been threatening suicide. They will make sure he gets the help he needs, if he needs any at all. In the meantime you do need to cut off contact with him. What this guy is doing to you is wrong, don't let him be a part of your life any more. You are not responsible for his emotional or mental health, but you do need to protect your own.

    Give him back his stuff and don't feel sorry for him if he did kill himself. He most likely has been saying that since he was a little kid. Just remember that no matter what happens it is not your fault.

    The guy has a problem and you don't need to be part of it

    sounds like a trap, he's just trying to convince you to take him back, & he would be an idiot to kill himself over a basic thing that happens in life.

    Tell him that if he suicides, you'll suicide too. If he loves you so much that he's ready to suicide without you, then he should probably love you enough to live for your own sake.
