Awks

Today, my girlfriend's mom pulled me aside and started telling me about how her daughter was extremely depressed and suicidal before she met me, and how happy her family is because of me. I was planning on breaking up with her within the next week. FML

Wow...That's a mind **** for sure. The fact that you thought about it tells me you are a good person. You have to do what's best for you though. You can keep her as a friend and support her.

You can't be responsible for someone else's happiness. Don't be in the relationship if you don't want to. Sucks, but that's life.

everyone who sas not to break up with your, your intentions are good, but your wrong. the OP should not feel like he must keep the relationship going because his girlfriend was suicidal. break up with her, but do it gently. tell her that you will still be close friends, and make sure to offer to help her get through watever hard times she is having. if you try your hardest to help her, no guilt is on you no matter wat happens. staying with someone you do not love because you feel you have to doesnt solve anything... it probably just makes things worse

I agree with bnisawsome. I went through a very similar situation two years ago. You should not feel obligated to stay with her. Yes it will be a tough breakup for her but she will get through it. Staying with her because of this will just make things worse because you will feel like the relationship is a burden.

just break up with her >-> but introduce her to other people. halp her out. panzy.

Don't let her mental problems prevent you from pursuing your own happiness. Don't stay with her at your own expense to preserve her fragile mental state. At the very most, get her into counseling before you dump her, and it might be a good idea to let her down extra gently due to her fragile mental state, but if you've already made the decision to dump her then you should follow through.

dump her GENTLY, but make sure you're still friends afterwards. because if you date her too long and get too serious, she'll eventually ask you when you're going to propose. it happened to my cousin and he had to dump her and she jacked his car...oh that was a mess...

Then break up with her. Best idea ever.

It does suck for you, but you kinda deserve it? Who waits ("planning") to dump someone. Just get it done with properly.

There's a chance that your girlfriend knew, and told her mom, so she'd help with keeping you in the game.

Thats harsh. I use to be super depressed and had a suicidal thought here and there and that would hurt alot. But seriously, if you dont like her, it hurts more to stay and lie.
