I will never understand how people can take suicide so lightly. She sounds like an awful person all around. You're better off OP.

Call her bluff and leave. She's not actually going to do it, and you don't need that kind of toxic, manipulative person in your life. In the extremely unlikely circumstance that she does go through with it, she was already going to do it anyway.

forgive her, pretend like things are normal and then cheat on her.

Then tell her you're both even and dump her.

Call 911 and tell them you think someone is going to kill themselves, that'll show her, and you don't have to worry about her actually doing it. :)

Dump the ****, tell her family she's threatening suicide, and don't look back. Do NOT cave. I don't know if the police can do anything about suicide threats, but getting some kind of authorities involved would be a good idea.

Where I'm fromfrom. , you can notify the police to the situation and explain to them the bare minimum of information, you don't have to be really detailed about it unless they want more information, and then you're covered. If she does it, there is a 911 recording of you looking out for her well being and if she doesn't do it, then she looks like an ass when the police show up to investigate because they have ever to legally look into every threat like that..

I doubt she really do it.. It's horrible how people use that to blackmail..

Borderline Personality Disorder; read up! The life you save may be your own.

Yeah I was thinking that too. I've read that they will threaten suicide because they are afraid of abandonment. A good fictional example of BPD is Anakin Skywalker from Star Wars.

#172 It's not so much about manipulation as a fear of abandonment. I have read in psychology textbook that people with BPD will threaten suicide to avoid abandonment. I'm sure all people with BPD do this but it's common enough to mention. Of course, she could also just be a horrible, manipulative person. Either way, her suicide threat shouldn't be taken lightly. OP doesn't have to stay with her but he should contact the police or suicide prevention just in case it's serious.

An abusive bitch who turns around and plays the victim. Guilt tripping in order to maintain her sluttiness. Call her bluff.

Let her? She's bluffing and even if she somehow isn't at least you won't have a manipulative bitch in your life.
