[quote=Zoneflare4]dude this should be an obvious no thing to do after that incident. He needs a professional to help him and it seems like you may have this stupid notion that you can "heal" him which only leads to major problems and never turns out like it does in the movies. Any bad argument that happen in the relationship or if he doesnt get what he wants (like sex) could lead to an attempted suicide episode.[/quote]
yeah youre probably right; its just that i know he hates people interfering with his personal life so he doesnt like seeing counselors, etc. but now i see that he really needs it. ill just try my best to help him as a friend and see that he makes a recovery.
thank you all for your help.

omg if you like him just go out with him,

DO NOT enter into a relationship with him just yet. He needs to get his life sorted out and you don't need to be there along for the ride. You can help him if you want but don't add the responsibility of a relationship into the mix.

@sayaka

he cray qurl! stay away!

That was damn deep.

@sayaka I think it's great your introspective enough to question your own intentions

That being said, if you overthink this, you won't get very far. You need to sit down with your feelings and really think about how you feel about him, independent of his condition. That being said, as many others have said, you have the power to set him on the path to save his own life. Let him know you care about him, and you want to see him get better, and that if he's willing to work with his issues you might be able to foresee a more intimate future. The more straightforward you are with him the more likely he is to respond positively- but if you pair the message of concern with reciprocated feelings of interest in a potential relationship, I can only see positive growth happening

Good luck!

If you plan to date him, you have to ask yourself - are you doing it out of love, out of pity, or out of a sense of duty to help a friend recover? Each one leads down to its own path, but all of them require you to put forth a great deal of responsibility and commitment in dealing with his condition. Give this some time to think over before you make a well reasoned decision.

be his gf. save a life. lol
To save one life is better than to build a seven-story pagoda.

Being suicidal and not loving yourself are not equivalent. Suicidal people often have self esteem issues, but its not always that way.

Depends on if you date him for pity or love. If you really have feelings for him then proceed, if it's pity, tell him the truth and ultimately no matter what you should try to help him.

It honestly depends on how well you can cope with and support those negative means. Me personally, I'd go against it. He clearly needs some real help to resolve his own problems before dragging others with him (And I don't mean that in a bad way, it's just this can harm you too).

What if he's just faking it to get your into pants?

just date him and break him. I actually wonder how far he'll go, either way at that point you can stop him and be a hero, or you can drive him to death and be proud of the fact that you have such capabilities.

This is coming from someone recovering from serious depression. It really helps to hold hands with someone down the road to recovery. But, it takes effort. Don't jump into this relationship unless you are committed and ready to take on a challenge.

Don't do it man. Nine times out of ten suicidal people end up being two-faced butts that will make you wish that they would kill themselves.

if you do decide to go out with him, dont let his suicidal tendencies to control you.

[quote=RitoPls]You should date me instead.

Ya, don't date anyone suicidal because they'll just bum you out and things can only turn out badly. I'm sure you deserve better. :^)[/quote]
