I'm currently stuck in a relationship with a girl that threatens to kill herself if I leave her, and there is no more love in this relationship. I'm only dating her so she doesn't kill herself. What do you suggest I do to get out of this situation?

leave her with her parents, her friends, or her professionals.
you cannot be held repsonsible for someone who kills themselves, and while its a shitty thought, shes either going to do it or she wont.
and likely, she wont. its just something people say to get attnetion

I just don't know what to say to her.
How do I go about breaking it off?

Another anon here, I would recommend telling others first and confronting her about it with others in person. Like you and her parents siting in a room and having her walk and sit down to talk about it.
I'm not sure if that's the best way but its all I can think of.

It doesn't matter, it will hurt her no matter what. Just don't be a total ass about it.
>>18413061
she wont do it, call her bluff
just dump her. if you live together, pack her shit while shes not home and change the locks
t. been there, done that

Try and tell her how the relationship makes you feel.
Stuff like "I feel sad when you threaten to kill yourself over me leaving. It upsets me because it isn't fair and feels like you're trying to trap me or something. I feel like this relationship is built on fear right now, instead of love."

>my personal experience applies to every single other situation remotely similar to OP's
It's worth noting that considering/attempting suicide and actual suicide are considered separate in the psychiatric field. It isn't hard to kill yourself, someone who threatens to or attempts to (cuts wrists, takes a bunch of pills etc.) is 99% of the time doing it for attention. Not saying she isn't mentally sick, she still is, just not in the way it might seem. If you wanna leave, leave. She probably won't kill herself. If she actually does, that's ultimately on her, not you.
