        We are teenagers still in college . We were in relationship for 7 months but that guy used to say he loves me from past 3 years. I am away from home because of college n hes in my native. i was still in infatuation phase but i went along as it all seemed fine in the beginning. But as the months progressed I found out that hes very abusive and smokes n all .Not too serious about future also. I tried to make him understand to make the relationship survive but it was of no use. A month ago I decided to end things with him and now he is blackmailing me that he will commit suicide if I don’t get back with him. I am really scared as I don’t want my parents to get involved. I don’t know what to do. Could anyone please suggest me what should I do?

            1. Never abuse or say go ahead and do it.
            2. Always share sucidal helpline and recommend to look for counsellor or talk to parents. We are not made for each other and you shouldn’t think about ending you life.
            3.Report him to his parents and if he is abusive then police as well.
            4. You can report him to sucidal helpline as well

            In this way you will be safe even if he commits unthinkable at least you tried the best. Most probably he is just blackmailing you because he knew he can’t do anything else to win you back

                He’s trying to manipulate you ain’t gonna do shit. Just ignore him and he’ll stop. The more attention you’ll give him the more he’ll act up.

                    This is true, but also in a fit of anger some ppl tend to say go ahead and do it etc….the scare is if they actually do it then a case could come up. Yes this is true that she needs to stop giving attention he’ll be ok in no time but she needs to be a little cautious for sometime.

                        Yeah that’s why I said to ignore him, means don’t say anything which will bite you back later. Telling him to do it in the heat of the moment is the worse she can do. He might try to fake his suicide and boom she got a case on herself. It is possible he might stalk her and all so yeah she should be cautious for the time being and avoid going out alone especially at night.

                            She mentioned long distance…if he doesn’t know where she lives (like deets of her residence in a particular area)and all then I don’t see if it’s a concern.

                                He lives near her places and can easily figure out her where she is studying which she might hv told him. She mentioned that he doesn’t work so he have enough time to visit her and harass her for ignoring him.

                          even if did, nothing will happen to you

                          Cops won’t take any action on you.

                          Call 112 or visit police station and give written complaint and take acknowledgement

                            Take this seriously but do NOT give in to manipulation. Document everything immediately – save all messages, emails, and call records where he’s making these threats. Take screenshots and back them up.

                            Contact his parents/family immediately – inform them of his suicide threats. Also alert your college counselor and consider filing a police report for harassment. If he does harm himself, that’s NOT your responsibility – he’s using this threat to control you.

                            Block him everywhere but keep the evidence. Most importantly: Tell your parents. I know it’s scary…..but they need to know, especially since he’s in your native place and could try to contact them. This is a serious situation that needs adult intervention.

                            You’re doing the right thing by breaking up. These threats are a form of emotional abuse, and they often escalate. Don’t face this alone — reach out to support systems now.

                            If you’re worried about immediate suicide risk, you can contact the suicide prevention helpline (number: 9152987821) – they’ll know exactly how to handle this situation.

                                  Girl don’t worry, I’ve been in a long distance too, just ignore the guy, don’t give him the attention he knows he’s getting your attention by blackmailing you emotionally. Block him from everywhere. Try to distract yourself and don’t say anything in a fit of rage because those words cld impact you later. You’re strong, I’ve faced this too and dw I understoos that he was just bluffing. Just be cautious okay?

                                    jisko karna hota hai voo duniya 10 nar bata ke nhi karta chupchap karta hai he’s trying to manipulate you emotionally, if its all done and dusted from your side be very clear in all your conversation,and no matter what he says do not in a fit of rage say/text anything that’ll be worked against you in the future. Hope he doesn’t have any private pictures of you with him or your alone, if Yes then you’ll have to involve police in this matter in case he threatens to use them

                                      People bluff like that, he won’t do shit. If you go back the abuse will double or triple. Even if he tries something, it will NOT be your fault. Just chill

                                            Threaten him to commit suicide if he doesn’t let you break up with him.

                                                  Ignore that shxt do what you want but only right thing. If he’s forcing and shxt, fk him that’s all I’d say. But why’d you be in “relationship” with him if you wanted to do this shxt and if he’s shit then why get into it in first place tf? Sigh, anyways, like I said if he’s forcing you to stay when he’s a fkers then fk him ignore and move away if you’re in wrong then fk u but whoever is good then great.
