[quote=Anonymous]16:15 poster here. I obviously don't know the guy, but my hunch is that he's not trying to threaten her with the implicit suicide remarks. What he wants to do is come out an say "I am afraid I am going to kill myself" but he is either too ashamed to admit it outright or is afraid if he says that, she will immediately leave him. So instead he's just tiptoing around it.

For what its worth, about 15 years ago, I was in a similar situation as this guy. My girlfriend forced me to get help, then promptly got the hell out of the relationship once I did. I've since recovered, become successful, and am happily married with a kid. I am both sorry for what I put my ex-girlfriend through and also appreciative that she stuck around long enough to get me help.

I certainly wouldn't blame your friend for leaving this guy once she gets him some help. I just think she should try to do that first as long as she does not think either her safety or the safety of her children are immediately at issue.[/quote]
