You sound charming, what a catch you are. Is it only me that finds this completely self-centered? The fact that you say "if..he does do it" shows that you are worried that he might actually do it - but you're worried for yourself!

Sorry but you have obviously never been in an abusive relationship. It gets to the point where you really don't care. I can see exactly where sqeaky is coming from.
(my father was horribly abusive and just would not let go).

Give her a break and let her enjoy the strength she has found to eal with this ex

It says online that I'm supposed to talk to him nicely because he's threatening suicide and try to get him to seek help. Do I really have to do this? I'm giving him the attention he wants and, to be absolutely brutally honest, I really don't care if he dies or not. I'm immune to his whining - and I know from the past that he always did this to previous girlfriends. So it's probably all pretend, anyway. But if I say the wrong thing and he does do it, is there any comeback on me?

best thing is to tell him to get on with it , He has no intention of killing himself he is using it as a weapon to make you talk /spend time with him

you don't have to be nice your not a trained councillor and as i say he wants you to talk him out of it , he is hopin you will take him back so just tell him to get on with it

You're right, I have not, and I clearly don't know all of the context here, so I apologise for that.

However, to me it sounds as though this person has problems and I don't think it is right to near enough wish death on them. They clearly need help. I am sure the OP would actually be saddened if this individual took his own life - surely OP would rather he helped himself.

But the point about him wanting to accept help is a fair one.

Sorry, perhaps I wasn't awfully constructive.

You know what sqeeky, after all you've been through I would probably have said "Oh goody, actually hang on just a couple of minutes while I make a brew so I can watch in comfort". Then asked him if I could sell tickets and put a vid of it on youtube.

Agree with the others, just call the police and tell them there's a man with a knife, if questioned further say you don't know who it is because you just saw the knife, felt scared and shut the curtains so that he didn't see you.

Not sure he does need help, he knows exactly what he's doing. Is there a help centre for attention seekers?

OP, I'm glad you got away, as others say call the police. What about his family, do they bother with him? Maybe you could call them and tell them what he's doing, you are NOT his responsibility.
