Real Life Advice

don't get guilted into dating this guy. he sounds like he has some issues he needs to figure out.

if he's using his life to gain pity like that or threaten you to date him, then that's an obvious sign he might have some problems and to distance yourself a little bit from him. you may feel bad but it's better than dating him out of guilt. since he seems to be depressed, you could possibly talk to a teacher or his parents to kind of warn them how he said he was gonna die alone so an adult can help keep an eye on him.

oh man, don't fall for it(if you only see him as friend). if he's guilt tripping you then that is a freaking no-go. just always reject him properly, always be on check of you temperament as they tend to be so persistent(and this happened to me too, but i lost my temper and lashed out on him now he doesn't talk to me anymore the difference is we were never friends just classmates, so since you said you were friends, just be a little bit patient on him and play cool lol)

my sister was dating someone like this. My sis actually loved her, but they'd fight and when my sis would try and break up, she'd get the "I'll kill myself" speech. It was a very bad relationship that nearly cost my sister her life. She went to the hospital once for an "accidental" wrist slash when she was washing dishes where the "knife slipped". And then another time for an OD for meds she was on. The GF knew, went to work, and didn't say anything until hours later when my mom called her to check on my sis because she wasn't answering the phone. Thankfully my parents had checked on her or she probably wouldn't be with us now. To this day she swears she never attempted suicide. They were "accidents". She finally got out of that relationship and the GF actually did kill herself. Took my sister a long time to get over that, and I think there's a part of her that still blames herself. So the moral of this story is....don't date him. Tell an adult so he can get the help he needs. You may care for him, but it doesn't sound like you like him in that way and he obviously either needs help or a swift kick up the rear if he's just doing this to manipulate you. Either way, you would be doing more harm than good by dating him out of guilt

Cut him off immediately because all he's doing is manipulating you. It may seem small now but he may use that to pressure you into something you don't consent to. If wanna keep him tho, when he goes on a sermon like that let him know you're here for him when life gets too hard and you'll support him but your position still stands. I've had friends like that, I tell them I'm here for u bc I'm ur friend but ur not going to make me do (whatever) and it generally stopped once they saw they couldn't use me. And tbfh people who are actually depressed have this fear of being a burden on others because of their mental health so they tend to be distant (i.e. me)

bruh, he's using death as a way to force you into a relationship with him. i can already tell if you did fall for it and dated him, later on if you happen to not want to anymore and break up, he's gonna come and kill you then himself. these are the types of situations that lead up to couples killing themselves and the types you see on tv. distance yourself from him. he's not stable.

that's is called "manipulation", honey. it's an amazingly simply way to make others do what you want. and the best part is - they won't even know!

DO NOT CARE. your life is your own. if someone says that they're gonna die or suicide because you won't date them, that's their problem, not yours. it's not like you love him, right? and how much of what he's saying is even true? is he really gonna kill himself because you won't date him? is that all that his life meant to him? does he really think it's worth it? and besides, if the love is one-sided, that mean even you do go out with him, you can't love him back and that'll only hurt him more.
