Stick with them if you really care about them but if you just like them because they're suicidal and you think you can help them .. that's a different story. You're not gonna end up doing any good anyway.

i liked her before i knew she was suicidal. really it has no effect on my liking her. she has good self esteem now, i just think it's strange that girls i've liked have attempted suicide.

there is some truth to that. i would also like to add the following:


suicidal people are usually weak and in a fragile state. you find it difficult to approach "normal" girls because you are insecure about yourself. instead you try to date "suicidal" chicks, who in their weak and fragile state are more involved in their own problems and will most likely overlook your own shortcomings. it might also be the case that will they acknowledge your shortcomings, but they may seem insignificant relative to the problems that the girl is facing. in effect you go for the "damsel in distress" because she's easier to impress/help/comfort than your average girl.

focus on your own self image, and you might be able to aim for "higher standards." although it's good to befriend and assist those in need of help, it's definitely not healthy for someone to be attracted to suicidal partners. it's especially unhealthy when you yourself are able to establish such a trend.

You could talk to a counselor too. Even sane people can benefit from gaining deeper insight into their actions and feelings. :)

What he said.

If you're serious with this girl. I would say go for it but be prepared to go face to face with all her mood swings and insecurities. She might not show it now but she will in time. Just be prepared. I've seen more than enough. Why was she suicidal?? Was it because of a relation ship gone bad??

like i said, i liked her a lot before i knew these things about her. indeed, my first "International booty call" thread was made before i knew these things about her.

that's besides the point though. people that are suicidal don't become that way over night. there is a general personality and trend that is typical of depression and suicidal tendencies that build up months and years before an attempt is actually made on one's life. for reasons i stated earlier, you find yourself leaning towards traits that are typical of depressed and suicidal individuals.

It all depends. Some do it because they really think that there's no point living while others do it because they want the attention.

well, i'm not an expert. but suicide is not typical of individuals only searching for attention. usually there are reasons for why that person wants attention that are much more serious than may first seem apparent. it might also be the case that the person might be looking for attention, so that those individuals that are "flagged down" might bring their attention to the problems that this person is facing.

actually, it seems to me that suicidal chicks have major self esteem problems and attempt suicide because 1) they are depressed and really do want to end it (not as likely) or 2) they are depressed and want attention from someone else to take pity on them (more likely). Either way, you should increase your self-esteem and go out with confident chicks who know what they want and ignore you at first because they do that to most guys and then when they meet the "one" that treats them right and takes care of them them, they will open up and you'll have a solid relationship. That was my experience anyway...
