Starting a relationship with someone who tried to commit suicide

[suuphy]

Any tips? I don't want to dance around the subject but I don't want to trigger them either. What would be the best way to approach them about it?

The last relationship I was in, the guy said he was going to kill himself if I left him, I panicked and threatened to report him which made him back off very quickly but was this the right thing to do?

I've never been in this sort of situation, but I'll try to give you the best advice I can. Personally, I wouldn't bring up the subject unless he wants to talk about it. It's a sensitive subject, and I would only talk about it if he wants to discuss it, in which you should act respectfully.

You did the right thing. It's important to be in control of yourself and never feel scared or threatened to be in a relationship you don't want to be in.
