Is it normal to not want to be in a relationship with someone suicidal

76% Normal
5 Comments

I've been with my girlfriend for a few months and I have grown to love her very much but every now and again... I feel weird. Like I don't want to be with her. It's all because of how she is. She's tried to kill herself. And not for attention, she genuinely tried but luckily failed. To my knowledge, she has never tried it while we were together, but I always thing you know? Life can get pretty hard sometimes. Who is to say she will not try it again. Maybe next time we will have kids and she will leave us all behind :(

I love her a lot. But sometimes I just can't imagine marrying this woman. Is this normal?

    I understand your worries. If there's something in your mind telling you she's not marriage material, don't marry her. Sorry to say, but I'm dating someone with a bad temper, and I can't see him as marriage material anymore either. I've decided to continue dating him though, and see where it goes. Marriage is out of the question though.

    Yes, you have a legitimate concern. Although I do think it depends entirely on the individual and some people may attempt once but never again for the rest of their lives.
