Hi Symphony,

Hi Symphony,

From what I have read here I don't think the man has the guts to kill himself.  Maybe I am a bit hard at times, but what I would do is the next time he threatens to--I would simply say, "Go ahead, I will gladly come to your funeral.  But you have tried to manipulate me long enough, and our son will be much better off without you in his life anyway."  Probably those exact words and defintely something real close to that--if that didn't get his attention nothing would.

Take care,

Damon

I found myself in a similar situation years ago.  It's not easy to deal with by no means and you have to find the way that works best for you. I ended up ignoring the calls and messages and slowly he stopped.  It took a while for me to see that there were reasons we broke up. Cheers and good luck.

Don't give him the power over your life anymore.
Let him threaten all he wants. You deserve to be HAPPY and to have a life without mind games and abuse. Just remember you deserve more than he will EVER give you!

Falling in and falling out of love takes time.  Don't rush too quickly, be sure, and in the meantime stop and smell the roses.

as soon as he finds someone else he will leave you alone - hope it's sooner rather than later.

Your ex does not have all his oars in the water. He is coning you. When he tells you he is going to kill himself give him a help line number. Tell him to get over it. Get well, grow up and just because you have a child together you will not tolerate his stuff any more. He has messed up your life enough already, don't you think?

That is a tough one. Good luck trying to find the answers!
A smile and few roses from me and Bo =^..^= the wonder dog!

Oh dear Symph...I am the wrong person to ask that question to...I think letting the ex go was probably for the best though considering the history...Glad you have met someone else~

First of all, you made the right decision, 100% to get away from him
second of all, it might be that your son is no longer safe to be around your ex. Perhaps you need to file a restraining order and cut off all communication with him and go to court to get sole custody of your son, at least temporarily until he stops with the abusive behavior.

If a person has mental problems, it is unlikely he can change a lot even with the aid of psychiatric medication. Take care.

Your ex is obviously playing mind games with you
your reaction feeds his action; at some point he will realise he cannot manipulate you any more; if I were you dear Lady, I would get on with my life with the new relationship and with ignoring his behaviour.  Should he carry out his threat (and I doubt very much if he will) it will in no way be down to you - this is moral blackmail and deserves to be totally ignored.  Good luck and God bless
