hello there! i really don't like people who have such mindsets about this kinds of events in their lives. they don't have the right to end up their lives just because they have failed in their relationships. it's not right thing to do. cause our life is a gift from God above.we should be happy and live life how it has to be. we may fail in some things but it doesn't mean we have the right to end up our lives just as that. there are problems in life we have to face and learn that those problems are just challenges to make us stronger person.

yes i too ... I dont think there is no problem int he world that is big enough to kill yourself. Because as you said life is a gift given by god it has to end on its own no body has right to destroy it themselves... nice comments dear.....

Killing yourself over romantic love is simply a waste of life. Why would you end your life over such a thing. If your parents don't accept it and it is important to you to be with that person then then go to a country where it is acceptable to marry for love or work harder to convince your parents, don't kill yourself over it. If it is so important to kill yourself over then certainly it is important enough to defy your parents. Killing yourself over someone you love who does not love you back is also very stupid. Just because that person does not love you it does not mean that there is not someone you have not met yet who you will love and who will love you back. Don't kill yourself, if you do you may miss out on the one you are truly suppossed to be with. Killing oneself is a sin and a waste of the life that God gave you.

I think people need more help and it's not really something I would consider. It's surely a sign of the time however, I do think that when a relationship breaks down both parties should be respectful of each other to avoid ill feelings. I know most people won't be friends after but there's no need for have of this petty stuff that you often read about. It's very saddening when someone does this.

I'm a prolife, so my stand would be no of course. If love fails, well I believe there's still hope for everyone as long as you learn to move on. As long as one believes that a failure is a lesson for a person to learn. For people who lost hope, who thinks that life is unfair, well they have no right to take their lives because we owe it to God.

Until now I do not understand the intent of those who do crazy things like that, they are looking for sensation? I think not, they have a variety of reasons depending on the type of problems they love. Mentally weak, I think it's the right word, but not too exactly 100%, because the evidence is still there are people who really seek the attention of someone who has rejected his feelings of love.

wow crazy much the logical thing would be to lie to your parents like i did not kill your self or better yet run away and not kill your self but still did i say not kill your self try anything but killing your self.

As a Zen practitioner, I live with the idea that there is nothing that we cannot handle in life and that it is my job to fully experience anything that I go through. I live with the precept of "no killing" and that includes one's self. It is a challenge and a discipline and as a human being with my feelings and emotions, I do not always get it right. In fact, this is not the way of Zen. All is to be accepted even things do not feel "right". Those are the things that our soul needs to learn from. Therefore I do wish to take the life away that my soul has come to learn from. I do my best not to judge others and the decisions that they make because it is impossible for me to live in their life. Tolerance and forgiveness is the key in my life. It is not always easy to practice, but I continue to make the effort to experience everything there is to experience in a neutral state of mind. _Derek

I don't know why people think that love is the ultimate and are willing to kill themselves if it doesn't work out. I've had tons of girlfriends and even had to get married a second time but I didn't think I would need to kill myself to get the attention of the one I loved. Who thinks like this? If you die how will you ever get the one you love?

id rather taste my heartaches and swallow my pride than to kill myself though i love this person so much. if i get hurt, i would sit quietly in a corner badly broken inside or i would lie in bed quietly the whole day shedding my tears without saying a word. or i would get drunk with my friends in a club and go home in a staggering gait. give space and time for the pains, heartaches, emotional wounds in order to heal. it will gradually heal in time and leave scars too. i better move on and find someone new.

I, myself is in a relationship that is not accepted by our parents. for the sole reason that i am not chinese and he's pure chinese. anyway, point here is that killing yourself wont solve and end anything for you. once this deed is committed a new sort of burden is being let out in this world. too much negativity is bad. be happy :) eventually, love will conquer all :)
