His way of getting attention, suicide...

We received a text message last time from my friend who wants to commit suicide. We called him but he doesn't give a ****in' answer. Few days came and we haven't got any message from him. From the bottom of my heart, I really thought that he's dead. Yesterday, I saw him-we all saw him. He looks happy and I can honestly say that I don't like what he did. We've been worried for him. I can't even sleep at night. I can't believe that we became friends and he was like that. I don't know what his problem but I guess he seeks much attention.

In fact he is fine I think this a cruel joke and or attention getter as this is not a laughing matter. He should be told something to assure he understands that doing this to someone like yourself is cruel. What if someday he is truly in trouble, people will not respond and he will be left alone to depression and or worst. I find this awful and heartless on his behalf.

I'm glad you understand my side hardworkinggirl. I was really thinking that he was so serious about it.

That truly is a bad thing he did as what if someone one day was really serious it would make me think twice before caring. Sort of an abuse on his part.

Ever heard of the boy who cried wolf? He's just like the boy in the story. It's plain selfishness on his side, he doesn't care about others and just say anything he likes and makes other people waste unnnecessary energy just because he threatened to kill himself.

Hi Marie, don't need to feel awful. This is part and parcel of life. LOL, I'm sorry to make you feel more awful, but then, remember, this is life. Bad things happen to make you stronger and to be more wary of certain people.

Yeah! Now, I know what kind of personalities my friends do have. It could be a weakness on his part and ours to, but I hope that he won't do it again.

Now, it sounded much awful. I never knew how crucial things was until I received all your comments. I'm beginning to realize how unfortunate I am to be his friend.

he may have some form of manic-depression. which would explain the happy after the sad. he needs to get help immedietly.

Why would he do something like this? He is obviously seeking attention. You should ask him why he did that and how much it scared you.

Would he think that I was just so into him? From the moment that we first met right after he texted us, he never showed.

That was very unfair of him. Did you try telling him that you all were worried? He should feel guilty of what he did and say sorry to you all. I feel he will again come up with another drama soon.

hello elsmarie! that was a mean thing for him to do, putting you all under constant worry about his situation and all the while he's just fine. at least, he could have the decency of calling you and telling you that he's fine and is already out of that "situation". if he recognize you as his friends, he would not have place you undue worry.

You're right deriellevc73. I thought he was a friend to me. All he did was hurt us.

Those kind of people are selfish and self-centered. They do not bother who are freaking out and worried to them. I just hate it too when that happened to me. You got worried and they do not even explain why or even apologize.

You're so much right maean. Even if he is telling the truth, he should confront me and apologize.

There must be something wrong with because a normal person would not do that. As a friend you should never make someone else worry for you just for the fun of it or just for attention. You should try and talk to him and try to know if he has a problem but it he just did that for no apparent reason its better you don't think of him as much of a friend.

Yah... If he's doing it for fun, I can honestly say that I will be angry at him and I won't care for him at all.
