And you seriously believe anyone can be that hateful? We're talking about a person's death here, not whether he got retrenched or beaten up. Anyone who's loved you once can't possibly be that bad, unless of course, you did something really terrible to him/her.Originally posted by StarPuppy:dun ever kill yourself for a person who no longer loves you...you think he/she will care? i think he/she will be laughing her head off at your funeral...i think they dun even give a hoot if u die or not..becuase you are no longer in their lifes...you are just a stranger/ "hi/bye friend"

Originally posted by Yunhaier:you should have tell him to watch soccer and supporter liverpoolAs I was rushing through my report, a shocking news came to me; someone I knew committed suicide and was hitting the front page of the evening chinese paper. The news came to me in a form of an SMS, a call and another reconfirmation SMS.
Much as I dread reading chinese characters, I left my office and headed straight down to buy a copy myself.
To cut the long story short, he committed suicide - probably due to love and relationship.
And my first reaction is like 'damn foolish!'
***It's saddening to hear somber stories of people surrendering their life, literally, in name of love - whether the form existed as factors of misery or love depression. It's somewhat insane having to spent so much resources nurturing someone, only to witness him killing himself over matters of the heart.
Rikki pasted this to me: [b]'If love fails, set yourself free, let your heart spread its wings and fly again. Remember you may find love and lose it, but when love dies, you never have to die with it'
I believe that some forumers might have flashing suicide thoughts - please note that your object of affection might be momentarily taken aback if you succeed in your attempt at suicide, but given some time, he/she will move on and your death becomes in vain. Dying is never a sacrifice in love; in fact, it's a blatant sign of defeat and emotional immaturity... a great ignominy if one define that as part of love boundaries because that's one extremely erroneous mindset.

Good and important point.Originally posted by _Aaron_:Everyone needs a 'safety net', so that when something happens to the person, he has a net to fall on, the protect him from falling too deep.
This 'safety net' can consist of close friends or relatives, that will come out at a moment's notice. Those that will take a cab down to wherever you are, whenever you say "I need company, please, come down", or "I need help..."
With a safety net a person will not be driven to impulses or flashing thoughts of suicide, which may be the conclusion of their negative thoughts under distress.
Truly, when one person starts to think too much when you're sad and alone, things rarely start to look up.
So guys, build and encourage others to build a safety net today... (though i must say there are few friends out there who can be relied on, so when you find one, do treasure them).
Oops, did i end up writing a 'how to prevent suicide from happening' topic or something? bleh.
As much as I could agree... Try not to make such an important life or death decision based on that short period of distorted reality...Originally posted by mistyblue:there are a lot more things that is going on in the mind to choose the path. To have hope is to suffer. Many times, it is through termination where the person choose to end all suffering and pain. It is not a normal mental state but to the person it is the only known relief. So that's the choice.
Not everyone is logical. Not everyone can be rational. There are many stupid decisions made each minute, most are not as harmful but some just have a harsher consequence.Originally posted by Devil1976:As much as I could agree...

THE MORIE HAS SPOKEN.Originally posted by dahliamorie:because there is no solution clear to them, they see suicide as a solution to end all their heartache, all the misery.
Of course, friends and family are the only things will prevent a person from committing suicide. But suppose there are those who have lousy friends and "always-too-busy" family members and are too shy to call any of the hotlines listed in this forum, then how?Originally posted by TerenceYYK:to all suicide wanna-bes, please remember that there is always hope in our lifes,love is not everything,i know a friend of mine who is bankrupt,wife n kids left him and he is at the point of killing himself,luckily my friends and me stopped him in time and he is back to the world happily married and working again. there will always be hope for everyone.
terence.
friends and family are not the only ones,ultimately,it is up to the individuals,just think abt it,if one has already made up their minds to commit suicide,even if we can stop him/her now,we can't stop him/her forever.what i'm trying to put across is that each one of us have to look at the positive side and not the negative factor.if each of us think it is the end,then it is the end. Think POSITIVE.Originally posted by SturmDerSchatten:Of course, friends and family are the only things will prevent a person from committing suicide.

A fair lady committed suicide when she was 15. Jump from flat. Her reason written on her letter she left behind stated that she feels inferior compared to her smart sister who was in University. In additional, she has relationship problem with her then bf.Originally posted by TerenceYYK:friends and family are not the only ones,ultimately,it is up to the individuals,just think abt it,if one has already made up their minds to commit suicide,even if we can stop him/her now,we can't stop him/her forever.what i'm trying to put across is that each one of us have to look at the positive side and not the negative factor.if each of us think it is the end,then it is the end.

Yup. Even logical and rational people make irrational decisions at times, least to say the less rational ones...Originally posted by mistyblue:Not everyone is logical. Not everyone can be rational.
