i am so sorry about your friend. and i know how you feel. i would die if my husband killed himself over me. but also remember. his problems also lay deeper than just you leaving.

I'm scared. A friend of mine took his own life 2 days ago. He drank , he was going through a nasty divorce and all the time he told me that he never wanted to live without his wife and how much it hurt him when she left. My fear is that my husband may do the same thing. I know he loves me in his own way and he is very very dependent on me regarding every aspect of his life, I dont want to hurt him but i cant stay with him anymore, the only that has kept me there with him is that i feel sorry for him.
