So I met up with my ex..

Almost 2 months after she broke my heart, I met up with her. She dumped me cause she was scared of hurting me, but we met up. She broke up with me after a year and a half, and she has been telling me how depressed she is. We met up and talked, and then we kissed, and it was great (or at least I thought so), but then she pulled away and started breaking down. She started crying and saying how ever day she wishes she was dead, and how she holds a knife to her heart every day wanting to die. I ask her whats wrong and she says she needs to work on herself. I think she is very depressed, and I suggested going to the doctor but she is very much against it. i really want her back, but she has been having emotional breakdowns lately, so bad that she cant even walk. What should I do? It hurt me so much to kiss her and then realise she isnt ready to take me back...

I truly think you should be more worried about her right now than your own broken heart - she needs help!!!! Can you get her to counselling or something?

No. I have tried. I have even said we could both go together, but she is completely against it. And I don't wanna go to her family because of the sheer awkwardness it would create. She dumped me..

I think you need to let her deal with her own life. She had you, and all the support you were willing to give, but she threw it away. Needing you because she is having a hard time is not fair to you. I disagree with the above post - you should think of yourself.

If you did everything you could for her, what more is there left? It's time to look after number one and that is you. Sounds selfish, but she doesn't want your help or that of a professional, then you have no choice but to back away.

I agree with Captain34, take care of yourself because no one else will.

Unfortunately, I agree that she broke up with you because she is not interested in having your companionship, thereforeeee she needs to realize that also involves the support that you provide. She initiated it, she must learn to deal with consequences. I hate that attitude that I am posing, but it is the reality. Good luck.
