I'm going out on a limb and saying someone who's openly researching ways to kill himself and involving his girlfriend isn't exactly innocent here.

As someone who had a relationship where suicide was threatened, it is one of the most fricked up things you can do to a person. Those moments of time between someone threatening suicide and responding to say they aren't going to do it are some of the longest things on the planet, and terrifying. Do I call the cops? Do I call EMS? No, she's just joking/attention seeking, or is she? If I call in the Calvary and it turns out she was just joking, will I get in trouble? frick, frick, frick she's not responding. Oh my god did she do it? frick.
