Tell him how much you love him and hug him a lot. Are his parents understanding people? If so I would ask him if he would feel comfortable discussing this with his parents and you in the same room. The more people that love him the better.
He does need help though.

I don't have much respect for the people who try to kill themselves. What I do know is that if he was really going to, no one's going to know about it and the fact he is talking about it means he's looking for help and trying to get better (a positive thing).

He will be fine and has resorted to "i want to kill myself" for attention (sounds cruel but hear me out). Why do girls ask if they're fat? To get re-enforced that they are indeed still attractive in spite of their own judgment. He just wants to feel better about himself and his future. Give that to him (emotional support).

Now here's the next step, DOING SOMETHING ABOUT IT.

1. You're fat: Gym / diet
2. You're
3. Pimples: wash your face
4. You're depressed and want to kill yourself: find support, figure out why you're depressed and do something about it. If it didn't work, try another point of attack.

Everyone gets depressed and the thought of suicide has crossed everyone's minds.

Thats called EMO.

Listen hunny, you need to get your boyfriend some serious help, killing urself isn't a joke and him uttering those words isn't a joke either. You either tell someone, get him help or sit back and watch him kill himself wut more could you want. If you truly care for him then you will get him some help otherwise you will be considered a part of his crime.

You would just leave me behind like that? Do you even care that I'll still be hear missing you? That should work. ....If he cares enough.

First, get the hell off of these boards and talk to his parents and a professional. There is very little you can do to "talk someone out of killing themselves." Your boyfriend needs help and if you really want to help him, you will put him above yourself. By that, I mean take the risk and tell his parents or another trusted adult. He'll be furious with you but he'll get over it with time. Again, you can't fix this. He can't fix this alone. He needs professional help.

This is a big problem for a young person to deal with so don't take it on alone.

If you don't listen to me and others and refuse to talk to an adult, then try reminding him that whatever is bothering him now will no longer exist 10 years from now and it's not worth dying for. Ironically, suicide is often driven by revenge. If he says things that are bitter or resentful then he's likely pissed off at others and wants to ruin their lives like they ruined his. Remind him that it's his life he's ruining. They will continue to breathe and get over the pain.

If it isn't just one thing in particular or an event but rather an overwhelming feeling, he likely needs medication to even out his moods. Millions of people take medicane to control depression so it's nothing to be afraid of or ashamed of.

Value his life over yourself and your relationship and do the right thing - get him help.

Try to show him the good in his life. Like your love for him. Show him how much you care for him and how much you want him to be in your life. It also wouldn't hurt to pray for him as well.

Yes, treat us equal in every way, even if it causes us problems

No, we should get equality when we want it, but preferential treatment other times.
