When a person regularly threatens suicide in order to keep their partners from leaving or going against their wishes, it can be considered a form of emotional abuse. As the National Domestic Violence Hotline explains, the person is “trying to manipulate you by playing on your feelings of love and fear for them.” The organization goes on to explain that “if your partner often says they’re going to kill themselves when things aren’t going their way, they’re not showing you love – they’re likely trying to control your actions.”
