Best Answer

Tell someone. You alone cannot help this person, don't kid yourself into believing that you will be able to save them. If this person has trusted someone with their desire to kill themselves, they are most likely doubting their own intentions, and are unsure if they actually want to. By telling someone who is more qualified to handle a situation like this, you are not endangering their life, simply because they are not prepared yet. However make sure that the person you tell is able to handle the situation. Often times the parent of said individual will be too emotional to handle the situation appropriately, if possible you should contact a counselor.

Most importantly though, tell someone. Anyone. What is more important to you, a promise? Or the safety of your friend?

Always get them help I agree. But sometimes situations are different and even counselors want this person gone, lies hate games money power and crimes committed against would cause this to happen without anyone getting to involved
