So basically, we're in the process of taking our exams. I've picked up a HB10 in mine and everyone else's eyes (i've been congratulated many times by the other guys who failed) but I found out she's very insecure and shy. Anyway, due to our exams, we're all stressed out, depressed, and miserable. Lately my girlfriend's just been saying "I just want to jump off a cliff". The first time was funny. I laughed it off. Then the second time was slightly amusing... but the fifth.. sixth... what am i supposed to say?? I've tried laughing it off, I've tried being stern with her, telling her not to say that, I've tried ignoring... I'm out of ideas. Any suggestions?

* as a side note, there's no way she'd actually jump off a cliff. just for all you guys who thought we were a pack of emos

Find out what is wrong, if you can help her change the situation that has her down. If not i suggest you get some professional help.

I had a similar situation, i took it as a joke and the girl killed herself. I thought she would never do it, but i was wrong. Always better to be safe than sorry mate.

Wow dude that's harsh. I can't even begin to imagine the pain you went through.

Anyway I know why she's feeling down; like I said we got exams. She mentioned jumping off a cliff again today after we all failed a hard exam... Again I told her I don't like it when she says that. Then I froze her out for a bit, and started flirting with another hot girl. It was quite amusing watching her try to get my attention back again.I'm such a good boyfriend

Anyone else got any suggestions on this matter?
