I don ' t know if a PPO extends to you ' re friends or not but they can file restraints . Do NOT contact him again . Every time you do contact him it ' s a little victory for him and tells him this behavior gets him what he wants . Instead call the police and let them know he is suicidal and he is at such and such and address and threatening to kill himself . Let them deal with it . If it takes 17 calls and him calling your friends to have you contact him that tells him if he calls you multiple times and contacts your friends then you will call him which is rewarding his behavior . Even if you yell him to Fuck off you ' re STILL giving him attention and even if it ' s negative attention . Even better have your friends also have a united front and tell him they aren ' t going to play his games . If he does make good on his threats it ' s NOT your fault . Usually people who do this stop quickly if you don ' t give them what they want . An ex did this to me after he cheated and I left him and had his MOM call and asked me to talk to him because he said he would kill himself if I didn ' t . I set some strong boundaries . I felt like an asshole and explained to her he cheated on me and if he was really going to kill himself I would call the police to help him and make sure he was safe , but I wasn ' t going to talk to him and I was sorry he was depressed . and you know how many times after that he called and pulled that shit ? Never .
