<human>: After a month of no contact with my ex, he chooses today to "check up" on me. When I didn't reply for a few hours he sent me a text talking about how everyone ignores him and how he won't be bothering me or anyone else again, that he'll be gone forever, goodbye, etc etc

There was one episode where he wanted to walk out into traffic when we were together because he thought I was going to leave him, but I'm not sure he would have done it, even if I hadnt been there to stop it.

We both contributed to it ending, though he takes no responsibility for his part. He only blamed me. He became abusive at the end of it (mostly emotional/verbal, slight physical) and I've been trying to distance myself from all the pain. But I still feel a bit of responsibility to reach out and try to help.

Has anyone been in this situation? We were no good for each other, I know that. He was very evil to me in the past. I ignored him, but I'm scared for his life. 

I wonder if it's just because it's valentines day? He says he hates his life and is tired of being alone. But shoot, if being single for a month and a half is too much for him, it IS going to be a rough life. 

Anyone have any suggestions? I don't want to get sucked back in, but I don't want to hear that something bad happened to him either.

Provide a brief overview of the text.
<bot>: what do you do when your ex is telling you they might do something that will hurt them but you really don't want to get sucked back in to their crap?
