Flameswin, you have to understand that when someone is that close to suicide, they've obviously got some very deep rooted problems that go years back, and I'd say they're likely even mentally unstable.
The problems this guy had to have been going thru could not have been fixed by whatever it was he had asked of you that day. Very best case scenario IMHO, if you had agreed, perhaps the suicide would have been delayed a day or 2. That doesn't fix anything.
Don't feel like it's your fault, your friend was at the end of the line, and when someone is that far gone they are usually pretty determined to end it.
