Tell him he shouldn't. Ask why. Tell him he's an important part of your life, and that even if life isn't the best, at least they have a friend in you.

My friend created this list last week of reasons why not to do it.

  1. Your family will miss you
  2. Your friends will miss your jokes
  3. Your friends would struggle in school
  4. Your family would mourn day and night
  5. Your friends would cry themselves to sleep every night
  6. Your friends would be sad
  7. You would regret death
  8. You would miss video games
  9. You would miss music
  10. You are one of a kind
  11. You might inspire someone in the future
  12. People wont be able to celebrate your birthday
  13. Inside jokes would not be inside jokes without you
  14. Orgasms
  15. You would miss hot showers
  16. The world would be dull without you
  17. Your absence would widen a hole in your friends' hearts
  18. Su!cide causes pain; it doesn't end it
  19. You could be moments from finding your soulmate
  20. Your pets would miss you
  21. The world would be worse without you

Also call 988 or 911

Ask them why they think suicide is a good idea. Then let them know how you would feel if they were no longer alive and tell them how you think their other friends and family would feel. Tell them that suicide doesn't fix things, it only makes things worse.

Notify the proper authorities, Suicide is considered a crime. If I heard that a friend was contemplating murder, I'd let someone know.

Thank you everyone (especially altZany) I've talked to him about it he hasn't talked about this much I should still keep an eye on him though to make sure he doesn't try to strangle himself or attempt suicide is some other way.

Spend a lot more time on them. Don't mention suicide.
Make them depend on you and always look forward to the next time you encounter. Show them wonderful things, juicy secrets, art, etc.
Make them realize they need you and wouldn't want to lose you
