Sex is an activity, but it is not life. If your friend is trying to commit suicide because he has not had sex in four years, then obviously there is something deeper. I will say that the suicidal attempts are not due to the lack of sex, because it really just does not make sense. I have never had sex and I would never want to kill myself.

So to answer your question: No, it is not normal to be suicidal over lack of sex, and advice that I can give him would be to go see a psychiatrist a.s.a.p.

Advice that I can give you would be to use a dictionary or spell check, for the reason that when people spell things wrong, they look like idiots....
well in all honesty if you was that bothered about your friend trying to commit suicide due to the lack of sex, you'd fuck him/her?

it is rather sad though that somebody can be lead to sucj stupidity because of the lack of sex. sex is the ultimate act of love even though so many people have sex as recreation, it is still the ultimate act of love for another person

your friend shouldnt be suicidal because of a lack of sex, mant people go for much longer periods without sex...

might i ask who was the last person he/she had sex with?

what the hell? my friend isn't gay

I don't know anyone who has went for 4 years without sex (except my friend)

and you wouldn't know her so why does it matter?
Does she have incredibly high standards or something? So 4 years ago she was sexually active right? There must be some antecedent surrounding this situation. You would have to think harder about it and talk to your friend to find out why she not been able to connect with anyone intimately. While the desire for physical pleasure can be strong, it is unlikely that is the sole reason for driving someone to suicide. It would seem it's more on the level of being lonely and lack of an emotional connection with a lover. The depression that follows can further compound the problem and make connecting with people even harder. I would recommend that she see a therapist that can help your friend to build up her self worth and give her new ideas on how to meet and connect with potential mates.
Maybe it's not the lack of sex but the lack of a relationship. Sex is a way to connect with someone and when you don't have that life can become very lonely. You may have friends and family around but at the end of the day you're still going to sleep alone.

It might be a good idea to try and set them up with someone.

nvm about that last comment i figured out how to hide my revealing comment ^_^ this is it...as anonymous :D

no HE doesn't have incredibly high standards but it seems as though other people do they would rather have sex with anyone but him and your right it could be due to the lack of relationship because he does feel very lonely but its hard for him to find women who wouldn't rather run off with the guy sitting across the room
shit man get him help thats not right or get him laid do something dude
You DO NOT know for a fact that sexual deprivation is the cause of your friend's suicidal tendencies. If you want to be a REAL friend, transcend your immature ignorance, and get in touch with a professional who can help your friend. You can get started by calling a suicide hot line and telling them the story - it's free. Professional help might keep your friend alive long enough to get his head together to the point where he can start getting the sex he wants.
I'm so confused is this friend a
male or female? Regardless
get them some help! any how you
possible can, Voluntary or Involuntary
Step up now! I know I lost my
best friend over Thing's like
this & Quit bickering on this!
Your friend life Is at stake!
Act now !
If you are a female why dont you give him some sex and save his life!

If you are a guy find some slut to give him some sex and save his life!

But if he thinks its bad now he had better not get married. Not having sex is one thing when a female is not always in your presence, but not having sex when a female is always around is a killer...no pun intended. Its like having a refrigerator full of food that you can rarely eat if ever. If I have to starve then I'd rather it be with no food around.
since im a guy and shes a girl i mite not be to acurate but i would say just keep living life and the rite person will stumble into u!
As mentioned above a few times, Sex is a part of life, not life in general.

If he's not had sex in 4 years and he's tried to commit suicide there's definately something else that's bringing him to the stage of wanting to end his own life.

He needs some help a.s.a.p
If you want to be a good friend, help him through this phase in his life and he'll come out of the other side stronger than ever.
This person is very depressed if attempting suicide & I think helping them get medical attention is critical rather than picking at the distorted reasoning of a person who is ill.
the answer lies in the question
Maybe the lack of sex is a symptom of something bigger. Whatever you do, tell his family about this. This is not something to take lightly. If he has attempted, he's not far from completing. Your friend needs help and I hope you at least tell his parents/family.
tell him to try never having sex in his 31 year old life like me!!
how am i supposed to feel?
no, seriously, your friend must be depressed over life in general....whatever the case, your friend needs professional help.
how long ago did he try to commit suicide?
this might happen again.
he must get help emmediately!!
I havent had sex for 12 years,doesnt bother me at all.
maybe your friend should seek help. suicide is nothing to play with. i hope everything turns out okay
I've never committed suicide for lack of sex. Not that I can remember. I went for almost two weeks without it. Oh wait.....I committed suicide that time.
You are hilarious dude
