He'd go so far as to kill himself if you leave, but he won't make any changes?

At the time I was having other problems too, he was obsessed with touching my bum, it was a constant, every day thing.

If he's not willing to make any effort to salvage the relationship, I think you have two choices: You can resign yourself to being the sole support of a man who isn't willing to help himself, or you can end the relationship. If you really think he's going to kill himself, call 911 on your way out the door--and I mean that to be helpful, not snide. You cannot save this drowning man. All you can do is summon help for him, and then save yourself.
