Abstract
Introduction: Modern relationship dynamics, influenced by factors such as social media, changing gender roles, and societal expectations, have given rise to unique challenges in understanding the intersection of love addiction and suicide risk. This introduction sets the stage for thoroughly examining existing research, highlighting the need to address this pressing issue and its potential implications for mental health interventions. Aim: This article analyzes contemporary relationships, revealing their potential link to increased vulnerability to suicidal thoughts in modern romantic relationships, fostering a nuanced understanding. Methodology: This study explores the relationship between love, affection, and suicidal tendencies using NCRB data and relevant literature. Contemporary relationship dynamics were examined, with case studies included for support. Studies were critically appraised for quality, ensuring robust conclusions on how emotional factors influence suicidal behavior in modern relationships. Result: NCRB data from 2020-2022 reveals a 4.5% rise in suicides due to 'Love Affairs,' contributing to a total of 170,924 suicides in 2022. This highlights the increasing impact of romantic relationships on mental health, particularly among young adults and minors. Conclusion: Contemporary relationships have become increasingly complex, with affection as both a source of joy and a potential risk factor for emotional distress. While affection fosters emotional support and connection, it can also increase vulnerability to psychological pain due to unreciprocated love, conflicts, or neglect. This study highlights the link between love addiction and suicidal tendencies, emphasizing the influence of digital communication on unrealistic expectations. It calls for collaborative efforts among mental health professionals, educators, and policymakers to raise awareness and promote healthier relationship norms and coping mechanisms.
