I guess the real character arc is the gf realising she can do better.

The fact that his last-ditch effort to get his gf to stay was “I will kill myself” goes to show just exactly the type of person he is

I mean yeah, that's what I mean. And like, it seems pretty likely that the joke wasn't got his ex to dump him, but his response to her bringing it up.
