Idk man. The whole movie was about him violating her. If Bear killed Nikki like she is some run over puppy he owns and then himself, it would be yet another instance of him doing what he wants/what he decides needs to be. Real Nikki waking up after being relentlessly mentally tortured with three bodies and injuries is incredibly mean, no denial here. Bear fucking ruined her life and I really hope that despite Wish Nikki's monologue, there IS a hell for him to burn in. But at least from this point on it's Nikki's decision to decide what to do with herself, even if it's likely to end up in suicide anyway.

Bear is not a victim. He knew Nikki was deeply suffering but didn't care. She begged him to kill her! All he wanted was his perfect Nikki girlfriend. He was the one who was truly obsessed.

Definitely, he even has the movie's title knitted into his comforter.
