Immortality decision

[plad101]

i'd rather put myself through the burden of living to the end of the universe than have my friends do it

Plus I've always wanted to see the world end

imagine getting aids and then not being able to die from it and just giving millions and millions of people aids throughout eternity

If you've got a sunny disposition I think you could make immortality work for yourself.

And to be honest, I would just be happy knowing I have all the time in the world to do whatever I need to do.
If I'm immortal (and bonus if I don't feel pain or can't be seriously harmed, although this hasn't been said), then I have no worries with taking several years off from life to just travel the world.

Or looking at a hobby I've never done, or had the opportunity to do, and just doing it.

You can feel pain but any harm (like losing a leg) would heal back instantly

Everyone saying neither has proven they can't read

Dude. You edited your OP after people started saying neither, lmfao.

so if I can't be permanently injured then I would choose to be immortal. I don't think there are any real downsides
I could literally be a superhero as long as people are still around
and if everyone else dies in like a nuclear war or something, I can stick around until the next intelligent race pops up, then I can be like their god king or something and help them do all the cool stuff we did, a lot sooner. and if something happened to our planet, like it just frickin blew up, or something, I could just float around in space until I fall onto another planet or asteroid or moon or something. then wait for it to explode or for life to show up on it too
it sounds like a lot of fun to me. but like, let's say the universe "ends" or whatever, then what? like if the "big crunch" happens, what happens to me?

Nice.
Because my biggest worry was that I am an idiot and I wander somewhere dangerous, like Somalia or Syria, and I get captured and they chop my head off, and I spend the rest of my eternal life as a head dropped in the sand.

If I was immortal I'd probably run into chernobyl and soak up all that sweet sweet radiation.

Well the downside would be you let your friends die

and to answer the question you would be stuck between multiverses

[Foxscotch]

Well the downside would be you let your friends die

okay. they'd have ended up dying anyway. at least in this case we still get to have a full lifetime of friendship, while if I chose them, yeah they'd get to live forever, but I'd die sooner

and more questions
what do you mean by friend? because if partners aren't included and it just goes straight to regular friendships then that's not even that big of an issue anyway
and what does half your lifetime mean? are we assuming that we're all destined to die at a specific time, and then when this happens it just gets halved? because in that case, let's say I was destined to die two years from now in a car accident, wouldn't I die as soon as I decided to make my friend immortal, since I'd have already passed that middle point?

Better my friends living than me.
