Loneliness. I think being immortal would show someone what true Loneliness is
Read this on the largest number every used in a mathematical proof.
Then ask yourself, if you think you could handle this number in microseconds let alone an eternity
LoL investing and compounding! I literally have all the time in the world.
Idk id be super depressed if I was able to experience my family, friends, family's children, and so on die.
i think that experiencing all the things & people i care about would be the worst of it.
either that or seeing us repeat history over and over again as a society complete with all of the indifferent cruelties it entails and studying it, but ignoring it anyways
Everyone else in your life that isn't immoral (if you're the only one who is) dies eventually, so every time you make a friend or start a family, you do so knowing that you will have to watch them all die someday.
Wow you're a real smart one, nobody has ever thought about that. Read the Question in the title again.
