Would you like to live forever?

I would actually enjoy seeing how the planets technology shapes.
Exploring into space.
What ships they would actually design & use.
What ways they would try to terraform a planet.
Seeing if they is actually any creatures in space?
ETC.

nope

No, because why would I want to keep suffering on this earth for all eternity when I can finally be at peace when I die? I believe in an afterlife, but even if you don't, you can't deny that even nothingness is more peaceful than what this life has to offer.

PS - Please don't interpret this post to mean that I am suicidal. I'm not; all I'm saying is that I'm not afraid to die.

Since I'm afraid to die, yes.

I would not think you are suicidal.
Technically they is a time when suicidal, is actually a good thing.
Sometimes it is needed to face something that is at odds of not winning.
But you push forward Like a Flame Arrow piecing forward.
Charging at it with all your heart.
With a sound, clear, mindset.
Well if you lived forever among people, you would not really be alone if they accept you.

Right now I think your too busy thinking "Isolation", that you currently might be in.
That would not be so, if you change peoples hearts to accept you.
With open hands showing that your not a threat.
And accepting peoples differences & saying "I am ok with you been different from me".

Meh, I'd like my life to end eventually, but if it drags out for a long time I don't think I could be happy unless it did end.

Not that I'm suicidal, of course.

{ // too young for me, but as an example.

Guess you have never had a shy guy "MakaylaTheAspie".
Like me, you be too busy feeling like your flying.
& you would not want this moment to end.
As I held you tight in my arms.
As you felt the warmth of me against your skin.
And a static charge as our lips touch gentle together.
As you feel a sensation running down you.

You would never want this moment to end .
As we head off on adventures together.

Definitely not. How long would it be before I've done everything I've ever wanted to do, see everything I've ever wanted to see, etc. I probably wouldn't be able to enjoy eating anymore. It'd just be something I'd do just because, not because I enjoy what I'm eating. Probably the only novelty in my life would be my surprise at just how more intense boredom can become with each day.

No, that sounds like some kind of horrible sentence for a crime. I'm scared of death but I think the idea of living forever scares me more.

Not forever, but I would like to live for more than one lifetime. There's so many things and lifestyles I would like to try if I wasn't limited by time.

If this post is directed at me, then wow. The part about me being a flame arrow and charging forward with all my heart and having a clear mindset is very flattering. Thank you.

I don't feel isolated, as I have a loving family and a couple of friends, but I've been told multiple times that I "put up a wall" when I'm around other people. I think it does make them feel threatened.

I have to admit that I do have trouble letting people into my life if they don't share my opinion on my special interests or if they have different beliefs or lifestyles than I do. It's because I'm insecure and I worry that they must look down on me for the way I live my life and are secretly laughing at me behind my back, or that they will try to sway me into believing what they do.

Anyone read "Tuck Everlasting"?

Every time I hear the question "Can humans live forever?", I think "That means human evolution would pretty much stop because we'd have to stop having children. If people don't die, and we keep having children, the world population would skyrocket and we'd run out of natural resources."

Before modern medicine, the death rate due to injury and natural causes was relatively equal to the birth and child survival rate. So the population naturally fell into equilibrium with it's environment.

Medical advancement increased overall survival so the birth rate is higher than the death rate. And since we don't limit our reproduction, the population increases.

No not really and not unless I could stay a certain age.

Nope.

Nope. Not that I'm suicidal, but I want to eventually be at peace.
