Personally, I wouldn't like to be immortal. Seeing my family and friends die around me would just destroy me. Plus, I think I'd just get bored of life. I find immortality interesting though as some friends would like to be immortal as they can see how things change. However, they all said they'd eventually get bored too. I would only like to be immortal if my friends and family were.
It's quite an interesting topic.
Perhaps but giving that you were an "on/off switch" person like myself you could easily close down the sadness of watching people die. Think about it, you could easily move away and start a new life and meet new people and such. Maybe make some enemies as well? Giving that we're discussing immortality I'm sure there would be other who are also immortal?
I get what you mean. If I had the ability to move from country to country I wouldn't mind being immortal, starting fresh would be good.
