If we were to have eternal life...

...will you be loyal to one person?? First state if you consider yourself a loyal mate, and if you had eternal life, would you just stay with one person? I'll go first:

I consider myself loyal but I know myself too well, will get bored, I don't like to be in the same situation for too long, and if I had eternal life, I would not be loyal to one partner.Of course in this life is a different matter as we only have around 70-100years and I haven't even deducted the time before we know what love is.

I am curious to know the responses of Dxp users =)

I am a sag/cappy cusper btw..but I don't know if it has anything to do with astrology

So what is your position?

oh i forgot to input another factor into your consideration, we will not get old...like granny old. Lets say the oldest we get is 40 physically speaking.

Most people ask what they would do, or what kind of person time would make them were they to live forever. It would be more humoring to know why a person would want to live forever, instead of what they would do.

If we were to have eternal life...? Like the short life we currently have is so great??!! - luna, if I didn't like your avatar, I'd make you eat something round, metallic and automatic - very silently 😉

That said, to answer your question, I thought that was the aim of marriage ? To be loyal to one person for as long as you both shall live...but to be 40 forever, well we saw madonna at 40, we all gon look like that— YIKES !

@Duke, interesting...if I lived forever, its scary to think that I might learn everything and then there will be nothing new to learn or experience~ I doubt it be it could happen. No I don't want to live forever but I think 100 years is still short...theres just so much to do and accomplish..

@GB....LMAO!!!!!!!! and if you have only tauren kids, then we might need a couple more planets to feed you folks haha

@zenalchemy lol!! what you saying you don't want to feel much more dissapointment and sorrow over a longer period then now?? hehe but good point with Madonna...i don't want to look like her forever

I would not want to live forever, isnt Heaven suppose to be so much better than life on earth? BUT, if I had eternal life I would choose to live it with my loved ones who are alive and bring back those who have died. Sometimes friends and family can be better than a mate.

Id perhaps like to live a little longer than we do, but certainly NOT forever.

No, not loyal in the aspect you are meaning .. like sexual faithfulness. However, loyal, as in always trusting the judgement of a person to whom I do trust.

If we had eternal life in this one body ... I'd likely set limits on who I'd be with intimately .. like say, 20 years.

I'd love the idea of immortality. I'd probably be too busy trying to save the world. So not being in a relationship wouldn't bother me for a while but then the loneliness would probably kick in in a couple centuries. Maybe 5 centuries for me, who knows. I'd probably be loyal to one person but then again it's not like they're immortal too. It actually depends on the person. Unless it's like Highlander and you have to go around chopping people's heads off and gaining The Quickening over and over until there can only be one. That would be sweet. I love Highlander.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! It would be a vicious cycle of violence but sure why not. Funny thing is I bet the world is run the same way right now. All we have to do is get our feet in the door and we can begin complete domination lol.

depressed, that's deep boi

okay....well barring the choice of whether or not to live forever and the multitude of things one could do with eternity....striclty speaking of love and relationships - yes I'd be happy with the same person for all eternity.

But then again I'm a taurus 🙂 we are some stubborn MFers..... stubborn minds stubborn hearts.... it takes a lot to kill our love.

Angel! why are you depressed?
Would you like to take me out for "Walkies"?
Ill go get my leash "Woof Woof"

hmmmm...that depends on two things:

1.) whether they were mortal or not
2.) whether i judged them to be worth my literally undying loyalty

if they were not mortal, and i judged them to be worth my loyalty, then i would be loyal to them as long as they were alive. even when they were old and wrinkly. and i would mourn them for quite a while, probably like 50 years, maybe more if they were really amazing. but i firmly believe that time heals all wounds, and eventually i would crave that type of companionship again. so i wouldn't forget them, but i can say with reasonable certainty that i would want to be with someone else eventually. if respecting and cherishing their memory counts as loyalty, then i could not only be loyal to one person forever, but as many people as i had ever loved.

as for if they were immortal and worth my loyalty...then yes, i could love and be loyal to the same person forever.

srsly. 😛

Who said I was depressed?

Sorry xangelfish - you never depress me :-)

I meant "Depressed Angel"
