    I would rather live a short, meaningful life then a long meaningless one.

      It's not meaningless if you become wise and smart to help humanity. Or have a chance of climbing Mt. Everest. Several times.

      Personally, I chose love, but I don't think a long life is meaningless.

    Wouldn't you get bored with life after say, 1287 years? "Let's go to Vegas!" "Been there 680 times" "How about we climb Mt Everest?" "My last 6 medals suffice just fine." See? After so long, there is nothing left to do! And furthermore, after at most 100 years you get the old, experienced, wise mentality which says, "nothing exterior is important in life. It's all about true love." :)

      Maybe all the things you can DO are limited

      But all the things you can LEARN are limitless

      I don't think so because the earth will change and there will be more things to encounter BUT nevertheless it would be terrible to live without LOVE!

      Things to do arise more quickly than they can be done. For example video games alone are created more quickly than one can complete them all. Similarly if you travel around the world visiting every country, by the time you finish all of them will have changed enough to warant a revisit.

    After you die, it won't matter that you were ever in love.
    Live forever.

    Live forever easily. I'd see the world evolve like no human has ever before. All the advancements, all the technology, the continents coming back together, musical changes, gaming advances, space travel, and so much more I can't think of, it's just unimaginable how much knowlegde and experience I'd get. So much better than anything a partner until death could ever provide. That being said, I'd take immortality any day over our petty 75 year average lifespan anyday.

    Forever. Love is amazing I'm sure, but think of all you can do even without it! You could do so much to benefit humanity =) As wonderful as I'm sure love is, you can give your life a meaning beyond it.

    You can get love of some kind everywhere... you can't get immortality, though.

    I'd like to be semi-immortal, though (i.e. The only way I could die is if I killed myself. No other external forces of any kind would be able to stop me). That way, if I got REALLY bored of doing and seeing everything, I could just top myself when done and go out under my own steam.

    Easy.

  • Live forever. Love today is a three year relationship with divorce payments and fights on top.

      But the choice is "perfect love", so presumably that'd last a lifetime without passion fizzling or conflict settling in. Or whatever situation is ideal for you. Your choice though.

      It's an easy decision for me. Even if I was choosing between just mortality and immortality, I'd still pick mortality. The finite nature of life and beauty appeals to me, really. Perfect love ain't bad either.

      • I guess we just have different opinions. I'd be happy to give up perfect love for immortality, it means I can experience everything else except perfect love.

        I've just always had a facination of immortality.

      Sometimes I lose hope in humanity. So many failed relationships...

    also, i wonder if by love, do they mean just romantic love, or would the immortal person be a Sociopath that cant even feel any love from friends,family, or any kind of love from anything whatsoever.

    also, they would probably have no sex drive whatsoever.

    sounds really boring now, doesnt it ?

    Infinite life does sound tempting, especially considering how scary the experience of death is for me, but like Wowbagger-the-indefinetly-prolonged, after so many years of loveless life, I would be extremely bored and would grow jealous at the mortal life forms out there. well,

    laughing at every intelligent being in alphabetical order could occupy my time:p
    Still, i would have to go with love.

    Neither. I've loved and it hurt, I've lived and it hurt.

      I choose love because I have found someone very special to me that life would be meaningless to not have her in my life :)

  • I guess the quality of a life is greater than quantity but there's more to life than love.

    Love.
    Living forever wouldn't be nice at all if you watched all of your family members, friends and aquaintances die as you continue to live. im sure it would take a toll on not only your mental state but your deeper level of consciousness as well. There is a reason we don't live forever.. if you really put thought into it, it would be more of a burden than anything.

      Ahhh thats something to think about. If I lived forever there would be a lot a DiscoDuck's running around the Earth. Surely I would probably screw millions of women over time. I might have to eventually get fixed so I wouldn't end up screwing one of my own relatives.

        That would stink if she found out before you.
