If you were really old and married and in love, whom would you want to die first?

You or him/her ?
 
I want him to go first so I can have the bed all to myself. And pee with the bathroom door open. :eek:
 
If it came to that, I'd rather have to live with out her, than her have to live without me.
 
I would want us to die together, then neither of us would have to suffer a broken heart!

:(

I agree with you here Vivacia!
 
Die together.
I could not go on without him. I spent 36 years waiting for him, I could not continue knowing he was gone.

I would hope he would feel the same way. But I also know he has a daughter and until a certain point, he NEEDS to be here for her.

I would not want to inflict any pain of loss on him, but the agony of taking one more breath in this life without him being here with me is more than I could bear.

People say that is not a good thing to be so reliant on another person. Those people have not seen the 2 of us together. Have not lived our lives, and have not felt the love we have together. I feel sorry for them, not ever knowing a love as deep and true as we have made.

Kind of what my sig line says.... for those who have them turned off, read it this one time :

If love would die along with death, then this life would not be so hard.
 
Silver you found the words that I would have loved to find, you said how I feel so beautifully. My SO has a family outside of our relationship, a son and 3 daughters...

I agree with your sigline too!

But still it will be many years before we have to face these questions hopefully!

You ask a question I find impossible to answer, no matter how hard I think.

Thank you.
 
I have seen too many loved ones die. I would prefer not to see anymore die before me.
 
Its such a tough senario being the one left behind, but sadly one that a lot of us will have to face at least once in our lves.

I'm selfish I would rather go first.

Me too. I haven't had anyone closer than a grandparent die yet, but I've never failed to get over it pretty quickly, only occasionally thinking about their non-presence with regret.
 
not sure of the answer to your question its a very diffucult
choice ,was just wondering though how many of you believe that you will once again see your loved ones in some sort of
afterlife?
 
who goes first...

I would rather her go first, with me either being the one driving the truck or being the one the pushed her in front of the truck that hits her :D

(JUST KIDDING!!!!!!!!)
 
The Stud goes first. Odds are that he will anyway. I can deal with grief a lot better than he can. I loves the Stud dearly, don't get me wrong, but some of us are stronger than others emotionally. There are very few people in this world emotionally stronger than I am.
 
I'd rather go first. I wouldn't want him to have to deal with that kind of pain. He's had enough.

I guess It would depend on my SO, and which one of us was stronger.

So if I was emotionaly stronger then, Id have to say him first. If he was very, very strong. Then me first.

Did I confuse you all yet?

Nope, I agree with you.
It's a tough question to answer.
 
This would be a very hard thing for me to say for sure. Selfishly I'd want to be the one to go first, to escape the pain of having to live without him.

However, there is more life insurance on him than me....:p
