Im perfectly content with the idea of dieing alone if I dont get to find my other half on this lifetime. I couldnt live a lie like that (getting married so I wouldnt have to live alone). What do you think?

we all ultimately die alone.. nobody is inside our brains with us. A physical presence isn't relatively special... nobody can really know us as well as we know ourselves.

Technically everyone dies "alone." I'm not really concerned about dying without a significant other, despite currently having one. I have experienced a fantastic relationship, and if it is the only one in life I have (whether ending soon, later or never), then I won't be unhappy.

This is incorrect, our significant others can know us better than ourselves.

Not really.. everybody has secrets that people will never know. It's a nice to idea to believe somebody can know us better than ourselves.. but it's never true. People deceive others fairly easily..

This is why we have to find the right person, there is only one. We have 2 eyes to see with, 2 hands to feel, 2 legs to walk but only one heart because its on us to go and find the other.

I don't know if I agree with that. You may have an emotional connection with a person.. but they ultimately don't die with you. Even if they happened to die at the exact same moment.. your experiences are internalized within yourself.

Having 2 hearts would be kinda weird. One on either side

We're still dead in the end, and mostly forgotten. In a couple centuries, who will remember any of us?

well I agree with everyone here that we do die alone, even if physically we are surrounded by people. I currently am alone if I did die right now I would die alone in it's complete form of oneness so I kind of have to be ok with the idea of dying alone because I don't see it changing anytime soon. I guess it just depends on the persons idea or definition of alone.

Very few people truly die alone. If one does not have a mater, it does not mean they die alone.

the idea that we as people NEED another person is a irrational symptom of our need for survival, to have one procreational partner for our entire lives is irrational and illogical in nature that is why so few organisms in nature have one procreational partner. This idea that we need another person to feel complete is romantic but it is a creation of society and not of our nature.

For those who believe that not dieing alone is impossible, I dont agree with any of you. Im entitled to my opinion so im not concerned if nobody agree's with me. I guess if you dont want to have hope to find true love, thats on you.

I live life one day at a time. I try not to think about my death. That said, though, I'm currently happily taken and if I died tomorrow I'd die happy.

Well this is just a cheery thread! To add to the depression, contemplate this: By the time you are done reading this sentence over 3000 cats and dogs will be euthanized in America.

Sure, I'd rather live first though.
