First, let's note in this possible alternate universe to the show that being an Alicorn means you are immortal. However, can still die by the sword.

 

Pony Princess; Celestia, Luna or Twilight etc love you and don't want to see you dying on them, so they use a spell to grant you permanent immortality with your permission. Would you accept or not? Immortality as in your body will be brought back to it's early twenties and won't age beyond that.  

 

I don't think I could put Twilight (Hey, a man can dream.) through me dying on her, due to my mortality. I think she would be heart broken as I die on her on my death bed as an old man. So, I think would accept immortality. And besides, if I get sick of life I can always jump into a volcano.

If I'm in a relationship with one of the princesses then yeah, I'd let them do that. I wouldn't be capable of letting them suffer through that pain if I could help it. 

 

 Only, if we are really in a romantic relationship though, not under other circumstances.

Where's the "GAAAH I DUNNO I DUNNO BRB" option? :P

 

Seriously, I'd be all stressed out about this decision. Living forever may be nice but then everyone you care about will grow old and die around you, and you'd be unable to do anything...plus I'd be far too much of a coward to take my own life if it became too much. Plus there's the saying "You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain". I may end up losing my mind and going berserk like the Ice King. O.o

 

Gaaaaah, I'm over thinking this way too much. xD

Since one of the Princesses offering it is apparently a lover in this scenario, I think living forever with a true love would be worth the sacrifice of never being able to rest for good. Immortality isn't invincibility anyways, so if it ever got to the point where I regretted my choice, I could still off myself.

I'll take the immortality, though I would hate to see everyone I love die.

 

I concur........funny, it reminded me of the ending of The Green Mile.

I would have to say no to them. While immortality is a romanticized theory, one must realize the consequential attachments. Specifically I think that it would be saddening to watch your friends grow old while you stay young, and watch them die beside you. Of course you would likely make new friends as well, but none would really be the same as the original friends you had spent your whole mortal life with. I'd rather grow old with my lifelong friends than watch those that I care about constantly dying around me.

I made it to 45 years of age without having much in the way of friends, and nil when it comes to relationships.  Being 22 instead of 45 would give me the time to be able to cultivate such things as opposed to now where the odds that I will ever say have a kid is so close to nil it is not funny. 

 

One lifetime is nowhere near long enough to live life.

Personal experience is another factor to take into consideration. I have few friends myself, although those I have I am very close to. However, I am young, and have time to adjust my life and mold it into what I want it to become. If a person lives a life they feel has not met its potential, the idea of a sort of "second chance" with immortality is a very appealing idea. I must admit though, that the child factor brings in yet another question: with immortality, could you bear to watch your children grow up, grow old, and eventually die? It is hard enough when a child's parent dies, but it is said that the pain is much worse for a parent whose child died before them. It is my personal opinion that I believe that the cons of immortality greatly outweigh the pros, thus my final answer to them would have to be a solid "no."

Actually it is a part of life that you outlive many of the people you meet in life.  It is one of those things that happen when you hit middle age.  All of the professional people you used as a child or a young adult start to retire and die.  The family doctor you used for years, the dentist -- they retire and die.  You end up with new dentists and doctors who are the same age or younger than yourself.

 

That said, no, I would have no special issues with my children and friends going through the cycle of life.

I don't think I would want that-outliving all of my other friends and loved ones doesn't sound very appealing to me-I believe this is also the reason why some of the most selfish villains in fiction seek it so aggressively, there is no one they care about that they would outlive.

 

And while that happens normally, going through that cycle of losing those you care about, finding new friends and loved ones only to lose them over and over again for eternity doesn't sound very pleasant.

 

I'm assuming that immortality would not involve immunity to injuries, so when it comes to accidents, you could lose limbs, senses, and even brain function-injuries that would not heal and suffering through them until the end of time.

 

So while life may be a gift, I think eternal life is much more of a curse.
