I’ll start off with one, Being upset about a breakup that happened hundreds of years ago.

Edit 1:

  • Heath death of the universe, Death of the sun, etc, does not count. I feel like focusing on this is an overused point.

Edit 2:

  • Loneliness does not count. I feel like we all know immortality means you’ll miss people and lose them.

    That old person feeling of no longer being with “it”, and what’s “it” now being strange and scary probably compounds over the centuries.

        I absolutely love the scene in “Interview with the Vampire” where Lestat is found hiding away in a room, distraught by all the creations of modern civilization.

      yes, but old people can get over that and just stop giving a fuck and accept that they’re weird now. it must be liberating.
