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.

If you’re immortal, you get to see your family expand to the points that organizing a single family meal requires 3 restaurants to house everyone.

Since you (presumably, otherwise it’s a shitty immortality) don’t get old, you don’t get to retire

Retirement is a function of money/wealth, not age.

If you’re immortal, you’d (not you specifically, just whoever in general) have to be a complete tool to go through hundreds/thousands of years without generating at least enough wealth to retire at some point.
