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.

You know how the curse of pet ownership is that you will almost certainly outlive them?

That, but with everyone you love

Agreed. You will have to move state to state after three decades. New identity, new job, basically new "life" so as not to raise any suspicions.

You do not wanna spend the rest of the eternity being a state government "lab rat"

I believe there's a movie about this.

I would only accept this kind of deal with the Devil if I had the power to turn people I care about into fellow immortals, which comes with its own pitfalls I'm well aware of (imagine holding a grudge for thousands of years), but still.
