| North79 | posted 19-Mar-1999 3:16pm My parents, my brother, and my girlfriend. Anyone else I'd hesitate for sure..and for some stranger I probably wouldn't volunteer.. |
| Jody | posted 19-Mar-1999 3:22pm My mother and my husband. If I get to hesitate for a second and think about it, I might add another 2-3 people. |
| drdt | posted 19-Mar-1999 4:08pm Given no time to think, I expect that I, like many people, would instinctively try to save another person before noticing that the act would end up killing me in their place. But in a situation where I had a chance to evaluate the situation, no one comes to mind. |
| steve | posted 19-Mar-1999 4:56pm Tom and Elizabeth. |
| Pomeranian | posted 19-Mar-1999 5:50pm My twin brother, my niece or my nephews. |
| hunter | posted 19-Mar-1999 5:51pm Great googly moogly! There are two of you?! |
| Pomeranian | posted 19-Mar-1999 6:19pm hunter: yes, but don't let the living dead know that...they haven't eaten him yet. |
| bill | posted 20-Mar-1999 4:57am I would never do this for anyone without a second thought and I hope no one would do it for me. This is your life we're talking about here, think about it before you throw it away! |
| jjg | posted 20-Mar-1999 8:28am My daughter is the only person that I love so unconditionally that I would give up my life with no thought. My wife would require a second thought. She doesn't like this answer, but it's true. |
| they | posted 20-Mar-1999 9:30am Four people... As I have said before, if there is an animal on the road, I will swerve off the road to miss it... So I guess I can say any animal... but only four people. |
| romkey | posted 20-Mar-1999 9:35am I don't think I would do it for anyone, either |
| Gamera | posted 21-Mar-1999 1:01am I have no way to judge this. I have never been in any sort of situation like this,so I'm not sure what I would do, for one thing, and it's really hard for me to guess what I would be thinking when I did it. I think the answer is either 0 or 2 or More than 2. Either I would think twice about it for anyone, I would think twice about it for anyone but 2 very special people, or I would not think twice about it for any of a number of people. 3-9 is unlikely. |
| Ophelia | posted 21-Mar-1999 12:22pm I have to say my mom, my dad and my sister. |
| Mattias | posted 21-Mar-1999 2:54pm My SO. |
| Wicksy | posted 22-Mar-1999 5:42am It depends on the circumstances. Obviously if I had terminal cancer, I would choose myself to die over my girlfriend, but is she had it, I wouldn't die for them because they would soon be dead as well. I just can't answer this one so I put not sure. Good idea though. put it in a specific situation and then I 'll try and answer it. |
| jettles | posted 22-Mar-1999 7:51am aaaahhh, but this is making me think about it, so is it a true measure of what i would do. i think this question is unable to be answered. we can say whatever we please but until that moment comes you can't ever know what will happen!! i have stopped to help people i don't even know in situations i never thought i would, at least twice in the past two years that afterwards i thought about it and didn't know why i had. i think it is more a matter of instinct rather than how close you necessarily are. if i had to choose i would say my lover, my brother, my dad and my aunt, and 3 close close friends but i would be hoping that i would. |
| Pooh_Bear | posted 22-Mar-1999 11:25am My husband, though I know he wouldn't want me to do it. |
| dpolicar | posted 22-Mar-1999 4:30pm I don't think I can predict my willingness to die to save someone else without actually being in the situation. Don't know, won't ever know. |
| kristalynn | posted 22-Mar-1999 6:26pm i would only die for my boyfriend well without thinking about it anyway |
| Mandy2 | posted 23-Mar-1999 10:37pm I would only do it for my fiance, my mom, my li'l brother, my granny and my best friend. I know they would all do it for me. |
| WilliamFaulkner | posted 24-Mar-1999 5:18pm I never do anything without a second thought. |
| Mozluvr | posted 27-Mar-1999 6:44pm There are many that I would waste my own life for, because I do not particularly enjoy living, but I would not want to save some craphead's life. People I include would be Morrissey, my sister, my friend Anne and someone I know named Torr Leonard... |
| pandora | posted 27-Mar-1999 7:07pm Damn, I'm selfish. I think I would die for quite a few people, but it would take a second thought, or a third or fourth. This is strange when I think about it, since I'm not even really enjoying life that much. |
| mandy | posted 31-Mar-1999 9:20pm I would also save any animal....only three peeps....My daughter...My girlfriend...and Nick |
| mandy | posted 31-Mar-1999 9:20pm without a second thought.... |
| jaff | posted 1-Apr-1999 12:00pm my sister. 'nuf said. |
| wynkin | posted 2-Apr-1999 7:17am My husband and two children. Anyone else, I would hesitate. |
| lion | posted 8-Apr-1999 12:25am My SO - but only if death was the *only* way to save him from the situation. |
| SueBee | posted 18-Apr-1999 4:10pm My darling mandy and her daughter are the two people I would give my life for without even a fleeting second thought. There's no doubt in my mind about that, because I wouldn't want to live without them. There are others (my parents, brother & sister, and my best friend) for whom I would probably risk my life, but maybe not quite so selflessly. I guess it depends on the circumstances. I would do it for a stranger in some cases...for example, if I saw a child being mauled by a dog, I'm sure I would intervene without much thought to my own safety. |
| mandy | posted 18-Apr-1999 4:58pm MY HERO!!!!*smiles* |
| eris | posted 22-Apr-1999 10:10pm My SO, my parents, my brother, and several best friends. This is not the answer I would rationally have expected myself to give (I expected fewer). |
