You are granted the option to live 1000 years...

In good health and with the youthfulness of your prime. You are not granted protection from violence, and you are forewarned about having to watch generations of humans grow and pass before you. If you reject the offer, nothing happens and you live as normal. Do you accept? Or do you worry about what such a time might do to your sanity?
There's a story about this somewhere..for his sins a man is given the punishment of not aging and living for 1000 years. I'm not sure I'd like it..I'd go a little crazy. At some point I would like the big sleep..

@Majorlatency let me know if you recall the name of the story. I know stories of fiction tend to make things a little worse for conflict and dramatic tension, but I could definitely see sanity being at risk.

No my question is how long does my youth last then or do I progress growth like a normal person.
ViciDraco · 36-40, M
@TightyWhiteyKing your aging would continue as normal at the end, and could potentially be affected by technology of the day

@ViciDraco I wouldn't accept then

Was there a condition there that you would?

Count me in :)
No, I wouldn’t accept. I don’t even have to think about it. An existence watching everyone I loved age and die, leaving me alone, would drive me mad.
