    Would you wait for them to wake up or move on with your life?

    Assume it has been a few years already...

    hirap naman ng tanong mo sir gh...

    ako kasi, lagi ko sinasabi sa nagiging gf ko na, i promise i won't leave you kahit na ano mangyari. so, i'll stay to her side as what i said to her. i am a man with a word at ayoko sa lahat ang sumira ng salita. if i say, that will stay...

    Even if half a decade has passed and she is still in a deep coma with no signs of recovery?

    yeah... mas gugustuhin ko na i'll find a new one when she is dead. pero as long as she is in that state with a slight chance of waking up, hindi ko iiwan...

    Not really morbid. Just something that has definite no right or wrong answer.
    Do you place your life on "hold" (for years and years) to wait for the loved one to somehow "wake up" and hopefully be normal? OR do you move on with your life and maybe have a family with someone else?

    i wont wait for that long. maybe i can wait for a year but more... maybe not.

    and if she is in coma for that long, i suggest mercy killing. i do not want to prolong her agony

    GF: Case to case. Depends on the current state of our relationship; ie. how deep is it.

    Fiance: I'll wait, absolutely.

    If time is of the essence (i.e. you are already in your late 30's or early 40's), then you have to move on...

    But if your culture and beliefs tell you to stick it out, then wait.

    In such a situation, kung minsan, kahit na sabihin mo na mag hihintay ka or mag mo move on ka na, may mga factors na pwedeng mag influence sa mga decisions mo. Remember we are not the only beings on earth.

    It's going to be a personal decision, but I guess you should talk with her loved ones, close friends and a priest before talking any action.....

    what if the role is reversed, would you want your partner to keep waiting for you kahit very slim lang ang chance for you to recover?

    Parang yung palabas ni Mel Gibson 'Forever Young', kala niya hindi na magigising ang GF niya, nagpapreserve siya sa mga scientist na nagexperimento sa Cryogenics

    sinagot ko lng ung question kung sa akin ngyari, iintayin ko tlga sya. ..pero maganda tanong mo, what if kung ako naman ang nasa comma. since wala kang diwa, at gigising ka na lang maybe after ilang years, tatanggapin ko kung magkaroon man ng iba ang partner mo. mas magiging masaya pako kapag naging masaya sya. masakit pero ganun ang buhay e. ang masama ay kung vegetative state ka lang at aware ka sa ngyayari..mas masakit. kung ganun man mas gusto ko syang lumaya kaysa makitang nagdurusa sya ng dahil sa akin....

    I will move on with my life but will still be there for whatever support na kailangan ng brain dead GF or her family, her family should undestand that meron din akong sariling buhay and besides hinde pa naman kasal eh...

    kahit na engage pa kami...fiance, fiancee just a fancy words for BF/GF....

    as for the question kung ako yun brain dead. my GF has my blessings not to wait for me for her to move on with her life.

    The hard part if you are the one in the coma, waking up many years later would feel like no time would have passed for you. It would be like waking up a day later even if its nearly a decade would have passed.

    Can you really accept that everyone have moved on in their lives except for you?

    Can you even imagine how everything would be different in that time? Developments in technology, politics, even your friends and family.

    I guess you just have to accept that no matter how hard it is, the world will not stop from turning just bec you are in coma.

    question...somewhat related to comatose

    pag bakla ba nag karoon ng amnesia eh alam pa nila na bakla sila?
