Even the megathread isn't off limits to those who may abuse the information posted.
There are trash people who lie to become members for various reasons that have nothing to do with them genuinely wanting to end their own life.
Either way, I've always thought the whole idea and endeavor of a suicide partner/pact was in poor form, especially like this.
Unless you're in a very specific situation where you're already with the person and/or you both know what's waiting for you is a lot worse than death itself.
(Imagine a group of people in a cell, awaiting excruciating torture, they know they don't have much time before they're taken away to be subject to the prospective acts of cruelty- which will likely be terminal anyhow.
They have the means to end their lives before that happens so they all agree it's in their best interest to do so immediately.)
Otherwise no two people are likely to be so in sync as to be ready at the exact same time, in the exact same way.. never mind two strangers.
It's just asking for trouble imo, it's dangerous when intentions are so difficult to trust and in the very least you could end up pressured or pressuring the other person.
A lot of people think that if they're going to die anyway, it doesn't matter what risks they're taking with pursuing a partnership..but it will matter to you once things actually start going awry.
Another thing I've observed is that a lot of those looking for partners for death, may possess some underlying desire for a companion in life and are hoping that maybe the person they meet will forgo the pact and instead become a life partner.
A sort of last ditch exercise in desperation and wishful thinking.
I understand being lonely and isolated is a hard pill to swallow right through to the bitter end, but personally I wouldn't have it any other way as far as dying alone.
My suicide is for me, the act of ending my suffering is an intimate and very individual, private act.
I would actually feel more uncomfortable with another person by my side.
Maybe if I were shot in a crowd or died unexpectedly among other people, it wouldn't be so bad (besides being surrounded by assholes with cameras).
But with suicide, and the whole plan..concerning myself with another party would not only be outside of my list of priorities but I would feel my last moments were being violated.
