Hmmm maybe not, it was the episode where Leela thought Fry died, but she was in a coma all alongEukaryote said:
I think there's more of an issue than just having to wait around. I mean typically comas last for 2-5 weeks. Unless you'd only just starting dating I think that's not such a bad time to hang around. But there's other problems too. Like recovery occurs gradually. A patient doesn't just wake up and be fine, they slowly regain awareness and some don't ever recovery fully. Coma patients when they wake are generally extremely confused, my suffer amnesia and sometimes have disabilities, especially in relation to speech.
So if you chose to leave your girlfriend in a coma it might not be you just being an asshole. You should consider how close you were and long you'd been together and try and decide if she woke up a complete mess, unable to remember events, not being able to speak, would you be the person she wants there?
You being there may make her uncomfortable or be completely unwanted if you'd only been together for a while, or your relationship was rocky.

So many variables to consider. How long have we been together? What kind of coma? and so on.
Speaking as someone who is married. I can say if my wife went in to a coma I would not leave her, ever. And If there was a chance of her recovering I don't know if I could bring myself to pull the plug. I am a little selfish for that I know. If they said there is absolutly no chance. Well... I guess I'd have to. Though I'd probably not be able to date again for at least a couple years...

I'd visit him everyday, grief clear on my face. I'd get in the habit of asking for privacy; to be alone with him for an hour without nurses or visitors. After everyone leaves, wishing me their condolences, I lock the door behind them, cackle madly, and climb on top of his comatose body. Leaning forward, close to his face, I'll tell him, "You're not getting away from me that easily!"
...and that is what I'd do if he was in a vegetative state.

LOL! I thought that you were asking for advice on how to handle your comatose gf and so I was going to put some of the lyrics from "Girlfriend in a Coma" in here. Turns out that the song inspired this post.
OT: I would probably wait for a couple months or something to see if she got any better. If it didn't look like she was coming out of it, I would probably move on with my life. She'd probably wake up then, come to see me, find me with another women, and the shit would hit the fan. But, hey, I'm not gonna wait around my whole life for a seemingly hopeless case. Plus I would have at least waited for her for a bit rather then just run off right away.

Hmm, taken advantage of by your girlfriend while in a comatose state. Every man's dream... wait...Paksenarrion said:
Yeah, never mind, that actually sounds about right.
depends on a few factors for me. Is she the one that i "truly love" and wouldnt want anyone else? if thats not the case then i guess its all time sensitive i mean if its just a girlfriend im not sure about, or havnt invested a lot of time them i guess i would wait a few months.
It depend who you love the most!
If it you, then you'll be forever in agony over every girl that pass by and regret never tring to LIVE your life. This will lead to self destruction!
If it her, Then you'll be forever in agony over the fact she was the woman of your life and all the women you "did" are nothing to you. Worst of all, when she wake up, it will be ether without you or with you and a few skeletons in the closet.
My advice: PULL THE PLUG! It may be harsh but at least no matter what you choose, he won't suffer. Like in Sin city; "An old man dies. A young woman lives. Fare trade" only without the age thing. (ladies, feel free to change the gender to sout you)
As your boyfriend, i would be disapointed that i didn't felt anything... but i gess it the gesture that count!
