Assuming no ageing or that kind of thing (though if it came to it, I'd probably wish to be younger than I am now... Like, 12 maybe. Don't ask. XD)
Well, that being the case, I'd be uncertain. Either forever, or to put a more definite time on it, 10-20,000 years or so.
Long enough to be really ancient by human standards, but not so long as to outlive the universe, or stars or things like that.

I am immortal, because I believe in reincarnation.
Not completele sure about it, though. Just something I kind of believe in.
As for my present life: Until my time is up.
Come to think of it, as long as anyone else lives. I am just another person, I need not live longer than everybody else.

Wow, I didn't think there would be someone who would say the exact same number as me. Mind if I ask why you want to live until 103?Jedamethis said:
For me, I want to live until I'm 103 so that I can be friends with my best friend for 100 years. Of course, he would have to live that long too.
75 is the top limit, preferably closer to 65. Above that age you start being less productive, less useful, you start having problems with most of everyday tasks, more likely to catch some annoying disease that could immobilize you in one way or another, you get all wrinkly, old and ugly. The day something trivial like going to bathroom will start being a challenge i want to be the last day.
I'd live to see if the year 3000 is futurama like, cause that was people in the 90s thought the year 2000 was gonna be.
I thought the OP said you stay young for the stated time.Keava said:

If it was nothing can kill you then I'd have to think long and hard about it. Imagine if you got buried in a collapsed building, you could be under rubble for a VERY long time.
Life wouldn't be worth it without my friends or a partner who would survive through it all with me, I always used to love the idea of immortality, but now a say the drawbacks seem rather... harsh.
I'd like to live until I'm about 80. I'd definitely be dead before then, but it's a nice thought to wanna live that long.
I'd either go with this or just say until the year 3000. And if this being would be so benevolent I'd ask that my future wife be able to share my gift so that I wouldn't be alone or miserable after all those(but her) that I knew and loved diedJedoro said:
It'd definitely be a mindfuck for her until you found her and explained the situation.AgDr_ODST said:
I wouldn't ask for my future wife to have it, but I'd ask for my "soul mate" to live as long as I did. You know, the woman I'm perfect for and who's perfect for me. She might not even speak the same language, but I'd like to have as much time as I needed to travel the world and find her.
Or, you know, wait for her to appear in the news when she freaks out about not aging.
I'd say 120-160 years. I believe in that time, the earth will be set off in the right direction, and that's really all I need to see before I die.
I'd either never die - is that an option? - or live until I'm 314. And 15 days. And a few other digits of pi thrown in as hours, minutes and seconds. I shall be known for the rest of history as pi-man!
