    What would you do in this situation?

    I was discussing a certain question with a good friend of mine that I had thought up while cooking breakfast. When it was all said and done, neither of us had an answer for it. He related it to a movie I never saw before so it's safe to say I didn't get it from that.

    Either way

    The love of your life/dream girl and the closest friend you had ever since you were a child are on the opposite ends of the world. Both are announced to only have 1 hour left to live (in other words, they will both die at the same time) from the time of this announcement. You can only visit one as the trip either way is 50 minutes.

    Which do you go see?

    Granted this situation has a 0.01% chance of happening, I'm curious to see what people would do if they were presented with said situation.

    with technology to get to the other side of the world in 50mins, i will escape death, merge my best friend and the love of my life, and sex him until im tired, whereupon i'll use lasers to make dinner, eat it, go to sleep, and maybe sex him again in the morning

    That's a really hard decision, couldn't they just both come to you and then you'd have 10 minutes with them, if its a 50 minute trip?

    If I had to make a choice, I would pick my best friend. I've known my best friend since I started school, over 16 years, and there's no way I could pick anyone else over him for anything. Losing the guy of my dreams and not being able to see him would hurt, but then again I don't think I'd ever feel whole again if something ever happened to my best friend, I just don't know what I would do, so I would go to him without a second thought.

    If you can make the trip there in 50 minutes why not have them both make the trip to you. Best of both worlds.

    Somehow I don't think that applies when its the "love for your life", esp. not if its your wife of x years, etc.

    Love the phrase though.

    True true, when he said dream girl, I dont see that as a married life partner, it just sounds like some high school crush.

    If, lets say, were all 45y/o, been married for 20 years, but have had a friend since we were 10, that would be a harder choice.. but probably go with the wife, and the friend should understand that.

    Sorry for the vagueness but this is something like what I meant. Extremes, basically where both are people you really can't live without.

    Edit: Most people that I have asked go with the love of their life as well. It used to be 50/50 for each but more go towards the love side now.

    Yesterday I would have chosen my wife. This morning at 0500 she asked me to clean up dog shit in the backyard, at that point in time my friend would have been saved. This afternoon I would choose my wife.

    ROFL I almsot spit out my drink when I read this dude. You're a winner hahahaha.

    For me the love of my life IS my best friend, so I wouldn't have to choose.

    I was waiting for this to be said, most people will probably follow suit.

    So rather for those who would love to answer like that or pick your love over your best friend, what if "best friend" was replaced with your mother/father (who ever you are closer to.)?

    Im surprised this was not added, you also have sex with your lover so....... even thou it would be a hard choice, its sorta one sided.
