How does it feel to save a life?

Asked by Simone_De_Beauvoir (39052points) September 5th, 2009

I want to know if you’ve ever saved a life – and what it felt like and whether those feelings changed over time…

Many of us have been in a position to save someone from suicide, myself included and though I believe a person can freely take their life, all the friends I’ve saved are still alive…I don’t feel anything in particular about it…one has dropped me as a friend recently because his girlfriend is threatened that we’ve slept once long before her time…and I look back on our friendship and think I helped you, I saved your life, more than once and you’ve forgotten me…others whose lives I saved have in turn saved mine, these couple of times…

what about you? did you ever save someone who was drowning? did you ever save someone who was choking? Did anyone save your life?
