Usually, this is a two sided problem.
- On the one hand, the selfish "I want to live forever" that you mentioned.

- On the other hand, there's the "I don't want my loved ones to stop existing". And this is the most difficult to cope with, when one of them does die. It certainly feels good to think that they go to a better place and that we'll join with them when our time comes.
