What if you woke up in the morning only to discover you are now the last person left in the world?

Are you guys able to handle a question like this on a Sunday? I'm very curious what you think your response or actions would look like after doing such a discovery.

The problem with this question is that it would be impossible to verify that I was the only person left. So, I would probably wander around looking for other people trying to figure out what happened.

I would also be wondering why all of the people disappeared and try to figure out how to keep myself from disappearing, figuring that whatever happened was something much bigger than me.

Any answers I give would depend entirely on the cause of the mass disappearance and not really about the fact that I was suddenly alone.

I can imagine that being a very real reaction that many people would have: to start looking for other people, and maybe do this until the day they die, never actually believing they're the last person in the world.

Thanks for your great response!

There were two sides of my comment. There is the wandering around seeking companionship. The second reason is trying to figure out what just happened.

If you woke up and found everyone gone: Would you assume that all the people somehow disappeared leaving just you, or would you assume that you somehow disappeared and that all of the people were somehow somewhere else?

But who make you belive that...there must be someone to make you aware of the situation...
