You can be important to someone but I am pretty sure if your life ends, the other one's does not. You can pass away, the people who like you will be sad for the first months but their lives will keep going on and you'll be eventually only a memory in a few years. It's not like people are replaceable (or they are?), but it's a pain that will be gone and will be replaced by new discoveries/new pleasures from life.

Unless you take as example the really old people couples whom were married for 50 years and when one of them die, the other dies within a few weeks.

My thoughts exactly, cos it's so easy to say "suicide is bad" when you have never been depressed to death literally.
