Why Do People Think Committing Suicide Is Selfish? Even Those Whose Relative Have Already Committed Suicide?

Question by Clue: Why do people think committing suicide is selfish? Even those whose relative have already committed suicide?
People usually claim that by killing oneself you are being selfish b/c you will put your close ones, family and friends, into a situation of emotional grief and lifelong pain b/c of your loss and the subsequent mourning.

First of all I want to say that Some people who commit suicide have NOBODY who cares for them. There exist many people among us whose parents are already dead, they have no siblings or they are also dead, and never made any friends. So if they die Really NOBODY would notice or care. So how does this argument about their being “selfish” would work in this case? I think it doesn’t work at all. It doesn’t apply to them. So people should come up with another BETTER argument if they still insist to keep these people alive and in suffering.
