I got a promise with myself
At the age of 33 I will either be in a full term realtionship with a solid career and a long life to look forward to. Or I'll kill myself.

I have 2 years to go. I have been working at my 1st full time job for the last 2 years and I have a girlfriend but I don't see it being too long term.

you got your first real job at 29...

Topping yourself if your mediocre ambitions fail to materialise seems perfectly rational to me

break your promise
there is no such thing as a full term relationship

there is no such thing as a solid career

...don't waste your time trying to live up to the things that were expected of people who lived 100 years ago. Come and live in the real world with the rest of us, and do that until old age, and then die in a warm, slightly wet bed at the age of 86

..or until you get hit by a bus. Someone has to

I agree
Also if you don't know if you have the chance for a long life by 33, try thinking about for a bit longer, hey presto your life just got longer! Do this again and again until you can't remember how to wipe your own ass.

Kill yourself now
Save yourself the disappointment....

I made a similar decision.
But I was standing on a window ledge on the 19th floor of a block of flats and the age I chose was 30. I'm older than that now...
To be honest I still think life is shit and I should have called game over then -- but I met the most wonderful girl last year and she's helping me understand what is important.
I think the trick to life is to find a rut and slide right in, or gamble it every day and have fun until you loose.

Probably not going to happen. I only know you from those four sentences and I hate you.
No point putting it off; kill yourself now.

If you get to 33 and don't want your life any more....
... give it to someone else!

There are dozens, even hundreds, of places in the world that could use volunteers for all sorts of things. If you don't want your life any more, then go somewhere where it might end any minute but where you could actually make a difference. And make that difference.

You might actually find that while you are at it you find a reason to hang on to what you have too but if not you've not lost anything - you can end it all tomorrow as easily as today. In the meantime you might be able to do something that those with more to lose don't dare to.
