Invincible - Live a normal life span, can get hurt, but won’t be killed, still feel things

Immortal - Live forever (stop aging in your mid30s) still capable of being injured and dying via unnatural causes

Invulnerable - Live a normal life span, can’t get hurt or killed, but in return can’t feel anything (emotionally or physically)

Took a little liberty with some of the definitions to provide enough separation for the question.

Immortal - could always end things if they get rough.

Always immortal if there is a permanent opt out like Aragorn.

If I keep aging with the immortal one, I think I'll pass on that. Living with a continuously decaying body would be hell.

If that's the case I'd take invulnerable.

Edited. Let’s say you stop aging in your mid-30s

So for that last one. You can’t feel anything. No joy, no happiness or sadness. You can’t enjoy the taste of food or the pleasures of the flesh. No feeling period.
