So
far, the Underground Man’s life has been nothing but despair. He wastes all his
time trying to control others, which is an unhealthy goal that amounts to nothing
for him. When he finally finds Liza, the person whom he can abuse, it turns out
that she is much stronger and more stable than he is. This makes the
Underground Man finally burst out with insecurity, and he seems helpless in his
mental issues. What do you think will be the final resolution in the story? Will
the Underground Man find happiness (and would it be with Liza)? Will he commit
suicide or finally provoke someone enough for them to murder him? Or would the
story amount to some other ending?

I think that the underground man will die, just like everyone else in the world. Die after living a lonesome life with no absolution or accomplishment. Just like everyone who came before him, the Underground man will die and be forgotten, will not reach happiness.
Say his liver is failing, then yes he will die probably sooner than others, and it will all be his own negligence. UM's crippling counciousness will inevitably result into his own demise, and I won't feel bad for him.
