If Alice died, and Bob wishes he had died instead, that would be Survivor Guilt. This is when Bob wishes Carol had died instead.
Then, those with Survivor Guilt may think that others think this.
Sometimes used in family situations to lampshade that the target of the comment is The Un-Favourite. A variation might be "I should have aborted you", "You were an accident", or something similar. An easy Kick the Dog (or Moral Event Horizon) line. On the other hand, there are cases when Bob is right, and that if Carol had died, Alice would have lived (and, on occasion, that Carol should have died instead). This can lead to a "Well Done, Son" Guy relationship when it comes to a father-son dynamic.
When the dead person is the survivor's mother, Death by Childbirth can result in the subtrope Maternal Death? Blame the Child!.
On the other hand, if you, Dirty Coward that you are, survived by sacrificing the other character, expect no mercy. Compare I Wished You Were Dead and They Died Because of You. Saying this can occur during a Moment of Weakness.

Watchmen: Rorschach's backstory reveals that his mother was a prostitute, and as a child, he interrupted her while she was busy on the job. Her john left, paying only a token amount, and she descended angrily on her son—slapping him, shaking him, and shouting "I should have had that abortion!" As an adult, when he was informed of his mother's death, he responded with a single word: "Good."

Abraxas (Hrodvitnon): Some people in Monarch, particularly those who were close friends with Dr. Vivienne Graham, wish that it had been Mark Russell instead of her who died during Ghidorah's awakening, especially since her going out of her way to save Mark's life when she could've run was a contributing factor to Ghidorah noticing and chomping her. Mark is aware of it even if none of them say it to his face except for Mariko, who straight-up tells Mark that she thinks Vivienne losing her life saving him was a pointless waste. Mark is actually inclined to agree with them all on it.
Mark moves past it by the fic's canon ending, but in a non-canon crossover with MonsterVerse canon where he meets his canon self during Godzilla vs. Kong, Abraxas Mark is disgusted that his other self hasn't gone through as much Character Development as him and is refusing to parent Madison ideally, culminating in Abraxas Mark telling Canon Mark that it's a real shame Canon Vivienne didn't survive and become Canon Madison's guardian instead of him.

Tales of Berseria: The final confrontation with Artorius leads him to tell Velvet that he wished she and Laphicet had died during the first Crimson Night, instead of his wife Celica and their unborn son. Velvet understands, but points out that she knows it would have made no difference. Either way, Artorius would have attempted to go through with his plan of eradicating emotions in humanity; only his reason for doing so would have been their death instead.

Arrow:
In the pilot episode, Oliver Queen comes Back from the Dead after supposedly being Lost at Sea in a yacht sinking. He goes to apologize to his ex-fiancé Laurel Lance, as he was cheating on Laurel with her sister Sara who was on the yacht at the time. Laurel tells Oliver he should have died instead of Sara and he agrees with her, even though she later takes back the comment.
When Oliver's sister Thea thinks that her mother is having an affair with Malcolm Merlyn (and has been since before her father died), she tells her it should have been her on the yacht.

Runaways: In the final arc, an accident results in an explosion that hits Old Lace and Klara. Old Lace covers Klara, shielding her from the blast, and apparently dies as a result. Throughout the arc, Chase makes it abundantly clear that he wishes Klara had died instead. Later, when the team shows up in Avengers Academy, it's heavily implied that Klara's developed such severe Survivor's Guilt that she blames herself for the accident.

The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King: The source of the page quote. Steward Denethor feels this way regarding the death of his eldest and favorite son Boromir, wishing that his younger son Faramir had died instead. While the novel largely leaves this as implied, the movie makes it explicit; Faramir states what he believes his father is thinking (after a scene in the Extended Edition where the Steward berates him and compares him negatively to his brother), and Denethor openly confirms it. Subverted in that, when Faramir returns from the ill-fated charge near death, Denethor loses it completely and tries to burn himself and Faramir alive.

Tales Series
Tales of Symphonia: the Flanoir scene with Zelos has him tell Lloyd about how his mother died in an attack meant for him. His mother's last words really hit the point home: "You should never have been born."
A sentiment related to this trope comes up when Pietro escapes from the Asgard-area Human Ranch, only to be reduced to a nearly mindless shell of his former self, and his escape indirectly leads to the Desians attacking and razing Luin, taking the survivors to the ranch. When Sophia is reluctant to have Pietro show the party how to re-enter the human ranch, Sheena angrily reminds her that because of him, many people from Luin lost their lives, and the least he can do is help.

In Bambi II, after Bambi learns that his father was planning on sending him away to live with another doe (a deal that his father was about to cut off from), he angrily snaps at his father, going as far as to say that he wish his mother with him instead of his father. Somewhat downplayed as the movie makes it clear that Bambi isn't very familiar with the concept of death, so he might not realize the severity of what he's saying.

In Naruto, Neji essentially has this attitude toward Hiashi, and to a lesser extent, Hinata, and the cause of his resentment toward the head family is blaming them for his father, Hizashi's, death. When Neji was four and Hinata was three, Hinata was kidnapped, and her father Hiashi killed the kidnapper, an important dignitary from the Cloud Village. The Cloud Village then demanded the murderer's death, and the head family had Hizashi die in Hiashi's place, although it later turns out that Hizashi did so willingly and Hiashi actually had to be restrained from stopping him.

In the third book of The Daevabad Trilogy, Jamshid tells Ali that he should be dead instead of Muntadhir, Ali's brother and Jamshid's lover. (Muntadhir actually survived, but neither of them know.) When Nahri and Ali point out that Muntadhir willingly took the blow, Jamshid says this is no excuse because Ali's duty was for there never to be a situation where his brother could be between him and a sword.

Harry Potter:
In Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Wormtail tries to justify to Harry, Sirius, and Lupin his betrayal of Lily and James Potter, claiming that Voldemort would have killed him if he hadn't told him where they were. Sirius shouts furiously, "THEN YOU SHOULD HAVE DIED! Died rather than betray your friends, as we would have done for you!" Justified in that Sirius isn't saying that, all other things held equal, it would have been better for Peter to die than James and Lily; rather, he's specifically berating Peter for giving up his friends to save his own skin.
This trope is heavily implied to be the reason behind Professor Snape's reprehensible treatment of Neville Longbottom throughout all his time at school. Neville and Harry were both the potential subject of the prophecy Snape had overheard and relayed to Voldemort years before, and Voldemort choosing the latter over the former led to the death of Harry's mother and Snape's childhood love, Lily.

Attack on Titan:
Ymir indirectly expresses this sentiment by saying how it's unfortunate that Armin is the Sole Survivor of his patrol group, and wasn't worth the sacrifices of Eren and the rest (Eren later survived by turning into a Titan, but no one knew this at the time).
Armin gets this again much later on when he was chosen to be saved over Erwin. Levi was given a serum that would transform someone into a Titan, and it was up to him to decide who to use it on. Armin and Erwin were both on the verge of death after an excruciating battle against the Armored, Colossal, Beast and Cart Titans, and the Survey Corps had successfully captured Bertolt, the Colossal Titan. All the other characters at the scene insisted on giving Erwin the serum, but Eren and Mikasa physically fought Levi and Hange trying to persuade them otherwise. Eventually, Levi chose Armin (his reasoning has yet to be discussed, but it's implied that he realized Erwin just wanted to die right then and there), who is now the Colossal Titan. Afterwards, at an official gathering, Floch who was responsible for rescuing Erwin from the battlefield and bringing him to where the main characters were gathered, approaches Eren, Armin and Mikasa and calls them out on their actions, directly saying to Armin that he's not good enough to be Erwin's replacement. Eren retaliates saying that Floch knows absolutely nothing about Armin and that he shouldn't judge him, but Floch's opinion doesn't change at all.

In Supernatural, after Charlie gets killed, Dean takes another level in jerkass and tells his brother Sam: "I think it should be you up there — not her". This is uncharacteristic of Dean, who has previously been criticized for sacrificing anything and any one to keep Sam alive. It is a symptom of the influence the Mark of Cain.

Late in Charlotte, Kumagami and Nao are abducted by some terrorists, who demand that Yuu turn himself over to them in exchange for the hostages' safety. Kumagami's colleagues in the "Syndicate" decide to send Yuu in to defeat the terrorists and save the hostages. The rescue attempt goes horribly wrong when Yuu loses an eye, thereby preventing him from turning back time, then inadvertently activates his "collapse" ability and destroys the building, with the hostages in the basement. Yuu manages to survive, by using his telekinesis, but Kumagami dies protecting Nao. After finding Yuu in the rubble, Shichino says that he'll be angry if the other two are dead, and after Yuu learns of Kumagami's fate, Shichino says that it happened because Yuu was "trying to save (his) own ass."

In In This Corner of the World, Suzu is looking after her young niece Harumi when a time-delayed bomb goes off nearby, killing Harumi, and causing Suzu to lose her right hand. Keiko, Harumi's mother and Suzu's sister-in-law, blinded by grief, calls Suzu a "murderer," indirectly expressing the wish that Suzu had died instead. Some of the others nearby believe that Keiko didn't mean this, and Keiko later apologizes.

The Order of the Stick:
Girard's attitude to Soon, regarding how their teammate Kraagor was killed sealing the last rift of the Snarl.
In the On The Origin of PCs prequel volume, Eugene Greenhilt addresses the "you were an accident" variation to Roy.
It's heavily implied that Roy thinks this way of Belkar after Durkon's vampirization, as the "happy ending" illusion in Girard's pyramid has Durkon showing up alive and Belkar dying. For context, when Malack attacked Belkar, Durkon intervened and fought Malack. Durkon lost and was vampirized, while Malack spared Belkar as a final gesture of respect to Durkon.

moral of the story (Nyame):
Thea implies this with Oliver in the wake of Laurel's suicide, since he's the one whose words drove Laurel over the Despair Event Horizon.
Quentin used to introduce Laurel as "the daughter that lived" and outright blamed her for Sara's "death". When Laurel meets him again after her resurrection and he turns things around by claiming things were better when Sara was dead and that he was glad she was back in the League, Laurel is not impressed in the least and tells him off for being unable to love both his daughters equally.

Berserk: Guts's adoptive father Gambino told him this word for word when he tried to kill him. He's referring to Sys, Gambino's lover, who died from the plague just three years after they took Guts in. He blames this on Guts due to a superstitious belief that his being born from a corpse makes him bad luck, which fueled a hatred that had previously led him to sell the kid to one of his men as a child prostitute for three silver coins.

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirit of Justice has this in the DLC case, Turnabout Time Traveler. Pierce wishes Sorin had died in the car accident that killed Sorin's sister (and Pierce's fiancée) Selena instead of her, because Pierce was the surgeon on call at the hospital that day, and Selena insisted that he operate on Sorin first even though she was the more seriously injured of the two.
The previous game has a non-familial example. Years ago, Simon Blackquill took the blame for the murder of Metis Cykes so he could protect Athena (an eleven-year-old child) from the setting's Kangaroo Courts. His sister never forgave Athena for her brother's decision, and later tries to kidnap and kill her out of Irrational Hatred. (Simon himself is not pleased.)

Tales of Symphonia: the Flanoir scene with Zelos has him tell Lloyd about how his mother died in an attack meant for him. His mother's last words really hit the point home: "You should never have been born."
A sentiment related to this trope comes up when Pietro escapes from the Asgard-area Human Ranch, only to be reduced to a nearly mindless shell of his former self, and his escape indirectly leads to the Desians attacking and razing Luin, taking the survivors to the ranch. When Sophia is reluctant to have Pietro show the party how to re-enter the human ranch, Sheena angrily reminds her that because of him, many people from Luin lost their lives, and the least he can do is help.

In The Lord of the Rings, Denethor believes his youngest son, Faramir, should have died in place of his elder brother Boromir, Denethor's favorite. He's less blatant about it in the books than in the film adaptation (the latter being the source of the page quote), but it's still there under the surface. It's strategic thinking mixed up with Parental Favoritism as Boromir was widely considered the better warrior on top of Denethor getting on with him better. Faramir's refusal to take the Ring compounds this, as Denethor wanted one son or the other to bring it to him as a weapon of last resort—Boromir would have (or so Denethor believes) and Faramir utterly refused when given an even better chance to take it than his brother had. note As for who was responsible for the brothers having the places they did: both had the prophetic dream, Boromir claimed the quest out of Big Brother Instinct, and Denethor agreed.

In Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard, Hearthstone already had the problem of being born deaf, while elves react badly to anyone who's not "perfect." Worse, when he was eight his brother Andiron died, with Heathstone nearby but unable to hear his cries for help; as a result, their parents not only openly say that Hearthstone should have died, they insist that he pay Andiron's wergild. Ironically Andiron's spirit appears later in the series and reassures Hearthstone that he was not responsible for his death.

In I, Claudius, Claudius' mother tells him flat out that she wishes he had died instead of his more accomplished brother (who was poisoned by his grandmother's agents.) Of course, if Claudius hadn't been acting like a complete fool, he would have probably been likewise targeted for death as a young man, since his political beliefs also ran counter to his grandmother's.

Soap: Elaine Lefkowitz, Danny's first wife, had this ("Why couldn't it have been you?") said to her by her father after her mother and sister died. This made her distrust everybody and become the spoilt, unlikeable woman that she was when she married Danny (fortunately she becomes nicer). Unfortunately, she dies shortly afterward.

Xenoblade Chronicles 3: Mrs. Reid doesn't say it out loud, but she is not subtle about how she believes that Titania would have become an Ouroboros candidate and the pride of the Reid family, while Shania besmirches the family name by failing to live up to her older sister.

A New Hope (Danganronpa): After Ibuki's death, Kaede tries to comfort a distraught Leon (as he and the victim had a thing for each other), only for Leon to snap at her and say that it should have been her. This outburst is later used to pin the murder on Leon, as the trap actually was meant to kill Kaede, but Nagito tampered with it so that it would kill someone else.

In the Batman: The Animated Series episode "I Am the Night", Gordon got shot during a raid and Batman blames himself for it because he arrived too late due to it being the anniversary of his parents' death (he was putting two roses at the spot their bodies lay). Later, Batman visits Gordon while in critical condition to apologize for not being there in time, then Bullock appears and agrees with him, and then says maybe the shooter Jazzman would have gotten Batman instead.

A Song of Ice and Fire:
Catelyn Stark dislikes her husband Ned Stark's illegitimate child, Jon, in A Game of Thrones. After her own son Bran is critically injured after being pushed from a tall window, Catelyn tells Jon that it should have been him.
A poignant example appears in the Prequel, Tales of Dunk and Egg where at the end of "The Hedge Knight", Prince Valarr grieves for the loss of his kind father, the beloved Baelor Breakspear, and wonders how a hedge knight like Dunk gets to live instead of the man who had the potential to be the greatest of the Targaryen Kings.
Sansa tells her sister Arya she should have been killed instead of her pet direwolf Lady. Sansa fails to realize that Lady's death is partly her own fault as she refused to admit to the king that Arya attacked Joffrey out of self-defense.

One Piece: Played for Laughs (sort of), in a flashback to Luffy's childhood, growing up with two blood brothers, Ace and Sabo. Sabo is apparently killed by a World Noble, and both Ace and Luffy vow to grow strong enough to fight back against the unjust world that allowed this to happen. After another sparring session where Ace easily defeats Luffy again, they both briefly imagine Sabo is alive again and giving Luffy some positive encouragement, only to realize it was just their imagination. Luffy then mutters that Sabo was always the kinder brother.

In Inkspell, after Dustfinger makes a deal with the White Women to offer his life in exchange for bringing Farid back, Roxanne, Dustfinger's wife, furiously tells Farid that he ought to be dead instead of Dustfinger. Why? Because Roxanne wouldn't let Orpheous use Word Power to try to bring him back, and Farid disagreed with her. This made its way onto the Dethroning Moment of Suck page.

In Skip Beat!, Rick died in a car accident and this event caused Kuon to fall into an Angst Coma. Since Rick was only running after Kuon to stop him from getting into another fight and got hit by a car, there's quite a lot of guilt on Kuon's side. Not helped by the blonde woman that cradled the dead Rick and not only said this trope to Kuon but also called him a murderer. The only way Kuon got himself out of this Angst Coma was to become Ren Tsuruga. And when he almost gets into a car accident on a set involving a little child, he suffers horrible flashbacks.

H₂O: Footprints in the Sand: In a flashback, Hinata's grandfather wishes that Hotaru, whom we had known to this point as Hinata, had died instead of her sister. So much that he forces her to steal her sister's identity and renounce her room, her hobbies, and anything that made Hotaru distinct from the real Hinata. No wonder it hurts when the townspeople gossip that it was better that Hinata survived and Hotaru died.

In Peacemaker Auggie repeatedly compares his surviving son unfavorably to his brother and says he should have been the one that died. What we see of him suggests that had he lived he would have been just as big a disappointment to his father, sharing many of the traits he considers Peacemaker's flaws (such as a love of rock and roll and not being a white supremacist).

The day after Patrice O'neal died, fellow comedian Colin Quinn, while appearing on an impromptu memorial show on SiriusXM's Opie & Anthony, noted that he received several tweets from Patrice's fans wishing that he had died instead. He went on to say that Amy Schumer, who made several jokes at Patrice's expense during Comedy Central's Charlie Sheen roast, received messages stating that they hoped she got ovarian cancer.
Also from Schumer at the Sheen roast, she had remarked to Jackass star Steve-O about how he must have felt when his good friend and co-star Ryan Dunn died in a car wreck months earlier that "It could have been me" only for her to say that many people wished it had been him.

Escape the Night: After Matt misreads an instruction whilst performing an exorcism, he ends killing Sierra on accident. Sierra’s friends, Eva and Lele, are understandably furious. Not helping the situation is the fact that Matt was not on good terms with the girls and had earlier revealed himself to be a Dirty Coward. Sierra’s death was truly an accident but Matt’s previous actions paint him in a very bad light.

There's a bit of this in Dragon Age: Inquisition after The Reveal. Leliana at one point asks the Inquisitor why Divine Justinia died while the Inquisitor lived. The Inquisitor can respond that one of them was going to die in that situation no matter what, and Justinia herself wanted the Inquisitor to live. Leliana takes comfort in the knowledge that Justinia died the way she lived: helping other people.

Late in Aunt Dimity's Christmas, Lady Haverford admits to provoking this in her brother Christopher Anscombe-Smith (known as variously as "Kit" and "Smitty"), the vagrant who collapsed in Lori's driveway. He had questioned the glory of their father's actions in WWII, and the father compiled a memoir of his unit's bombing raids in an effort to explain himself to his son. Some ten years later, the father hanged himself and Lady Haverford blamed her brother for causing the suicide. The brother took this accusation to heart, gave away his wealth, lived as a vagrant, and performed a variety of good deeds along the way.

In Hellblazer, John Constantine gets this a lot. A lot of times, the people saying it are right. Even Constantine agrees. To rub salt in it, when we see another universe where John's stillborn brother survived instead of him, he's well-adjusted and liked, implying that it really should have been John.

In Stand by Me, Gordy was never as understood or loved by his parents as his athletic big brother, who was killed in a car crash a year before the film. He has a Past Experience Nightmare at one point, being at the funeral, and hearing his father say, "It should have been you, Gordon." While this might be All Just a Dream, Gordy mentions another detail about the funeral a moment later as it were true...

In The Book of Life, when Maria has (seemingly) been killed by a snake that was about to bite Manolo, Manolo thinks it should have been him, and Joaquin says yes, it should have. He regrets this when Manolo is later found dead after accepting Xibalba's deal.

In the Warrior Cats Expanded Universe novel Crookedstar's Promise, Thistleclaw says that Bluestar should have died instead of her recently deceased twin sister Snowfur, who was also his mate.
Inverted in The Last Hope, where Graystripe tells a recently-killed Firestar that he would have taken his place if he could.

In No Game No Life, near the start of Volume 6/the movie, Riku orders Ivan, a fellow human, to make a Heroic Sacrifice to enable everyone else to escape. When Riku gets home and delivers the bad news to Ivan's daughter, Nonna, Nonna bursts into tears and says Riku should have died instead.

In Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Wormtail tries to justify to Harry, Sirius, and Lupin his betrayal of Lily and James Potter, claiming that Voldemort would have killed him if he hadn't told him where they were. Sirius shouts furiously, "THEN YOU SHOULD HAVE DIED! Died rather than betray your friends, as we would have done for you!" Justified in that Sirius isn't saying that, all other things held equal, it would have been better for Peter to die than James and Lily; rather, he's specifically berating Peter for giving up his friends to save his own skin.

Played with in the Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic fic Where I Reign. Arba, who is trying to complete her Grand Theft Me on her daughter Hakuei's body, tries to torment her into giving up the will to live and stop fighting her for control. This includes telling her how inferior she is to her dead father and brothers, and how little her life is worth compared to theirs. Hakuei...agrees.

Millennium (1996): In the third season, Mr. Miller tells Frank that he wishes Frank had died instead of Catherine. This is a fairly understandable case, as almost any family would choose their daughter over their son-in-law if push came to shove.
There is also the matter that Catherine's death was linked to the Ancient Conspiracy Frank was involved with. Although Mr. Miller never found out about the full truth, he nevertheless suspected that there was more to her death than it seems and thus holds Frank responsible for it.

Invoked in spirit in The Amazing Spider-Man: True Purpose when Spider-Man and Charles Xavier are killed during the war against the Phoenix Five and Spider-Man comes back to life while Charles Xavier stays dead. Various characters observe that when only one Avenger and one X-Man died in the conflict, certain X-Men in particular are likely to be angry that the founder of the X-Men is the one who didn’t get to come back.

Dragon Ball Z:
In the Saiyan Saga, a freshly mourning Bulma tells Yajirobe that he should have been killed by the Saiyans instead of Yamcha, Tien, Chiaotzu, and Piccolo, after he basically told the other characters "Hey, I'm still alive, you know!". Given that Yajirobe spent most of the battle hiding from Nappa and Vegeta instead of fighting alongside the heroes, Bulma wasn't necessarily in the wrong for being angry at him.
The Buu Saga has more of an indirect example than most, but after Buu destroys the Earth, Vegeta calls Goku out on making an effort to save Dende and Mr. Satan, as it resulted in them leaving behind their own sons (and Piccolo), who were all subsequently killed in the explosion. Granted, it's hard to blame Goku for that specifically, as Satan and Dende were on the way to the drop-off point, and Vegeta (who hadn't stopped to grab them) likely wouldn't have been able to make it to the boys anyway. However, given the circumstances, it's also hard to call Vegeta out on this, as shown when Dende can do nothing but offer a meek "sorry" as an apology. However, the decision pays off with Mr. Satan's interference in the battle with Kid Buu, as it allows the good portions of Majin Buu to escape from his evil side's body. And it really pays off when Dende goes to Namek and uses their Dragon Balls to restore the Earth and revive everyone killed by Buu, and Mr. Satan's influence helps to convince the people of Earth to lend Goku their energy for the Spirit Bomb.

In the Chronicles of the Kencyrath short story "Hearts of Woven Shadow", Gerraint Highlord's favoritism of his eldest son Greshan extends to openly telling his younger son Ganth that he should have been the one to die (despite the fact that this is nonsensical—Ganth was nowhere near when Greshan died).

SHUFFLE!: Eight years prior to the story, both of Rin's parents and Kaede's mother are killed in a car accident. Kaede became traumatized from the incident, losing her will to live. Rin overhears the doctor saying that she needs a reason, any reason, to live. Rin then goes to Kaede and tells her that on the night of the accident, he was lonely and phoned his parents, asking them to come back. Since his parents and Kaede's mother rode in the same car, he essentially told Kaede that it was his fault that her mother died. This causes Kaede to snap out of her stupor and she tries to strangle Rin to death. Rin manages to escape, but since Kaede's father has taken Rin into their home, Rin must constantly put up with Kaede's deep hatred of him. While putting on a front of being friends with Rin around her father, Kaede does such things as vandalizing Rin's room, dropping a box-cutter on his face so that it slices his eye while he's coming up the stairs, locks him out of the house when it's raining, and goes outside to meet him where she tells him "I don't understand. Why did my mother have to die, while someone like you still gets to live? I wish you were dead. I mean it! Just die!" Once she finds out that it was actually indirectly her fault that her mother died (she had fallen ill, and her father asked her mother and Rin's parents to come home) she then spends the next few years of her life completely devoting herself to Rin in an attempt to make up for how she treated him during their childhood.

Never Have I Ever: Hours before her dad died, Devi heard her mom tell him that she was tired of putting up with Devi and she was through with her, saying she was no longer her child. A year later, a fight with her mom triggers the memory, and Devi tearfully tells her that she wished her mom had died that night instead.
