He couldn't turn back because the conspirators would not be able to go on without him & Brutus did not want that, he was afraid of a Rome with tyranny & did not want Caesar to make this into what Rome would become. If Brutus were to back out he could be turned in for betrayal against Caesar even if it was short lived.
Marcus Antony wanted revenge against Marcus Brutus and Cassius for killing Julius Caesar, so he, Octavius Caesar, and Lepidus decide to send their armies to attack the armies of Brutus and Cassius in the second half of the play.
Caesar might have thought that Brutus joined the conspiracy because he disliked Caesar himself, though that was not true. Brutus loved and respected Caesar and was a very dear friend to him, so killing Caesar was a very difficult thing for Brutus to do; though Brutus did that for the sake of Rome because he believed that Caesar would have nothing but a bad influence towards the people of Rome. So, Brutus' motivations for joining the conspiracy were to unwillingly murder Caesar but save Rome itself. After all, Brutus turned out to be more loyal to Rome than to Caesar!
It is unknown what part of Caesar's body was stabbed by Brutus. It is a certainty that Brutus, as one of the chief conspirators took part of Caesar's assassination.
Both of the Brutii. Marcus Brutus and Decius Brutus were both Caesar's friends, Decius even being mentioned in Caesar's will.
Being captured would be a disgrace and rob him of his honor.
refuse to go back to Rome in chains

Cato is Mark Antony's son and he says he is a friend of Rome and enemy to tyrants. He charges the "tyrant" (Brutus). Brutus says he is a friend of Rome and charges back. Cato is overwhelmed, falls and dies.
Brutus' language throughout Shakespeare's tragedy shows his reverence ofJulius Caesar, believe it or not. This comes as a surprise to most people, because Brutus actually delivers the final stab to Caesar. Brutus has always liked Caesar, but as a friend. He feels that he can't stand around and let Rome fall into a monarchy or dictatorship and him not do anything, so he joins the conspiracy against Caesar. Brutus feels like his Public Responsibility comes before his Personal Responsibility. Brutus is actually a very noble man, contradictory to his name, and Shakespeare set it to be this way. By summarizing or paraphrasing the play into terms one can understand, it becomes visible that Brutus regrets what he believes he must do to better Rome, but has to do it anyways, again showing his nobility and his Public responsibility over Personal Responsibility.Marcus Brutus was a friend to Julius Ceasar, but not good enough. He had moral values dealing with Rome and its people. Brutus' values then made him join as an conspiracy against Ceasar put together with Cassius. Brutus joined this mainly because he didn't Ceasar to turn hisd back on Rome so that there would be a reasonable reason for killing Ceasar. If Brutus wasn't in the play, there would be no "Tragedy " in The Tragedy of Julius Ceasar.

He doesn't want to commit suicide. He thinks it is "cowardly and vile". Before the consperiasy Portia askes him to tell whats the matter, and he doesnt want to tell Cassius asks himfor for the reason of all Romans would be after him. And same responce. Many believe his life like Cato, his step-father by stabbing himself to not see somethign happened to the one thing they aare protecting they saw Rome become corrupt after Caesar comes to power. After killing him most conspirators kill themself . (Fun fact every conspirator who stabbed Caesar ever served him more than 3 years) Ok. Yeah he doesnt want to commit suicide but he also said that he had to. He said if the conspirators purpouse was discovered that he will slay himself. Casca, be sudden, for we fear prevention -Brutus, what shall be done? If this be known, Cassius or Caesar never shall turn back, For I will slay myself. The other reason for him thinking of commiting is if Rome did not win the war. Him talking to Portia was him just keeping the secret of killing Caesar from her. suicide had nothing to do with it. she stabbed herself just to prove to brutus that she is a strong woman. and just because her dad Cato committed doesnt mean she will. Later on she did kill herself by swollowing hot coals. but really that has nothing to do with why brutus thinks he must. i hope mu answer helped.
