If you haven't shared time with someone in 1,000 years or 1,000,000 years, of what special significance is that time spent. At each moment, our pasts are finite. This is the case whether you live an eternity, or merely 100 years. How does an infinite life span add meaning in a way that is categorically different than what 100 years does?
I actually have the complete opposite extreme viewpoint to him. To me, time doesn't matter at all, only the acute intensity of peak experiences.
