How very true.
From time to time, at the shopping centre I notice some unfortunate looking old lady, and think something like "Gee, what an old boiler" or something equally as sensitive.
Then another thought occurs "Watch it mate, she could easily be one of your old girlfriends!*** It's also been a very long time since you were love's young dream, if you ever were"
Yes, time humiliates us, then it kills us.
***my first serious girlfriend is now a weary 72 year old. I'm delighted to be able to say that I heard that my ex wife has grown, but only in circumference.
