Also: The people don’t change. The pool of people your age that you could meet doesn’t change, it only gets smaller.
That seems pretty obvious
What’s less obvious is the decrease in population growth. People are having less kids which means that at some point there will be more older people than younger people and that the infrastructure will be overbuilt.
In the end, there can be only one
I don’t use Facebook but was searching to see if anyone had uploaded a photo I no longer had a copy of from high school. It’s only been 20-something years, but the number of obituaries I ran across was surprising. We’re all in our early 40s from a small school and the percentage who died seemed high. A couple in war, but medical issues, drugs, and most of all, car crashed.
People almost always change over time. It’s why divorces happen over “where’s the girl/guy I married”? They don’t exist anymore, they’ve grown and adapted to life around them.
