” He had been truly in love with her – he saw that now – but as much as he missed her, he knew that he could live without her. That was the worst thing about growing older. that was the worst thing of all. Realising that you could keep living without anyone, when it came to the crunch, when it came to say goodbye and good luck, take care of yourself and lets be friends, realising that we are all ultimately alone, taking our pleasure where we can.
When you finally know that you can’t die of a broken heart, he though, then you know you are truly middle- aged”
