I think I've crossed an age threshold where certain things completely elude my comprehension. Is this what it's like to get old?

Yeah, the more I age, the more conservative I become. I find myself speaking like my mother

My husband asked me how I became so conservative, and I told him it was because of him. He wasn't quite sure what I meant, and it took me awhile to work it out in my head.

I have a friend who is a newly minted therapist, she talks about how she thinks all of this nonsense is due to attachment deficiencies ("attachment" here is to be understood in the technical psychological sense). I agree with her 100%, and that is what I meant in response to my husband. Once you become securely attached you understand its value, and you understand how the tidal-waves of nonsense that come mostly from the left side of the aisle work against attachment and are likely the result of insecure or disordered attachment.

This is exactly why I think so many people who suddenly find themselves with a lot of money spend it all on two things: hookers and blow. The lack of any real attachment to someone.
