In general people do let themselves go - IMO.
Is it a necessary thing? Not at all.
Why do people do it? They are lazy. It's easier to let your looks deteriorate than it is to work out or watch what you eat. It's easy to become sex-negative, have a boring marriage, drift apart, stay together, turn inward, get depressed, get grouchy, become bitter at your failures, etc.
It takes effort to go against that tide.
Now here's the rub: all those folks who do that are the same ones who were young once- like you. So it's predictive that this will happen to you - because you will let it.
Does it have to happen? Not at all.
I knew Allen Ginsberg and Tim Leary as old men - and many more like them. They were way cool - totally fun people - totally sexy and creative - the opposite of boring.
There are a lot of things you can do to stay as young as you want for as long as you want. The fact is only a few of you will make the effort to do that. It's too bad, isn't it?
