This is a public service announcement for men everywhere.
If you consider yourself a Lothario,
If you regularly refer to yourself as “the man” (and believe it),
If you have deemed yourself a lover of all ladies,
You are mistaken.
This is doubly true if the object of your attention is half your age, and you are unwilling to acknowledge that you passed your prime back in the era of wide lapels, shirts unbuttoned to the waist, and cologne baths.
Sometimes, teetering on the edge of exhaustion and distraction, I suspect that my daily dose of skin crawl is the only thing keeping me alive. But don’t be too quick to congratulate yourself. I would far rather toe that precipice than spend another moment in your company.
Thank you for your attention.
Jenni
