    Neat, now realize that the same thing is happening to you; that 5yo kid you used to be is just as dead as if they got hit by a car.

    I would argue that a past-tense love is evidence of a past-tense YOU.

      As the Discordians say, “In five years, a complete stranger with your memories will inhabit your body. But don’t fret; another five years and they’ll be gone as well.”
