Face up to it. You are no longer young — but you are not old either. You are somewhere in between. Have fun certainly but do it sensibly and at no risk to your health, family or future. Don’t be the fool at the party who pays the bills and takes the gang back to his place for a nightcap and some music. Be the man people want to invite to their parties, the one they look forward to seeing but the one who goes home at a reasonable hour, his image intact, with his friendships close and valuable rather than transient.

The same reservations apply to dressing-young. Let people like you for what you are not the fake image you are projecting. Life is not passing you by; you are just not the man you were many years ago.

A London therapist says: a man who projects a false image of himself, through clothes or the way he lives, fools himself. In the long run living-young and dressing-young, whether he does either consciously or subconsciously, only contribute to making life less easy in the future. If he is not careful he will find the fact that he is getting older over the next few years the most depressing years of his life. The gap between forty and middle-age is not much. The sooner he adjusts to the changes the better and, quite likely, the more successful he will be. The forties really can be the best years.
