Two stories, neither exciting.
For my 40th, I threw a huge party. As I was bringing up the last of the party stuff, I suddely realized by male-chauvanistic brother and my hyperfeminist girlfriend were alone together. I ran upstairs but to my amazement, they were talking civilly.
One thing that almost wrecked my party was the sheer number of the you're-getting-old birthday cards. There were dozens of them, and cumulatively, they had their effect. Four months after my birthday, a former girlfriend of mine -- who is very sensitive about her age -- had hers. I sent a card saying:
Oooh, I got cudos for that one.

By now, you've received a ton of birthday cards from your "friends" telling you that you're losing your looks and that you're over the hill.
That bad news is that that's true. The good news is that your have more good looks left over than what most women have to start with, so don't worry about it. Hubba, hubba.
