I love Jeff and Tim but...

I will preface this with I LOVE JEFF BUCKLEY FOREVER AND EVER. And this totally seemed like what he'd be like to hang out with. But I've known a lot of Jeffs in my day, not nearly as talented, but that type of guy, and I totally felt for the girl following him around trying to figure him out. All too familiar with the artist types. In my 30s I've lost patience for that type but in my teens and 20s, I ate it up. It did make me sad to think I would have outgrown Jeff as a friend if I ever knew him. I know a guy like that right now. Still talented and attractive but suddenly in his 30s, he's not able to charm the women like he used to. What happens when these types grow up? Do they realize people don't have time to sit around and have BS philosophical conversations anymore? Or do the just wander into a river not thinking about the consequences? :(
