How do people who want to live forever (or something like this) renormalize their everyday approach to life and relationships? I mean, children and parents move apart with each passing day (normally), and if you imagine living for at least a hundred years, how do you keep yourself interested in older links? It seems this would take a lot more effort.

Mostly, out of habit. I have a hard time imagining a world where commitment 'until death do us part' (not necessarily marriage) is no longer a staple of my existence. It was just a duty which we were taught.
