I think this because, first off, you have no memmory of your past. Secondly, you are from afar away land, like Lordran or so. And since the ending where you refuse to light The First Flame is cannon for Dark Souls ll, isn't it a distinct possability?

First, having no memory of the past means nothing. All undead lose their memories eventually, as shown by Lucatiel and most of the merchants you talk with.
Second, there is no cannon ending for Dark Souls, as the entire premise of Dark Souls II is that the First Flame has been linked again and again and again in a constant cycle. Whether or not the Chosen Undead took the Link the Fire ending is irrelevant, because someone else would have anyway.
So no, it isn't a distinct possibility, since even if the Chosen Undead didn't sacrifice their own life to the First Flame, someone else did, and therefore would have staved off the Curse. You're also talking about a time span of hundreds, maybe thousands of years between Lordran and Drangleic. Meaning the Chosen Undead would have aged and died, assuming they weren't just killed by a Demon, Giant, or some other surviving monstrosity.

can the undead die of old age? that seems unlikely.

The Soul may die, or atleast lose its memory, but it seems that Hollow bodies could truly die only while the first flame is lit.
Food for thought though, (also kinda off topic speculation) question is did the first flame burn on souls alone? And does it just recycle or consume souls completely? I'm all for the recycling theory. Hollows found souls of Lords within the flame, as well as the Dark Soul, and took them. Once humanity spread around, population grew (cuz you find baby skellies). Then for one reason or another, Hollows could truly die as humans, but that could suggest that they weren't linked to the flame anymore, and that their soul and Humanity didn't get sent back to the flame, which is why it faded.
Who truly knows though? The Cursed undead could very well possess either same hollow body or soul as the one that belonged to the Chosen undead, though probly not.

For me, i'd like to think that the bearer of the curse is just a reincarnation of the chosen undead

Maybe chosen undead is dead but what if his/her soul has passed along for eons and the bearer of the curse has the same soul inside of him/her
