not all older partners are looking to take advantage - myself, as older cougar material - I'd say it has usually been quite the other way around.....jmho

smokin Lots of good advice here.

Bottom line. Age isn't the issue. I date younger all the time.

Respect IS.

I was in a LTR with a guy 1/2 my age for 3 yrs. The biggest thing that sold me on dumping him was the disrespect. No one needs that. EVER. You put up with it, it becomes YOUR issue, not his. :wink:

Should be only one word when it comes to him hon ..


((((((((((( NEXT!!! ))))))))))
I had problems with disrespect from 2 of my 3 way younger boyfriends. What is up with that? While it is somewhat comforting to read about it happening to other women also - so I know it's not just somethng about ME.....it is disheartening to hear that it is so prevalent.

I am thinking that perhaps it has become more socially acceptable because of things like some of the ***** rap music they listen to, the disrespectful speech that has been the norm on televised conversations for their generation on sitcoms....examples such as those. To me, those things are issues, but to our guys they may seem like normal stuff, part of their subculture unless they are taught diffrently.

Or, maybe they think they can get away with more with us because older women are more tolerant. To that I'd say it's a mistake to take me for granted..... ask my last and most recent ex........
