Next Stop, Cougar Town!

Well I must say this, the young men are loving me. I have, in the past, been approached by a "young buck" every now and then, but now it seems more the norm than an abnormality.
Where did my twenties go? Where are the days when it was the older men that approached me at age 25. Now I find myself at a point in my life where I'm too old for dating a man in my age range (they want the younger girl) but I am perfect for a young man that needs to get more experience and maturity. 

At first I used to be flattered thinking that maybe it's because I look young but as I become wiser and since I have spoken with a few men I have realized that these young bucks know I am older! Go figure! So, in essence I'm the old chick! I am the older woman who is perfect for teaching the children the ropes. 

Should I be insulted or take it all in stride? And it's not like these fellows are 3-4 years my junior, I'm talking 7-10 years my junior! Holly crap, I thought when I started to do the math. That's like a freshman in college, dating a senior in elementary school! Definitely not sexy. I cringe. And yes I know that the older you get the less significant a few years are but I'm not that old-yet. 


Most of us women say,
Don't get me wrong some of these young bucks are quite strapping to say the least, but I'm still having an issue with the age difference. Maybe if we were in the same decade with the age I could do it. This is the plight of the Grown N Sexy woman. 

But in this day and age, should I (we) accept a younger man or hold on to that plight? Part of me says, if he looks good on and off paper, and he is interested, then why not? Is it better to be with someone who is interested in You or is it better to force yourself, as a grown and sexy woman, on a man who doesn't want You, only tolerates You and is waiting for the next best thing, in his mind, to come along? 

Looking at this in a positive light, maybe we can engage in some new experiences and positions that "older men" now, cannot or care not to do with me. 

I guess I will continue on my journey for better sexperiences and relationships with whom ever is interested in me, within in reason.  And IF it happens to be with a younger man, then so be it! And if I am prematurely labeled a cougar even though I don't fully fit the definition, so be it! I'm on the train! And I'm riding it.  Next stop- Cougar Town baby! Am I wrong?
