I know some of you must be thinking that I'm now obsessed with cougar/cub relationships. I'm not. A guest blogger, who asked to remain anonymous sent me this post. I was in hysterics and I was happy that I wasn't the only one that felt sceptical about dating a younger man. This post was based on real events which explains why the blogger asked to remain private and I was present when this all happened, we were all young and in college hence the curfew. Did I just spoil it? She should have known better! Enjoy!

So, there you are standing in front of your friends who so desperately want to laugh, as he leaves your house. OMG I wanted the ground to open and swallow me whole. However, this young boy was sweet because the next time he went out bowling he bought me earrings. It was cute. They were these small "gold and diamond" studs that were in a small blue box. They looked a bit cheap but hey, it was the thought that counts right? How do you live down a situation where he buys you jewellery for £4.99 from Argos as a means to court you. Ok I’m not going to be mean. After all that’s probably as far as he could stretch his EMA money. I guess if you aren’t looking for a serious relationship all this can be avoided and you can have your fling during the day under wraps and no one has to know.
The plus side of dating a younger man is that they make you feel equally as young as they are. The idea of being older gives you a false sense of experience and power. And as an added bonus, they are much more adventurous compared to guys your own age, maybe because there is a need to constantly please in an effort to prove their man hood and ability to satisfy an older woman.
But be warned, the good things are few and far between. Make sure you don’t get caught in a situation where he brings his own bottled drink into a restaurant you are supposedly having dinner, all because he budgeted on a quarter chicken and chips with no bottomless drink. LOL. Please don’t let me put you off, just always make sure you have a little extra so you can get a bottomless drink, assuming that option is there. Then he’ll know to wait for you to finish drinking so he can have one too.
