About Me

My photo
It has been 6 years since I started this blog. It remains "live" because I know that there is someone else out there who can relate to what I felt during that time. Who knows how many people get dumped everyday, the numbers must be high. We live in a " Me-me-me" world where respect and truth have diminished as good character traits in favor of shallow and selfish behavior. I just want to share with you that there is light on the other side. That recovery is a slow process to allow you to come out whole and healthier. We all deserve love. None of us deserve to be treated like something you trade in. Take the time you need to heal, you will be stronger for it.

Cougar Crap

Cougar..it's a distasteful expression, and unfortunately. I see if everywhere...spam mail..facebook, etc.
I am no different with age then I was 10 years ago. I am not predatory. I don't chase after younger men..hell..I don't chase after any man for that matter.  But, because of my age bracket I am grouped in the sadly over the hill and desperate gang.

Bullshit.

I do not feel nor act as though I am one foot in the grave. I despise men who place this misnomer upon me. What the hell do you call a man who is 20 years senior to his girl? Society calls him lucky. What is the difference between men and women when it comes to dating younger? Nothing. Except that we still live in a male dominated world. A woman who dates someone younger is some sort of predator...what gives:?

Any man who looks for, and captures a woman far his junior in age is just as much as a predator as a woman would be. More so actually, since that theme seems to be encouraged as something 'good.'
I don't see the difference because there is none.

So what do we call men who actively look for younger women?

Assholes.
