Any ideas? |
Here's hoping that things went well for ya.
Anyway, my comment to add to this is that some cougars are afraid of what others might think, many don't have those reservations.
In my case, she had no kids, and her parents had passed away. She wasn't particularly close to her siblings, so only had her friends and co-workers as people she associated with. So, to her, there wasn't anyone around her that would've had an issue with who she dated, so she freely reveled in it, although she did not want to meet my family
At the time, we were only casually dating, which turned into a friends with benefits, so I didn't mind if she didn't want to be known to my family. Near the end of our one month involvement though, she had developed quite the emotional attachment (and started making demands that I wasn't able to fulfill). She probably wanted to become more serious as a couple, and I didn't really know if her view on not meeting my family had changed, but if I'm going to be in a serious relationship with someone, they will have to eventually meet my family.
