Cougar Love – 5 Hot Reasons for Single Midlife Women to Consider Dating Younger Men
One of the current hot trends in Midlife and Baby Boomer Dating is the Cougar Dating Phenomenon. Women from 40-85 date and seek out younger men for their life partners.
Hot Reason 1. Chemistry
Some people might call it lust. And many people’s initial comment is often along the lines of, “Oh you know they just looking for….” However, what is so delightful is there is sufficient difference in your lives and generations to create and add sexual chemistry, lust and spice to the combination. With men your own age, dating can almost feel like warm fuzzy slippers. Really comfy… but no spice for excitement. As mature women in their sexual prime, you really want more than that in a relationship.
Hot Reason 2. Masculine Pursuit
Young men have sufficient testosterone that they are chemically and biologically wired to pursue women. They younger men actively pursue. There is less wondering if he is interested in you or how interested he is in you because he is phoning, emailing, and texting to get to be with you and often. They are gentlemen who open doors and pay for the date no questions asked. We’re ladies. Who doesn’t thoroughly love and enjoy it when a man opens the door, pays for the date, bring us flowers and treats us like the precious gem ladies we are? It’s like gold to our hearts. My point exactly. Enjoy it, girlfriend!
Hot Reason 3. Less Baggage
Most of the single guys in the 20 something to 30 something age range have not yet been married. Also, they likely do not already have kids. The relationships are simpler. There are no shared custody issues, or if there are, it hasn’t been an issue for 10 years or more. Babysitting and childcare issues are often easier.
They are in the age range where they are still climbing career ladder and really appreciate a mature woman who understands and knows how to be social hostess for their corporate of single business owner enterprise. They are not in competition with you over your career because your careers are at different phases. For single boomer women, that can be extremely attractive, indeed.
Hot Reason 4. Relationship Oriented
Many men in their late 20s and early 30s are actually quite relationship oriented. So are men in their 40, 50s, and 60 for the senior ladies in their 50s, 60s, and 70 plus. When dating an older women, they will introduce and show you off to their friends. They want to bring you with them to family functions like Thanksgiving and Christmas. They are looking to create and develop the relationship with you and knit you into their lives.
Hot Reason 5. Looking to Pair Up and Settle Down
Frankly, studies demonstrate that the late 20s to early 30s is one of the prime Marriage-Seeking times in a man’s life. So is the time period right after college and directly proceeding graduate school. Work the law of averages and let them be on your side. Those are men who are looking to pair up and settle down, and many of them actively desire a relationship with an attractive woman with some emotional and relationship maturity.
Those are 5 of the hot reasons to for single boomer women to consider cougar love and dating younger men. Enjoy the pursuit ladies!
Happy Dating and Relationships!

September 15, 2009 at 8:55 AMHi Martin,
thanks for stopping by. Right now my blog I’m focusing on the topic of Cougar Dating, so you might not resonate with this week’s theme. I do have a ton of articles at my main website. Also, what topics around dating and relationships do you want addressed? I’ll see if I can address some of them in the weeks and months ahead after I am back from delivering my 2 workshops about ONLINE DATING SUCCESS.

September 16, 2009 at 7:36 PMI think younger guys are curious about older women. I know I was when I was in my 20s.
Also, the age range you list for men wanting to settle down is exactly correct. For example, I got married when I was 29, and I was looking to settle down around that time.

I was looking through some video sites, paying attention to the videos that were getting high number of views and were videos of basically power point presentations and screen cams – there are some pretty cool, but simple to do videos…
while doing that, I came across this link, I just chuckled, I had never heard of Cougar Dating before…
