CLEARLY COUGAR

I cringe everytime i hear about this 'cougar' tingy. We are living in the 21st century, a modern world ,yet women are still judged in the most steriotypical ways. Traditionally women have always been represented as weak, vulnerable , too trusting. Historically in a happy heterosexual relationship , the expectation is that , the men... should be older, for only then, they are able to provide and protect . Older men are typecast as being more powerful. I think that this concept is more fluid now. If you are a woman , you probably more independant and more assertive than your mother . There are more successful women now and they are able to take care of the financial side of the relationship. And quite frankly that do not mind to contribute a bigger share.

The essence of a successful relationship is compatability , character , compassion and compromise. Ironically , sometimes its not found in age. While older men may provide all the material wealth , the younger could provide a listening ear. There is a difefrence between litening passively and listening agressively. To listen with your heart , your listening has to be active! Older men tend to be a little bit more egoistic. Check your ego at the door as they say. An egoistist can be described not only as some who thinks too much about himself but also someone who thinks too little for other. Alternative thinking work , i guess? Understand what brings fulfillment in a relationships. Ultimately the things that brings fulfillment involves another and maybe that exactly what's happening in a cougar relationship. To those that's in this relationships dont let the narrow minds of the misinformed infringe on your happiness.
