Cougars!!! Actually I really dislike that term, you don’t hear anyone labeling men who date younger women or perhaps we should label them. How about “wannabees” or “hounddogs” or….. anyhow let me not get into full rant mode. Our confession today comes all the way from sunny Barbados and this lady is not a happy bunny at all and she wrote this….

I am so tired of this BS. I just want people to leave me alone so me and my man can live and be happy. I really do not understand why so many people are getting in my business. Not a day goes by without one of my family members calling me and telling me how stupid or how selfish I am, or how embarrassing it is for them being related to me. Carol you would think that I had raped somebody’s child or something.

All I did was fall in love with a younger man. If I was a man nobody would have a word to say. In fact people would be congratulating him for making a great catch. Other men would be jealous of his conquest. But because I am a woman I am the worst thing in the world. I am tired of this crap and I feel like picking up my child and going back where I came from but I cannot do that to my child’s father as he is a good man and a great father.

My boyfriend and I love each other very much and if it was not for people harassing us we would be perfectly happy. Is my boyfriend a good provider? Yes. Does he respect and love me and my daughter? Yes. Does he help around the home? Yes. Is he a good lover? Yes. So why is everyone determined to break us up? Simply because he is 26 and I am 57. Yes he is younger than my oldest grandchild but surely everyone can see that we are happy, why can’t they just leave us alone Carol?

Thanks for listening

Hi BJK, the debate about women dating younger man will rage until the end of time and I doubt that there is anything we women can do to stop it. So all I would tell you is try to do your best to ignore those that want to make you and your partner miserable because at the end of the day it’s alright for them to tell you to get rid of your boyfriend but it is you that would have to sleep alone every night. And do you really want to be alone and miserable just to please other people who have partners?

Over to you folks!!

Should BJK leave her man to please her friends and family?

Is her partner way too young for her?

Or should she live her life as she sees fit?

Let Us Know In The Box Below!!

Peace
