Over here, we've heard of the term 'Cougar', I never heard the term Puma. Loving it
I'll be honest, I wouldn't be comfortable dating anyone more than one to two years younger than me. When I was in my 20's I had a boyfriend 11 years older but we didn't last as he tended to treat me based upon my age, like I was an "age appropriate bimbo" and he was some kind of wise owl.
My daughter flagged up how uncomfortable I was with being a potential cougar though. I went into our local Game store looking for a game for her console and a very young chap (late 20's?) took an uneasy interest in me. I originally interpreted it as excellent customer service until he began to ignore other customers to help me. My face flushed purple and I practically grabbed my little son, made excuses about shopping for said item online and ran out the store.
So my dd overheard me getting teased by my friends about the incident (made the mistake of sharing it with them). Months later I returned to the store - the dude was still there. I saw him spot me and he began to make his way from around the counter and head towards me. My dd spotted how uncomfortable I suddenly got and as she saw me shooting at speed out the door, she began to put this whining little voice on about why was mommy leaving the store when we just got there!
So no, not Cougar material here!
