Samantha with Smith in SATC- the ultimate cougar!
Lately, I have found myself dating a younger guy, among others. His age goes against everything I stand for. I have always stood by my rule of not dating anyone younger than me, whether it is 6 months younger or 5 years younger, it makes no difference. All who know me are shocked that I have been seeing “young man” for the last couple of weeks- but the heart wants what it wants right?
Out of the 5 men that I am dating he has been the one whose company I have enjoyed. He is the perfect gentleman in every way, which has surprised me as he is so young. He refuses to even let me get my wallet out. He puts the rich men I have dated to shame with his generosity. He makes me feel looked after-which gives me a lovely fuzzy feeling- mmmmmmm!!!
Our first date was meeting for drinks at a bar in Camden. I had allocated him an hour and a half to impress me, before I had to leave for my dinner plans at 7pm. Just after 5pm I met my date who was waiting for me outside the bar- how gentlemanly right? He walked me in and straight to the bar where he paid for our drinks. We looked for a place to sit, and I spotted a comfy sofa and which we settled down on.
Our conversations flowed, and flowed, which I loved, and as my glass emptied he stood up and went to the bar and refilled it without asking- amazing manners!!! Before I knew it, it was time for me to leave. I found myself disappointed that I had made other plans. I made my excuses to leave and he responded in insisting that he walk me out. I protested but he left his half drunk beer and said that he would love to walk me out- OMG swoon right?
He walked me to the bus stop and we kissed, on the cheek naturally, it was the first date after all. He followed the date with a text, a couple of hours later, saying that he enjoyed himself. Then 48 hours later he asked me out again, and I declined, I am a Rules girl after all, but instead made arrangements for a movie date in 5 days time.
What I love about “young man” is that he is not afraid to let me know he likes me. He shows this by being a total gentleman and making sure I am taken care off. It has been a long time since I have felt taken care off. The other guys I have dated in the last few weeks have come across as if they were paying because later they expect a return- as if- but with “young man” it feels like it is because it is just what a gentleman does.
Lastly, I know that he is so wrong for me in every way. He is my Harry in many ways, well maybe my Smith due to the age but is it wrong for me to be with someone who clearly adores me? Well I plan to continue to drown in my confusion and see “young man” again. He makes me feel great and he also has lips that beg to be kissed, and it is on this note that I end with a “to be continued....”
