Age & Wisdom

When it comes to dating and relationships I learned today (again) that age does not equal wisdom on how to navigate the murky waters.

While I wouldn't characterize the person I spoke with this morning as a cougar, she is treading on thin ice with a relationship that could make her be perceived as one.

Needless to say she was astonished when I told her there was no way that I would date someone old enough to be my father or that I'd do the reverse either. I tried to sugarcoat it by saying I've always prayed for direction and God hasn't led me to date a man my father's age when the opportunities arose in the past.

Not surprisingly, because she's happy with her situation I'm pretty sure based on her pratically school-girl manner of describing the guy (who is my age!!!) and his flirting techniques, she is not going to end their relationship-her word not mine- any time soon.

*sigh* all the good ones are married, gay or with an older woman it seems...
