Date a Cougar Tips

Well I think Jessica Simpson and Tony Romo’s relationship has been on the rocks for a while now, but who knew the final reason they would split up would be due to a hot cougar woman.

The cougar in question is actress Michelle Johnson (43). Mature Michelle, was just the hook up Tony was looking for, after his troubles, with much younger Jess. It all started as a boys’ night out as Tony and his mates hit the Hollywood clubs, but it wasn’t long before he had found someone to rebound with and Michelle was spotted exiting the Marquis Hotel where Tony was staying the following day looking rather sheepish.

Well he is not with Jess any more, so maybe Tony and Michelle would make a cute cougar couple.

As with any kind of relationship, there are times when a cougar and cub relationship just doesn’t work out. If you love the person you should take time to work on your relationship and make it a priority. Sometimes this means counseling and others it just means taking time to make an effort in your relationship. Here are some easy ways to add some spice to your relationship and keep your love and bond strong.

1. Put your relationship first - Sure, we all have a lot of different things going on in our lives, but without the love and fun of a relationship, the rest doesn’t seem all that important. If you both have busy schedules book your dates in advance and jot in some quiet time with your partner.

2. Remember the age difference, but don’t use it against your partner - Sometimes you will notice things about your partner that reflect their age. For example the music they like, or how they react to certain things. Before you lose your temper, because the music is too loud, remember how you were at that age. However be considerate of your partner. You may have to adjust some of your behavior for the relationship to work. All couples argue, but try not to insult your partner about their age. Do not assume that the problems you are having are just based on age and be willing to work on them.

3. Be open to your partner’s interests – Sure you may like different things, but it can be fun to try something new. I know it  is easy to get stuck in your ways, but life is so much better when you try new things.If you show interest in your partner’s passions, your bond will strengthen even more. This may mean trying new things in the bedroom, or when you go out on dates together.

4. Communicate – If there are genuine reasons why your partner is annoying you, then let them know. It is important not to keep things bottled up. Share your thoughts and feelings with each other. If your partner shares something with you, be willing to work on it. There is no shame in working on yourself and becoming a better person.

5. Don’t be too picky - Whilst you may sometimes have genuine reasons to be angry with your partner, it is important not to pick at every little thing. Ask yourself whether the problem is really a big deal, or something that  you can learn to live with. No one likes constant criticism. If you are always nagging your partner will end up switching off every time you speak to them.

6. Go out on dates - No matter how long you have been together, going out on dates is really fun and a great way to keep the spark in your relationship. Dress up nicely and go out to dinner or a movie, on a regular basis. Try new things together and talk to each other.Find out more about each other on each date.

7. Pay each other compliments – Telling your partner they look good and how much you appreciate them, will make them feel loved and special. Make sure to give genuine compliments on a regular basis.

8. Counselling - If things just aren’t working out consider getting professional help. A few counselling sessions could make all the difference to an important relationship.

With a little effort a long-term cougar and cub relationship can work out well. Don’t worry if your relationship does need some work. We all need help from time to time.

Maybe Denise Richards should read our casual sex dating article, as it seems that is what she is into. Hot and single Denise does not have a problem with hooking up with guys just for sex. She is respectful of her young daughters and does not want to expose them to random men, “You don’t want to bring them home to your house, but I have certain needs. Friends with benefits are awesome. I used to be like, ‘Oh no, you have to be in a relationship. But after going through a divorce, I’m like, ‘Life is short, I wanna have a good time.’”

If you are a single lady then why not? After her nasty break up from Charlie Sheen, Denise deserves some fun.

Gorgeous Kim Cattrall plays fiesty cougar Samantha on Sex and the City. For the last few years she has been a cougar in real life too, dating much younger chef, Alan Wyse. So why did they break it off? Recently Alan got an amazing new job as a personal chef to Howard Stern. Alan’s Dad says,

“He has to work weekends a lot, which is when Kim gets most of her free time, and she wanted him to accompany her on promotional tours abroad.”

It is so important to make time for each other! Come on guys, love is more important than work. Despite their different schedules Kim’s rep insists that is not the reason for the split. She says they “were going in different directions,” It is a shame these two didn’t last.  Although I am sure they had fun whilst they were together.

As each year passes, I swear cougar Jennifer Aniston gets hotter. Look at her amazing legs in this pic, as she shoots her new film Bounty in Brooklyn. She doesn’t even seem to have any cellulite! Like a lot of single, mature women Jen likes to look after herself and works out a lot to stay looking this good.

Jen gets some bad press for still being single, but I agree with Kathy Griffin when she said this about Jen to People magazine:

““I ‘ get the press’ perception of her as a desperate woman. Shes been with every hot guy from Brad Pitt to John Mayer. She’s not tragic, She’s amazing.”

Good on ya Kathy – I guess it takes one hot cougar woman to recognize another.
