    how old are you & how old are you looking for ?

    Just turned 18, about to graduate from HS next week. So yeah done with HS girls and I think it's time for an upgrade in chicks.


    Lol....you're not looking for a cougar, you're looking for a college girl that has just escaped the overbearing parents and is free to do what she wants. Start hitting the areas around a local college.

    Is there some kind of fascination for women to be a cougar?.... Just curious... :)

    I think it's more of a joke that makes us 40 somethings who have had our self esteem kicked in the gut a few times in our past feel empowered. No longer are we worried about being pitched aside for a younger woman....we can do the pitching. But...at the end of the day...I'm much more interested in someone my own age. :)

    QFT. A nice, honest response.

    I give up, I am destined to die ALONE.

    In all seriousness now. If you think no higher of yourself than to give yourself the handle of Scumbag, well, you can expect that people will take your word for it that you are. And indeed you will be alone. How about just being Gil?

    honey, go to college.....

    This, multiplied by a few thousand.

    Seriously, though... Give women your age some time. High school doesn't mature everyone equally. Some of us mature because we've got responsibilities, and others stay fairly "young" in mind because they're not required to work hard. Plus, school, a somewhat artificial environment, has been the focus of the past 12 years of your life.

    You might be surprised at the changes that happen as the reality of being an independent adult hits home. When people realize they're all on their own and have to take care of themselves, personalities change.

    Plus, as someone who's older than the "cougars" you're looking for, I can tell you that even people in their mid-to-late twenties don't always have life figured out, and some of them are STILL pretty immature. You may just need to adjust the groups of women you're looking at.


    But, if you want to pick up a more "mature" woman, make sure you act like a more mature man (I don't know if you do or not). And with that 25-ish age range, simply going up and talking to them may work. The biggest risk you face is that they might be one of those "don't you dare talk to me EVER in the gym" types. However, I don't know how well someone that age might respond to being called a "cougar", so you might want to stick with "hey, how's it going?" or "can you believe they closed the weight room off without letting anyone know?". Who knows? Maybe you'll find yourself talking to a 21-year old who simply acts in the "mature" fashion you like.

    this is too funny (The Topic) I don't have time to read it all even though its amusing, first be confident be yourself woman are like animals they can smell fear, don't be scared and if they are interested you’ll know it, there are obvious signs I need not to mention, common sense should kick in be aware of your surroundings, I have ventured there once, older woman do know what they want, but on the other hand it doesn’t matter the age each is different... Good luck

    Any tips on approaching? Getting tired of girls my age, they are really immature and basic. I want something new, and an older chick might be it. I was thinking of chatting some up at the juice bar or treadmills. Not really sure what to say though. Any tips will be of some help thanks.
    You could try one of these, I guess...

    depends how 'old' but simple, just lift weights near the older ladies and smile at them and be less gravitational towards the young girls :)

    Pretty much do opposite of what every guy your age is doing :)

    Right? Not just a nice, chaste, grandmotherly peck on the cheek either. :sick:
    I dunno, maybe when I'm 93 that'll seem like a good deal. :ohwell:

    Seriously man chill out your 18 not 80! Also you'll find women of all ages respond to being considered as human beings and not a "category". Treat women with the same respect you'd be expected to be treated with. If they reciprocate great, if they snub you move on. As a matter of fact that’s actually a great way to treat all people.

    after a week your going to die alone at age 18?

    smh. While yes you have those poking fun, but you have also had genuinely good advice from men and women in this thread.

    A cougar is no different than anyone else besides the fact that she will laugh at you if you try to give her any lines. Treat her with respect and dignity. Ask relevant questions and definitely don't be to aggressive. Don't talk for too long but when your done tell her that you will see her tomorrow and this will encourage her to come back to the gym. Be genuine and she will recognize it and respond in a positive way. Don't ever talk about her age and build a relationship with her at the gym. Then after you two feel comfortable with each other and she looks forward to seeing you when she goes to the gym you should ask her out for coffee. I know it seems like a long process but she is worth it.

    First, you gotta wear shirts form popluar bands from the era the cougar falls into and then strike up a conversation with her how you love the pure music from back in the day.

    I'm having way to much fun at work reading this thread!

    I think the OP missed the main point. To a Cougar your are the prey not the predator. Just smile offer a sincere compliment and be nice, if you are deemed worthy you will be caught and consumed without even realizing it.

    Cougars know exactly what they want and how to get it. You are but a little lamb lost in the forrest.
