I know it's not going to work out in the long term because I will want a family around 27-35 and there's no way I can do that with somebody who is in her late 40s/50s. I don't want to inherit somebody else's family


That's a long way away though. For now, we're just taking it day by day. I'm going to see her 3 or 4 times next week

You are right apotamkin and he should give her a chance but the bull wasn't ready for this one and this cougar is tearing him up!

Oh I see. Well, that changes things a bit, eh? Then just enjoy each others company for as long as it lasts. That's really all you can do at this point. Just be sure to be on the level with her and share this information with her (if you haven't already) so she knows what your future plans are and that they won't ever include her.

Anyways, she's out of town this week and I'm starting to miss her like crazy. I couldn't stop thinking about her last night and can't wait to see her on Tuesday (we're going out to dinner). I am even masturbating fantasizing about her. WTF


What the hell is wrong with me? Why am I starting to get so attached to somebody where I know there is no real chance of anything long term happening?

If you have to ask!!!

It appears you have a relationship with this woman but it seems to be one sided, hence the reason the phrase "Friends With Benefits" is quite misleading and not an actual reality since someone (YOU) usually gets attached (YOU) and ends up getting hurt (YOU).

She's a smart woman. I'm sure she knows I'll want a family in the future

This is not one sided, she likes me as much or more than I like her

She can guess or assume that but the only way for her to know that for sure is if you tell her.

Tell her the truth. If she is cool with that, keep dating her.

Tell your family you're dating someone. Tell them you don't expect it to get serious, and you two are just having fun dating.


No need to write the whole story while you're still on chapter one.

I fail to see why this would be any of the family's business anyway.
