I'm a Cougar

Rarrrr [in a very sarcastic tone] 
Well, yeah and nay.... well I suppose yeah, but for a very brief moment. 
His name is C******. 8 years my junior and we met online. YES an online dating app!!!
Such a hypocrite right now, If you asked me a couple of years ago I swore I would NEVER go on a dating website or even go for anyone, ANYONE over 5 years younger. Well here I am eating my own words! Yes, fine I deserve this punishment [roll over eyes- blah blah], why punishment? I shall explain..
Okay so here is the story.
I met him on an app called Happn. It's the first online dating site or app I have ever signed up to. The only reason I ended up creating a profile last boxing day was purely because I was so gutted I missed this opportunity with this very cute guy whilst cruising on my bike on Christmas day who I happen to cross paths with. I even search on Instagram and Twitter hashtags of the area we were 'hanging' around just in case he might have randomly mentioned what he was doing on Christmas day but to no avail! During those desperate needs, God seemed to have answered my prayers and popped came up the ad from Happn, with the catchphrase: 
"Ever wondered about that cute person that walked on by but missed your chance. Well we can make it Happn." Something kinda along those lines. 
"Yes." I yelled at it, acting ecstatic as if the world wide web heard my call. But obviously for that particular guy this calling was a bit too late but I thought things are different now. With this new app such disappointments will never happen again! Hahaa.
So I set up my profile looking for guys age between 23-40 years old blah de blah and it's great fun being able to like/heart someone and decline the definitely 'not my kind' types; there are some really scary ones out there! 
When a crush forms it just gives you that buzz of excitement, it's like finding out that someone you like actually likes you back! So when you both happen to like each other this then opens up your chat box and you start getting to know etc. Well there were a couple of guys I chatted there before C****** which fizzled out because they suddenly never got back to me once I gave them my number!! What's all that about? Specially when they were the one who asked me?! Literally as soon as I say "Yeah, here it is…." NOthing.  Can someone please explain this phenomena. My friends call it games but why that tactic and no outcome?! What's the point? It's wasted time and energy. Moving on…

Okay, so then sometime in January me and C****** formed a crush. I didn't initially make any contact because the last two just made me wary of wasting time and plus I've now realised it is all too often nothing is said from both sides. 
A few days later on, I then get a friend request on Facebook and noticed it was young C******!! I was quite stoked at this so I approved and messaged him 
"Hey. I thought your face looked familiar. What's happn'in?? :)" 
That was the start of our conversation and two months later it ended with 
"It's not an STI! I'm really sorry for worrying you unnecessarily.. Sorryyy. Hope you had a good weekend." 
The End. I told you it was a brief cougar moment.
