Younger Men

My friend ...lets call her Macy has always been into younger men. She says they are so sweet ...and you can still teach them. Any way when she got married she was 30 and her hubby was 24.

My other friend Kitty (yup purrs like a cat :D) has just started down this road too. We both bumped into a boy (ok unfair to call him boy) a man we knew at Uni (I'll call him Puppy) who was a couple of years below us. Well we bumped into him on facebook ...he added me and Kitty sends me a message: "Ohhh Unmodern ...I see Puppy added you ...wow ...he is sooo sexy now. I always knew he would be hot ...are you gonna pull him???" Me: "ewww" he is young ...besides he is not my type" Kitty: "Well if you won't pull him ...I will"

Next thing I see a notification Kitty and Puppy are now friends ...I think to myself "poor Puppy"

So Kitty emails to say she is visiting London ...she tells me not to worry about how we are meeting up ...because Puppy will drive her every where during her visit. Don't get me wrong Puppy is like 25/26 and works in investment banking so he is not a wet behind the ears... he has theatre tickets booked, lovely dinners lined up and was completely devoted and adoring during her visit.

So I started thinking ...I WANT MY OWN PUPPY. Now normally once a guy is younger or dressed ridiculously (you know with the boxers showing, or trying to look like an American rapper) then I don’t give them the time of the day.

Any way Xmas eve and I’m at a party ...this really young looking man pulls my hand as I walk by ...he looks Puppy like so I decide to see what he has to say instead of blanking him immediately. His wing man says "hey he wants to talk to you don’t walk way now" ...so I stop. He is like "You know you are the prettiest woman in this room" ...and I’m thinking ...well at least he makes sense :D LOL. I say "really??" ...he says "yes really" I ask his name and he tells me ...then I can’t help my self I say "how Old are you?" he says "26" ...I smile ..."I'm 27" and he says "those are just numbers ...and don't dismiss me just because I'm here and I'm young...there’s more to it than that”. Oh wow ...good comeback ...any way I’m mischievous...so I say I'll see him around and I walk away.

Any way it’s an hour later and he finds me ..."Don't run way again...can I please have your number so we can talk?" I think well I'm being silly 26 is basically the same as 27 ...so I oblige....

Next day ...my phone rings ...Its Pup (well I thought I'd better name him. Kitty has her Puppy so I'll just call him Pup) It’s a brief conversation and half way through he says "Is this Unmodern??" I’m say "Of course who else" Pup says "well sorry it’s just you sound really different" I say "well it’s me...Unmodern". The conversation ends. I’m thinking well I guess I was using my business tone ...and I sounded more grown up than he expected...the conversation was awkward :D ...now I'm thinking Pup probabaly lied about being 26 ...he sounds more like he is 24.

I go out again at the weekend. I spot Pup in the corner. He doesn’t come up to me. By chance we pass each other and we say hello ...he looks nervous. I'm not quite sure if it’s the fact that I'm, 6'2 tall (with my heels) :D or if it’s the maturity thing, or that a lot of money is being spent on my table (well a couple of men kept my champagne glass topped up all night), and when you get me and my girls together it can be intimidating.

Any way fast forward to today. I just got out of a meeting and I get a text. I reproduce it word for word:

"Hey girl' wasz up everything Kris? Holla back. Pup"


Holla Back?? Everything Kris??? I dont know what Kris means ...but gosh I really can’t do this puppy thing!!!!
