Is he a year old and you're eight months old? After that, the 4 month age difference should be acceptable.

This made me laugh. I'm four months older than my boyfriend and he calls me a cougar during the bicker matches :)

I'm a year older than my boyfriend. My friends used to tease me about it and call me a cougar. Not such a big deal now that we're older and have been dating for several years.

I'm six and a half years older than my boyfriend. My coworkers tease me about being a cougar all the time.

Your ex bf, is a dumbass. That was a shitty excuse he made. Really though it sounds like there was someone on the side. Be happy your not with the dick.

He may have a reason for dumping her, we don't know both sides. That's still a horrible excuse though

Maybe it's because you PHYSICALLY look younger than him? There are a lot of girls that I've liked but been unable to act upon because I feel creepy for finding them attractive as they look much younger than I do.

That's the best excuse he can think of? You deserve someone so much better than that immature twat.
