\"\"<\/a>A damaged cougar is one who has been mistreated, abused, been through trauma, and usually has some sort of social anxiety or personality disorder. Why, in the name of all that is holy, would anyone want to date such a woman, you may be asking? The answer is rather simply, if a bit romantic. Sometimes she\u2019s worth it. None of us is perfect. We have all been through our fair share of damaging childhood trauma, teen angst, and a plethora of young adult anguish that left scars we will carry for life. What makes her crazy any crazier than your crazy? Unless we are talking about something life-threatening, or personally harmful, you may be able to help her heal enough to heal herself. <\/p>\n

It isn\u2019t always easy to tell if your dating a damaged cougar<\/a>, or if she is just playing games, or simply psycho. The dating game is a circus today, and just because you are dating an older woman<\/a> don\u2019t expect much difference. There are a few signs that she isn\u2019t just yanking your chain and could really use a stand-up man in her corner.

Requires Physical Validation to Gain Confidence<\/h3>\n

The confidence of many damaged cougars lies in the response they get to their appearance. Today\u2019s social media<\/a> influence has all but ruined the ability of humans to get their confidence from within themselves. A vampy, filtered-to-death, pic can instantly get enough likes to instill some self-confidence, at least for a little while. When a woman\u2019s self-confidence is based solely on her appearance it is usually because it is the only thing she feels in control of. She may have been made to believe that her greatest worth is in her looks and sex appeal. A steady relationship of mutual conversation and debate will eventually show her that she has other qualities that people appreciate.
