So I [32M] used to date cougars and pumas back in my early 20s back when I worked in restaurants and bars. I'm looking to get back into agegap relationships and dating cougars again.

In the restaurant and bar scene I found older women were very open and direct and tended to make the first move, letting me know they were interested. Now that I'm out of that world and no longer in my 20s, I feel like it's harder to tell if cougars are interested in me.

I would love to hear from anyone with any advice about how to broadcast more clearly to potential partners that I'm open to being approached, or any advice for someone re-entering that world. (I know I can also make the first move, but since I don't really go to bars that much anymore, the opportunity for that seems more limited than it used to be)
