AGE OF LOVE
Jennifer Braff
Last year the 48-year-old appeared on NBC's dating show that pitted ''kittens versus cougars'' in a battle for the affections of tennis player Mark Philippoussis. Braff, the oldest contestant, made it to the final two, but lost to 25-year-old Amanda Salinas.

They said the guy was younger — but they said the guy was going to be late 30s, maybe 40. He was 30. They said he was looking to date. But when they showed his video to us, he said he was looking for someone to get married to and start a family. It's not likely I'm going to get pregnant and have children. But I just thought, Well, I'm gonna go with it. There were things that happened [that were less than flattering]. You fill out your forms and tell a little about your personality. It said, ''What's your favorite drink?'' And I said, ''I can get a little carried away with tequila.'' Funny how tequila was always there. I thought there had to be [a twist on the show]. I was not as shocked as some of the other women were when the twentysomethings were introduced. I couldn't get myself in competitive mode with Amanda. It was a long time ago, but I remember when I was in my 20s and I felt like I was in love head over heels. After I taped the show, I met someone. He's 13 years younger than me. And we're still together. —As told to Jennifer Armstrong
