If they came clean at first meet and we get on, yes, I can probably overlook it ... it's when they act as if they haven't lied that puts me off.

@boav91

He actually wanted me to stay and chat to see if we “clicked” and if there was “chemistry”🫣🤷🏼‍♀️.
I said… “Oh there’s chemistry all right. A chemical reaction happening in my stomach right now and not in a good way”. 🤢

But there are other details on profiles which get lied about too… 🙄.

@laugar164

Well let’s put it this way…
I wasn’t hanging around to find out where or how much life he had left in him 🤣😂🫤🫣

In my former life here several years ago, I met a fantastic lady, who admitted to me when we met, that she had 'shaved' 9 years off her actual age. Her profile pic was in black and white which should have been a bit of a giveaway. But hey! aren't most of us here cheating anyway?
In any case, our first meeting was a success and we ended up enjoying each other's company for several months.
So perhaps age is just a number after all?

Only for the gents?
In my case, the time has come where it doesn't really matter if I tried to shave a couple of years off.
I'd still be too old for the vast majority on here anyway!

I once met someone who did look like his photo BUT at least TWENTY years older ... he actually said to me "see I look just like my photo" ... I thought to myself yes but very much older ... however, I was too polite to say it out loud ... 😇

I have the correct age on my profile even though I could easily shave 5 or even 10 years off it ... what's the point though ... I am me ... take it or leave it 🤷🏻‍♀️

How do people expect to get away with that. Just nuts. A year or two I can understand but 17 years. OMG

I didn’t realise it was that bad. Wow

I actually had a date back in 22 which didn’t last long because the man I was meeting lied about his age 🙄🤷🏼‍♀️.
Profile age 53.
His photos I suspected were older, the clothes were a bit of a give away lol, but was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt.
When he turned up for our date I didn’t recognise him 🫤.
He asked me if I wished another drink…
Me… thanks for the offer but I’m already meeting someone.
Him… yes me.
Me..I made the most unbecoming sound (ok… I snorted 🫢) and said I don’t think so as the man I’m meeting is younger than you.
Him… it’s me and then he said my name.
The date didn’t last long and was really awkward 🫤.
His actual age was 70!!
He’d shaved 17 years of his age!!

He wasn’t the first to do this and he certainly won’t be the last… 🙄😏.
Whenever I look at a man’s profile and see his age I take his profile age with a huge pinch of salt.
And yes… there are ladies who shave years off their ages too 😏.

Lying about anything it's not a good start.
Lying about your age or the way you look or sharing those photos taken a few years ago won't do you any favours in the long run.
Imagine going to a date, you get there, the other person not recognising you or vice versa 🤔
Save disappointment, tell the truth, be proud of who you truly are. Be yourself, only then you will have a chance.
