if you meet someone on the basis of a lie, could you ever really trust anything they tell you? I agree, dishonesty just gets you in trouble. | |

| A lot of guys seem to lie about their age Posted: 9/14/2007 6:21:27 PM | Well, I cannot say about others but for myself I never did hide for anything, I was and I am a speaker of truth and reality. If I like some one, I make a request to please her, and if I dont, still I would thank her of the facts and beg for being excused but I wont lie or hide. It is we men who compell or create a situation compelling the woman to accept or reject us. 95% of the woman by the grace of mother nature, has always been sufferer and she does for the family, while we men think we are great and we deserve better. I ask my gender mates, how many of us have taken the pain of understanding the pain of our own kids when they were not able to speak up. If any one doesnot agree, please question me with your logics I will try to answer to convince you of the truth. | |

| A lot of guys seem to lie about their age Posted: 9/14/2007 9:39:10 PM | | I don't think I've lied about my age since I was alot younger. LOL it's pretty funny actually....I went to a middle school dance when I was in grade seven (almost 16 years ago). Told a girl I danced with I was 15. She slapped me when she found out I was 12. I don't know why I laugh thinking about it, but I still do LOL. | |

| A lot of guys seem to lie about their age Posted: 9/14/2007 11:02:01 PM | I never ever ran across that before ... I didn't think men lied about their age ! I have always heard men brag about their age and what shape they are in ! ....until I came here.  | |

| A lot of guys seem to lie about their age Posted: 9/16/2007 1:05:39 PM | LOL this whole thread is just too funny. I certainly have NEVER lied about my age I just don't see any benifit in it at all. I mean grow up. Yes I have shocked people when I tell them my age but I think it is because I am such an active person and they seem to think anyone over 50 has to have one foot in the grave or something. I am in good shape for 52 and yes I can keep up to guys half my age BUT it takes me a lot longer to recover than it use to. I think the question here should be HOW FAST do you dump a guy that starts a relationship with a lie?? My answer -- the faster the better. Al | |

Its all well and good for some if they believe they are getting away with it. Not sure how silly one feels when they get caught. All I know is, I find out someone lies about something like their age....I loose respect. Then i wonder, what is the defining line of what this person will lie about and what they won't lie about.
I understand why people do it on this site. Mail perameters determine who can contact you and people use them...for a reason. So, to skirt under the age line, people lie. Its our personal choice as to who we feel we want in our life, whether your life experiences will be identifiable with a prospective person because age can play a large part. Example: For me to identify with someone of 20 years old. What could we possibly have in common?
Fudging your age for whatever your personal gain, is to find someone you are wanting as far as physical attributes and the silly perception that someone older is all washed up, undesirable sexually....unworthy. Virility is some mens motivation. Men in general want younger woman. Younger women in general do not want an older man. The games continue on.
I've dated a few men off dating sites who have lied about their age. I would have dated them spite their age. I don't think to highly of them now. | |

| A lot of guys seem to lie about their age Posted: 7/20/2008 11:49:28 PM | If you saw my private images you would know I'm not lying about my age. My years of working outside are etched into my face. BTW- I personally know 3 women who have profiles up on POF tonight and they are all lying about their age.Of that 3 women,2 state they don't smoke when I know they do. Lady 1 says she is 62.I was at her 70th.birthday party last OCT./07 Lady 2 says she is 52.I know she is at least 58.Her profile non smoking,she smokes. Lady 3 says she is 48.I know she is at least 55.I went to high school with her.Same grades. Her profile non smoking-she smokes.Saw her today at a ball field puffing away. So it's not only men who stretch the truth on POF. My 2 cents. MM | |

| A lot of guys seem to lie about their age Posted: 7/21/2008 12:33:08 AM | I hear yah dude.......^^^^......... It's not only the age thing but the perverbial AVG thing as a body type should be barred....... There's more so called "athletic" profiles on here that don't even come close to that definition........it's mind boggeling........and a waste of peoples time. I've never seen a biathlete with blatent rolls........ | |

| A lot of guys seem to lie about their age Posted: 7/21/2008 2:29:34 AM | I've never lied about my age or weight. I have a surplus of the latter though am happy to report the surplus diminishes with time.
Alas time diminishes too for I have more years behind me than ahead of me.
More importantly why would any man be so foolish and lie about his age? The truth will be known eventually, for example when completing the application form for marriage licence or when those old age pension cheques start arriving in the mail.
BTW evidently 'X' lied about her age.

| A lot of guys seem to lie about their age Posted: 7/21/2008 6:46:48 AM | They can lie about their age but sooner than later you will see the tell tale indicators of how old they really are eg. the rings on their teeth I had one bloke messaging me and he must have not looked in the mirror, the hair was black as can be and the mustache was loaded with grey. Blokes are attractive with the grey coming in naturally and I would rather see that then the failed attempts at being something that they are not!. Lies about anything suggest they are not comfortable with themselves - run for your life!!! | |

| A lot of guys seem to lie about their age Posted: 7/21/2008 7:59:52 AM | I am so much younger than my age. Lot's of people say that to me. I am early fourties, but I don't think I am like other 40yr olds... Wouldnt know because they bore me so I don't hang with them.
lol
I always say you are only as old as WHO you are feeling. | |

| A lot of guys seem to lie about their age Posted: 7/22/2008 11:31:16 AM | | I think both genders have their fair share of lyers,I saw a mans profile where he says he is a none smoker...glance at the picture and notice a cigarette between his fingers....I know two lady on POF from my home town one was my elder sisters best friend the other an aqaintance of mine, they are both older then me (it is a fact) however through the magic of POF are now younger then me????I can't be bothered to make up a story, this is who I am take me or leave. I have know interest in people who speak untruths so easy, my age is a marker of the years I have lived it is an indicator of my personal experiance.....I would not dishonour myself or my experiances by dening those years, My brithday is a celebration in my house I embrace today and look forward to tomorrow....even thou the white threads are coming in and Im not the girl I once was,I got to celebrate my 44 which is more then my father got. If the catterpiller refuses to evole it dies in the cacoon before it ever gets to to experiance flight......... | |

| A lot of guys seem to lie about their age Posted: 10/13/2009 9:57:48 PM | unfortunately, I have experienced both lies about age and height. They are both so obvious Women probably lie about age and weight I overestimate both just in case  | |

| A lot of guys seem to lie about their age Posted: 10/14/2009 1:06:59 AM | I saw this thread and I'm like "Wait, people lie about their age? OMG?"
No really, up to about age 25 I kept being asked how old I was and when I give my age they are shocked to hear that I'm older than I look. Short hair = looks older. | |

| A lot of guys seem to lie about their age Posted: 10/14/2009 12:25:28 PM | guys lie about their age and women lie about their bodies. Welcome to the world of online dating.
I think we're dumb to lie about our age - women already seem quite willing to accept guys older than they are.
I lied about my age, kinda. When I started my profile here I put in the right year but I said my birthday is January 1, just to hasten the registration process. So if you go by my astrological sign, I'm one of the few guys who lied to make himself appear older than he actually is. | |
|
| A lot of guys seem to lie about their age Posted: 10/14/2009 12:52:29 PM | I lied about my age in this profile. The year and month are accurate. It was only in the interest of protecting my identify from theft that I changed the date, only by a few days, after ensuring that my astrological sign remains correct.
I am do not subscribe to horoscopes and matching relationships based on astrology, but I do recognize that some people do.
I met a fascinating women who used the horoscope and the Chinese horoscope as criteria of who to contact.
So I believe if someone uses age and such criteria for correspondence it would not be in my best interest to be dishonest.
Moreover the truth of age will likely become evident sooner or later, so why risk to be caught in a lie about your age? Deception is not a good footing for a lasting relationship.
No worries ladies, if we hook up and have a relationship I'll be sure to invite you to my birthday party. | |
