I was in a chatgroup 4 years ago when a man who had his fab age as 55 admitted he was actually 58. He is often forced to leave the site but always returns and he seems to get younger with each new profile. He was only 50 on one of his more recent ones.

I also know of a woman who used to complain loudly about people misrepresenting their fab age but her hubby's single profile is 10 years younger than he really is and another couple who's ages are 4 or 5 years below what it says on their single profiles. I would have expected it to be the other way around.

20 years is a bit too much.

I also don’t get it. They’re probably hoping you’ll be taken by their personality that the age wouldn’t matter. But then again, what other lies have they told?

1-3 years out? I suspect nobody would notice.

20? Unless you're meeting in a dark room or your next date is with Stevie Wonder..........

I went to meet a guy for a social and he looked 20yrs older than he had stated. As you can imagine I was not happy and as soon as saw him I told him I was going home. My time is too precious to waste. He later messaged to apologise but I did not reply. The annoying think was that he had 6 veris.

I shouldn’t laugh but I did at the pyramid comment.

We’ve had the same, where someone must have either had a very hard life or they’d been using their photos from years ago. Don’t get it, you’re going to realise when you see them face to face.

Mines a couple of years out. I've stated that many a time.

Having been outed to a previous employer years ago it's a means of distancing my profile from the real me.

If someone thought they someone and thought to themselves "ooh, that might be Dave, 36 from Cleethorpes, and the profile says its owned by Bill, 34 from Doncaster, then there's a degree of separation from reality.

People often don't use real names, accurate locations and rarely have visible face pics.

I'd someone adds/subtracts a year or two I couldn't give a toss.

A decade or more is different of course.....

I met a guy who I’d been chatting with, had sent photos etc and his profile pic on WhatsApp was him and daughter. (A baby). When he arrived he was waaaaaay older than the pics and even dropped into convo that the daughter was a teenager.

I can appreciate that, I wouldn’t give any details that could link to my life away from fab. My age isn’t down the day but it is my age.

And yes, decades is pushing it

couldn't really careless about a few years off or on either way,(makeup is amazing at fucking up peoples perceptions of age anyway with women) , its really when its seriously stupid out of date or they look nothing like the pics ..

In a club environment well I don't think I have ever even bothered asking someones age or if they have mentioned it I paid little interest in it ..

1. Agreed for social lunch with a guy. Sent me "current" picture. Couldn't find him and then somebody called me..the guy was way over 20 years than his photo. That was quick WTF NO.

2. Was chatting for a while and agreed to meet for dinner. Guy looked more less his given age but energy level and few things I picked up did not add up. So...old school... I made him very d*unk and he slipped big time. Was actually older not 4 years as he stated but 14 plus everything what he said before about him was a lie. Can't stand liars and fake people

The dudes mistake (apart from OTT lying with age) was drinking the poison water on a meet

got to love alcohol for fucking people up with things .... I find it hilarious watching people getting d*unk as a persons that doesn't drink I find it very amusing seeing how dumb people become on it .

I understand maybe a year as people don't want identifying things on their profile but yes I agree 20 years is more than a little white lie.

I am now 82, I look 82, and most of the time I feel 82.

Why on earth would I try to convince people otherwise, they can either take me or leave me.
