Lying about one's age

The ages on our profile are our real ages but we're starting to realise that a lot of people lie about theirs.

Is it the norm to do so? Should we knock a few years off?

I couldn't lie about my age, even though it looses us alot of meets, i am me and if people dont want me then they don't have to.. why lie just to get with people who wouldnt be with me if they knew the truth... not fair to them or me.

But if you wanna lie about it. go ahead.. your only fooling yourselves.

We have noticed a few who seem to have. But there and again you don't know how new photos are so it is only when you meet that it becomes obvious.

When I (male half) was younger I used to lie to be older because I didn't like being young, but now I'm fine with my age, im quite open minded to meeting people of different ages, however S (female half) has quite a young mum and a 21 year old brother so she has hard and fast rules with ages.

Agree with that one....

I love the profiles where you have a username 'Horny 24'*, the profile says he's 21, and the text says 'Im a 28 year old guy'....

*fingers crossed not a real username

Sadly, our ages are real! I wish they weren't, but what you gonna do? When you get over 50, the mail seems to dry up a bit and it does become more difficult to get meets (except males of course lol)

Really though, not worried if people tell little fibs about their age, we meet on looks first because there must be an attraction and then, if personality is nice, we would play..

Why would your age put people off, you look amazing, maybe they are thinking about maturity

My real age will tick over on my profile on Wednesday, but my stated age is *coughs* 39 and my mental age is about 9....when I hit 30 I started counting backwards but if I were still doing that now, I'd go under the age of consent day after tomorrow and be not far off going through puberty again, but backwards this time

So yeah, I lie (tongue in cheekly) about my age all the time, but I'm in the middle of my 5th decade and having the time of my life so it's just a number

the reasons are usually because of their kids ages, they think i'm as immature as most people my age, or they just have rules about not meeting people under X-age. not a problem but it is a shame sometimes.. missed out on some fun looking meets because of my age... but time for that in the future i guess..

Yikes! You've just made me realise that I am guilty of exactly this. I turned 50 in December, and my profile still mentions me being 49.. (runs off to change it quick!)

Mind you, I'm sure it's not just 'male profiles' where this happens

why lie about your age, there are lots of people who are in their seventies, who look good, and our getting meets and ejoying themselves, so what difference does it make how old you are. Have met men who were obviously much older than they said they were, and a few have admited to me they had knocked a few years off their age.

I have never lied about my age and I don't intend to. I know I have been knocked back lots of times because of my age, but that it their loss not mine.

i know some people here who lie about there age...it really coloured my view of them...the idea they will say anything to get a fuck isnt pleasant.

Yeap! It is mainly men I find that lie about their age!

The young one's make themselves older and the over 40's make themselves younger, I had a meet a few years ago, where he was 2 years older than me! Looking at his profile now, it looks like by some miracle he is now younger than me....I wish I knew how the age fairy manages that trick

I have never understood this age thing. If I find someone sexy then age isn't really anything to do with it. I do have a lower age range but that's because I find it hard sometimes to relate and chat to people who are a lot younger than myself. If you're sexy, you're sexy and that's all that counts!

I have lost count of the number of guys who claim to be late 30's to early 40's and then the face pic comes and it looks more like the year of birth than their age.

I am sure women must do it too, but I don't go browsing women's profiles.

It's not always the men. When I was a member previously I met a few couples who had lied about the age of the female and with either old pictures or a very good photoshop package. I just put it down to a lack of self esteem.

It's amazing how many stay the same age every year on their profiles. Some even get younger

Can't see the point of fibbing about your ages as bound to get caught out sooner or later.

There are 2 things you can nothing about... Dying and getting older.

Can't see the point in being embarrassed about your age,saying you are a diff age is basically just being dishonest with yourself and other people.

You are what you are just get on with it !!

lets face its some people will say anything just to get a meet .they are suddenly with in your age range or become bi or stop being being bi depending how it suits the situation lol ! however liers get found out and personally i cant abide being lied to . just shows a total lack of respect for the other person not to mention if they lie about something like age ect to get a meet what on earth else would they lie about if its happens to suit them ? so id def not fudge my age or any info as deceit and manipulation arent traits i think anyone values on here.honest all the way

I must admit that on another site I had my true age and got no interest really, a male friend kept saying I should lie but I refused... eventually to prove him wrong (or so I thought) I changed my age to 99 so people would have to guess and I did get a lot more interest

Some people are very much led by the 'number' ....as am I admittedly

Always had fake I.D to get into clubs when I was younger. But on here there is no point in lieing. You will always get found out. I'd rather tell the truth and meet up with somebody who wants the real me rather than who I'm pretending to be.

Moi lie about age - never honest never really - well ok i might have once or twice to get into clubs when i was younger and then most recently to get a bus pass lol hehehe

Seriously; your quoted age/looks/shpe and size are easily "outed" once you been varified at a "meeting" which i think sorts the fakers out once and for all
