WOMEN HAVE YOU EVER LIED ABOUT YOUR AGE? MEN HAVE YOU EVER LIED ABOUT YOUR HEIGHT? I was just reading a post and it talked about women lying about their age. I have never lied about my age. I will be 58 in Sept. Unless something strange happens, I don't intend to ever lie about it. It is what it is. So ladies, you don't have to answer this question in regards to what age it shows here but have you ever lied about your age? Men, do you lie about yours or think that women are lying about their age? When I owned a dating service, the lie I saw most often was from men lying about their height. Men, have you ever lied about your height?  Elaine Shuel |

Hi Elaine...I have never lied bout my age. I don't see the point in it and sooner or later you would be found out about it. On dating sites I have met guys that stretched the truth about a few things. I don't think height was one of them. Age quite often is lied about.

Only to get into the movies. I always said I was older than I was. When I was a teen I looked older so said I was 18 to get in to the X rated ones. When I was around 50 my husband who was 10 years older started getting the senior discount. The money made more of a difference then than now. One time I looked around and saw that most of the theater employees were kids and probably had no idea what a senior was so we started getting 2 senior tickets and were never doubted. Around the same time I decided to "prank" a kid I was sharing a lane with at the community pool. He made some comment and I responded "not bad for a 70 year old, is it.." He seemed a bit confused but gave no indication he doubted me. Finally I burst old laughing and confessed that I was not 70 but willing to bet I was older than his mother. Spiritwoman ^i^

I'm like Spirit, I added on a couple of years. I got married when I was 19, but I couldn't go out dancing and have a drink with my husband until I was 21.

I never lie about my age or my height. I lie about how much money I have. I read somewhere that a survey of dating sites found men were mainly interested in how attractive a woman is, and women were interested in how wealthy a man is. Ergo, I lie about money.

No and no. What would be the point ? I would still be the same age and height lol.

I just changed my age to the correct number lol Given you said everyone knows it anyhow, why have a different age showing?Elaine Shuel

All I know is one woman was the exact same age for 3 years. That one of the reasons it makes no sense. Why do that and make people aware that you are lying? Thanks for your comment, Leaf. Elaine Shuel

I have no idea if they lie about that, dakota. It wasn't part of our member's questionnaire to join our dating service. Thanks for your amusing comment. Elaine Shuel

Ok, now I am truly shocked. I was thinking about who I expected to say they never lied about their age. I definitely expected you to say something about never lying about it. That's funny what you told your grandchild. Why did you pick 37 as opposed to 35 or 30? You are still full of surprises, Pat.  Elaine Shuel

You have to remember that when a guy lies about his age before meeting the woman, he can get away with it. His goal is to get that date and then hope she likes him despite the lie about his height. How come you keep calling rentier, Bike? I never noticed that until the other day. Thanks for your comment, Roxy. Elaine Shuel

Elaine I Don't Even Know - To Me Age Is So Ridiculous On This Site If You Aren't Pursuing Anyone - Hank Is 92?? Funny Nothing Was Ever Said To Him Elaine Shuel

Sorry Elaine- Right Wingers Just Bug Me- They Are So Obsessed About Ridiculous Things lol Elaine Shuel

That's interesting to me, ET. Why would you lie about your age when younger but not when you got older? Thanks for your comment. Elaine Shuel
