Fibbing about your age?

Don't think many people are going to own up to
that little white lie, but have you had a meet and thought no way are they the age they state in their profile, if so did you, challenge them about it or just get on with the meet regardless? X |

I've had a lot of men lately who say their profile age is wrong. By 10yrs+ 
If I wasn't attracted to them I wouldn't meet them for sex. Some people don't age well so I probably wouldn't say anything. Unless they were 21 or 83 claiming to be 47. |

I have my exact age on my profile.
When I tell a guy that they are too young for me, it’s amazing how many have mistakenly put the wrong age on their profile and are unable to change it, by 10+ years.
Crazy eh? |

I face that all the time. Men usually being 10 years older and a couple of stone heavier than their profile photos/details state. When that happens, sex will never take place. I’ll carry on with a social though.
I’ve never lied about my age. There’s no need. I am very proud of being the age I am.  |

We've met people who very clearly aren't their stated age. On one memorable occasion they'd added around ten years and borrowed what appeared to be their father's suit. We don't say anything, we always have a social first and wouldn't want to embarrass anyone |

I tell them I won't meet the type of person who doesn't know their own date of birth. |

I met someone who it turned out had taken 10 years off their age. And someone recently had lied so that he could message me as he was outside my age limits. When I found out I stopped chatting. I think if you're going to start off lying, it doesn't bode well. |

"I am actually 46 (not 47) when I turn 47 I will be 48 on here. Sorry"
A couple of years is fine. I assume people do that to be discreet. Not wise to have exact DOB on websites.  |

Erm yes, that’s why it is wrong, discretion, not me actually forgetting what year I was born at all  |

My age is exact but I have seen profiles that are aging in reverse every time they leave and rejoin and are younger now than they were 4 years ago.
I've never met anyone that looked different to the age on their profile. |

Hahaha happens all the time, we usually check for pulse and then fuck them anyway.
Just kidding, if we are still attracted to them irrespective of how old they look vs what they stated, we tend to carry on, if we don't we make an excuse. Still to call anyone out. |

I also change my DOB for the different sites I've been on. It's safer IMO. |

I wouldn't challenge them if they arrived looking a lot older than id simply end it saying you look nothing like the images you displayed |

I had this the other day. Profile says 35 but the info at the bottom said he was 24. They use it to get around age filters. My kids are in their 20’s so it’s definitely a no from me. I agree, starting off with a lie does not bode well at all. |

11 years!! FFS. Yes a 32 yo was down as 48 and pleaded with me for a chance recently. Do they not see that's OUR choice they are railroading over? |

With your age range… do many people allow a bit of sway?
It’s difficult to tell a persons age just by looking at them, unless it’s really drastic difference |

Our ages are exact also which makes it difficult for meets hubby is sometimes out of their age bracket as they set it as 50, though in my opinion he looks younger than people who say that they are 45 and lying, but we just wont deceive people as it's totally unfair. X |

Jesus, have a wank if you need “action” that badly rather than lie about your age.
I cannot fathom people who do that to bypass age ranges as it shows a clear lack of respect and just shows they prioritise their own needs and wants over the other persons. |

A couple of years to the side I see no issue with, it helps keep identy of who you are that more anonymous and less likely for somebody to maybe work out who you are. So I can accept slight dishonesty here - its not like a year or two suddenly change who they are alone.
Full on decade differences and that is just simple bullshitting. Which I'd never consider doing. |

No lies from us. We've both questioned (to ourselves) people on here though. Myself (C) had a particulary vicious stalker who started online though and she was lying about her age by 11 years so I use that personal experience to set boundaries for things as nobody wants that... again. |

No point in lying about your age. If you then meet the person they would clearly notice if there was a noticeable discrepancy and this scenario does no one any good.
That said, there's greater incentive on the men to do this given the more rigid and specific age requirements many women put forward.
Not something i'd do. Even knowing that i've crossed that 45 threshold which further limits the compatibility pool were I looking to meet. |

I think a lot of people add a couple or take away a couple of years on there profile.
It really spent bother me as long as it's not 10 years +.
But to be honest if their look like their pictures when you meet them in the flesh then it's fine by me. I find it's not the age that's a problem, it's the outdated pictures some people have on their profiles |

I'm the age stated, the "Limbo age" most people want to meet 18 to 40 or 45 to 65, when I look at profiles I respect their age boundaries, not going to change it because I'm not what they are looking for, only just over 2 years to wait to see some action, I'm patient, I can wait! Lol |

I understand for anonymity some people think it's ok to put a sightly different age, but there's no point lying in my opinion. You'll either get caught and break any trust or have to keep lying if you want to see the person again (and then get caught out.) |

For me it's little to do with how men look. It's the age range I get on with from my experience. Mine is set 37-56. I recently met a 58yo though. I chat to guys in their 20s via the forum. I will message men outside my age limit because they've said something I agree with. |

I never lie about my age - what's the point? If I'm "too old" for someone, then so be it.
I've also had the goons adding 10+ years to their age so they can message me. Does that EVER work??
And finally, I think I look damn good for my age, so I'll continue to celebrate it  |

I had this debate with a lad who had his profile as 30 when he’s actually 21 and used the fact that “no-one replies if you’re under 25” as his excuse.
He’s utterly convinced that if people just “give him a chance” they’ll be wowed by his sparkly personality and will drop their age limits just for him. When I asked him the odds of him dropping his limit of wanting to give anal but not receive it if someone had a “sparkly personality” but apparently that’s different |

"I have met a man who was supposed to be early 50s, but was at least mid 60s when we met.
That was the day I learned how deceptive photos can be when it came to hair and age!"
True!
Thank god this only happened to me once, ages ago. Funny thing was, he sat there brazen as anything, while I was wondering how to make my exit without being rude! X |

A few weeks or months out for anonymity I can understand, but years? To me that's deception just as much as filters that drastically alter appearance or photo's that are years old (unless stated that they are of their younger self). People have preferred age ranges for a reason, and that preference should be respected the same as any other.
It does make me chuckle though when I see people that have two profiles with a different age on each |

Yes they left and came back couple off times I always get a little giggle when I see the profile and it’s still in its mid 50s knowing that I meet them back in 2010 |

Profile said 47 and 6ft. Turned up 5ft 6 and about 67. Asked why he lied on his profile. Said he was using his sons profile and pics. Had to laugh. We both asked him to leave he was most put out. 3 months later asked to meet again. Err no. So reported the profile and blocked |

I met someone who admitted to being 7 years younger than stated on his profile. Which in real terms made him 10 years younger than me. He has an ‘older lady thing’ and admitted no one was engaging with him when he was using his real age. I was not happy. I felt since we’d met once it was ok to continue. . No! Lying is not ok. |

Yes. He claimed to be about 6-7 years older I think but I definitely think he was at least another 5 years older than that. Might have just had a hard life though . He was still within the age range I would be attracted to so I wasn't overly upset but it did put me off as it was one of a number of things about him that didn't quite add up and it does make you wonder what else you don't know. |

When I started on here I was advised by someone much more experienced than l to adjust my age, so I took the advice on board and did. A part of me regrets that now but the only way to change it would be to start again with a new profile and I’m not prepared to:
1. Lose all my veris
2. Have to get messages again from all the creepy people I’ve blocked until I ‘rebuilt’ my block list.
I do tell people that I have a fab age and a mean nasty birth certificate that tells lies though!! |

I have met a few women that looked 10 years older than their stated age.
When I questioned them about it, the usual comment is that they put their age as younger (lied) cos they feel younger than their real age.
Well.... they didn't look that young!
I would carry on with the social and leave it at that.

I do too ...now. In my teens we used to stake ourselves out at midday slathered in coconut oil. I shudder when I think about it now.

 This. Happened to a friend of mine, sat in the Starbucks at Leicester services, waiting for a social meet. This short old guy comes in looking about.. “Please, fuck no” she thinks. Yep, its him, used his son’s photos, age and height…
I just wonder what they think is going to happen, how they played the inevitable scenario out in their heads before the meet. This deluded fellow, called out on being nothing like his profile, then suggested checking in to the hotel next door! |

Happened this summer. Profile said 36. We met and he didn’t look it. I asked him then and he admitted he’s 44. It didn’t go anywhere.
I don’t get lying about it. It’s quite obvious when you meet…I’m not blind. |

Yes some people move their age by a year or two on here, does it bother me, no as they have always looked as per their photos swapped.
I’m useless at guessing peoples ages when out, some 30 odds look 50 and vice versa.
Even some bouncers don’t have a clue, 3 weeks ago I was asked for ID to enter a pub, I just laughed and responded have you seen this furrowed forehead & wrinkles, no 25 year old has this whilst flashing my driving licence at him, he was a tad embarrassed and I couldn’t stop laughing. |

that little white lie, but have you had a meet and thought no way are they the age they state in their profile, if so did you, challenge them about it or just get on with the meet regardless? X
Profile said 47 and 6ft. Turned up 5ft 6 and about 67. Asked why he lied on his profile. Said he was using his sons profile and pics. Had to laugh. We both asked him to leave he was most put out. 3 months later asked to meet again. Err no. So reported the profile and blocked
In what universe does 67 pass for 47? How do they think this will pan out? "
No idea but he obviously did and the pics he sent were 15 years ago. He admitted. Bloody idiot. We did have a good laugh but a wasted night on a meet. Do they think women will just accept once they turn up. Nah. We can afford to be fussy |

I get why some people lie about their ages. Take some of the posters in this thread. Assuming their ages are correct, there are those in their 50s and 60s where some are quite happy to see folk 20 years their junior, but only 5 or so years their senior? Yeah, yeah, I get preferences and all that but don't you think it smacks a little of double standards? It's like they're thinking they're good for their age but no-one else can be too.
Remember, before anyone replies with righteous indignation, I said SOME.
For the record, our ages aren't accurate, and apart from our first four pics, the rest are posted within a couple days of being taken. We've never met anyone from messaging on Fab but those we've met in clubs, if we choose to reveal our true ages, are flabbered and gasted if we tell them, always guessing 10/15 or sometimes even 20  years younger.

My lower age filter is set in stone and will always be 10 years above my eldest child.
My upper age limit hasn't changed since I joined for one very simple reason.
I have never played with any woman older than me at any stage in my life so it doesn't have the same significance. |

Is it a double standard I'm only interested in people upto a couple of years younger but will meet people 20 years older? If not, how is it different to the reverse? |

We're one of those you're referring to. I don't feel its hypocritical to have a lower limit of nearly twenty years younger and an upper of only a few years older while wishing people would be honest about their age in. Hypocrisy would be me lying about my age but moaning about people who do. I don't think I look younger than I am either |

It's the dishonesty that is the problem. Not the age or whether anyone looks good for it. 
I'm 52, my limit is 37-56. At my age I really think I know who I (generally) fancy and who I (generally) get on with? I have only had sex with one man older than me. |

"My age is correct. I don't feel the need to lie about it.
It's the ones you get who message and say "my age is wrong on profile...I'm actually in your age range!
Why bother!! "
My age must be wrong on our profile, I cant be 40 in 5 weeks surely

Our ages are right as we think what’s the point in lying about it! We’ve met with a couple of ladies who haven’t put down their right age and have actually told us at the meet, we weren’t bothered to be fair as they were gorgeous and age didn’t matter! I think it would only matter if they were below our age limit Miss pc |

"If someone lies about their age by quite a number of years they will eventually trip up. "When I was at school such and such was number one in this day" or something like that. "
Or they tell a story that involves them driving or drinking but they would have been 10 years old . |

Never gonna happen, because when I was 10 years old, cars hadn't even been invented yet.
...Oh shit. |

The way I see it is that in comparison to many I'm a very late starter.
I didn't join this site until I was 52 but I'm happy with how I look and fee I'm therefore proud of the fact that I've still got it at my age so I'm damn well not going to pretend to be younger.
If that excludes me from some people's age filters I'm good with that because we aren't what the other was looking for in the first place so it's nobody's loss. |

As people say a mild bit of artistic licence is OK but anything more than 2-3 years is taking the pee.
We heard the term "ten ago" used a few times and can clearly see why its swing slang as we get lots of people masquerading either ten years ago or ten stone ago to be honest it's just a waste of everyone's time maybe it is why so many people don't want to do pre drink before play?
Another fiddle is the couples profile with massive age gaps to squeeze through all of the filters, again bit of a fail as it's also a bit off putting to a lot of people.
Just to all of those who claim you can't correct it on the profile text? Big fat lie admin can do it we have been told the once
Bring on the genuine people |

As long as there pics are up to date, I'm not really bothered about age.
But I do look at some and think, who are they kidding. And don't get me started on filters! |

"I've never lied about my age. I don't see the point but I've noticed some men do it so that they can message you if they're outside your age filters x"
I might have to add a few years so I can message you  |

My profile states my correct age which is 81.
At midnight tonight that will change to 82 for tomorrow is my 82 birthday.
I see no need to lie about it as I would need to knock 40 years off to get any sort of a meet.
I take every day as it comes, especially as I am within the 18 - 99 default age parameters. |

I’ve been questioned whether I’m lying because I look younger than 35. I do look relatively young for my age though.
But yes, I’ve met people where it’s obvious they’re lying or they’ve had an incredibly hard life. Some do admit it after a number of messages or phone call, it’s always fab’s fault it’s wrong though |

Yes I have met some women that are clearly fibbing about their age. I tend to politely point this out. And then would leave the meet as a social only.

Plus you'll get people wanting to say younger to be kind/get in their vaginas (or in the odd case ride their dick). |

I never ask anybody how old they think I look and I always knock 5 to 10 years off if anyone asks me to guess theirs. Nobody who thinks they look their age or older ever asks except people like my dad who on his 94th birthday started telling everyone he was in his 95th year |

My age is my real one
Had a social year's ago, he claimed mid 3os,more like mid 50's when he turned up.
It went no further, as if they lie about that, what else will they lie about.
Some men on my updates leave then rejoin and get younger too! |
