2sunny Posted November 2, 2011 Posted November 2, 2011 A chick that's gotta lie about what she looks like online might be easier to get in bed on the first date. Ok, honestly, when I tell the truth people don't believe me so I find it easier to just let them believe what they want. Apparently i'm this attractive guy with a great personality who everyone thinks is out slaying chicks left & right & dating multiple women. Basically a player. The truth is I spend my weekends at home with my kids, I hardly ever go out & i'm so single my cell phone hasn't received a txt from anyone other than family & my ex-wife setting up kid exchanging locations & times. Nobody seems to believe i'm really kind of a boring guy who'd rather spend the evening cooking dinner with someone and enjoying the evening on the couch or taking a walk or something where it isn't too noisy or expensive. (divorce is a financial beyotch) this is hot! i don't do online dating anymore - because i have evidence that most folks there aren't honest. it's also hard to determine what kind of energy a person gives off - and i like to "read" a persons energy... i AM curvy - but slim and athletic - so i never know which category i would honestly fit into. it all sucks... it's all labels and designed to encourage lies. i won't do it.
Lobouspo Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 I don't think lying is necessarily more common on people you meet on OLD sites. I dated a woman who lied about being married. Last woman i briefly dated told me she had never been in a fight on our first date but her online criminal record told a different story. Both women i met IRL.
FitChick Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 (edited) I have never understood this. If you lie about your age, and then enter into a relationship, how long are you planning to keep up this lie? Forever? Some do. I heard about a couple who'd just celebrated their fiftieth wedding anniversary. No kids, plenty of friends and from the sound of things, a very happy and fulfilling life. The wife died shortly thereafter and it was only then that the husband learned his wife was ten years older than he had thought. He was shocked. Do you think he thought, "Why, that lying bitch!" or "I don't care how old she was -- I wish she were still here." If he'd let himself turn her down when he met her based on her age, he'd have missed a lifetime of joy. Clearly, his wife knew that and took her secret to the grave. Some things are more important.

I guess it's possible. But she must have been deceiving everyone to pull this off. Every year at her birthday, I wonder if she just went along with what age they wished her happy birthday for knowing that it's a lie. I would think the husband at some point must have seen her driver's licence or passport or birth certificate, or had to fill out some type form for his wife and had to write in her date of birth. It must have also been difficult matching up her claimed age and the years she supposedly would have been going to school or college. If she was truly deceiving him all these years, it must have been stressful trying to deal with those types of scenarios. On the other hand, maybe he did know about her age but didn't want others to know that he knew so he just acted shocked when everyone found out her true age.

If she was truly deceiving him all these years, it must have been stressful trying to deal with those types of scenarios. Like most men, I doubt he snooped around looking for her true age. If she didn't look older the thought never would have crossed his mind. If she consistently used the same date, no one would have suspected anything. Let's not forget that this was in the days before Google and Homeland Security. I suspect plenty of women lied about their age back then. It was almost expected of women to be a bit coy. My mother and her friends would say they were as old as Jack Benny -- 39 and holding. As for stress, the woman died in her 80s, so stress must be good for the body!
