OLD and lying about age

[NoMoreMrRight]

Been chatting to someone for a bit, age on his profile is 45. Had a quick look on Linkedin and dates didn't add up so made a comment and he's admitted he really is 51 but 'he can get away with 45'.

Now, the actual age doesn't bother me (51 still within my age range although at the upper limit) but it's the lying on something so basic that really bothers me. Makes me wonder what else he might be lying about if he's not telling the truth about something as basic as age. It also means that now he's looking for women 6 years younger than him max; very ageist behaviour and something that would have me normally ignoring his opening message.

Thoroughly fed up with OLD and very jaded, just curious as to whether am being unreasonable because of it or this would bother others as well.

It's so pointless isn't it! It's not just the number, but when he shows up on a date, he will look older than he did six years ago.

The bottom line is, if he were attractive to the women he wanted to attract, he wouldn't need to lie about his age. He may well have a notion in his head/dick that he won't date anybody who isn't at least six years younger than he is but how's that working out for him!???

He may get first dates with the women he'd like to date but they're going to notice the six years, even if it's not conscious, they'll sense a lack of vibrancy or something. They'll think well he seemed old for 45.

"I'd say men refusing to even consider dating someone their own age is a pretty good indicator that they are a wanker."

yes, could go on for weeks but this sums it up.

Oooh OP that was truly horrible then. Although in a way I suppose he's done you a favour by showing his true colours, just in case you were thinking of overlooking the age thing
