I've had exactly 3 men that I've dated lie to me about their age. I later learned that in two of those cases the truth wasn't their forte in general, anyway. One did it because he didn't want me to know that he never graduated high school. The other did it because he is an extremely vain person and very ashamed of his age.

I'm still not really sure why the third one did it. He hung around with a younger crowd, so that might have been part of it.

Hmm..... I'm 40, look my age I suppose, play like a 20 year old and think like a 50 year old (according to Mrs Baldrick).

So what's my 'lying age' I wonder... Is there a formulae?

Real age (a) * Visual age (b) - Play age (x) / Mental age (y) ? so....

a*b-x = 31.6 in my case. My wife laughed though.

And my very simple question is, how would a woman go about lying about the "original shape" of her body?

How about if she 'forgot' to mention that her boobs USED to be cup size B until she had plastic surgery and enlarged them to a cup size D and she "forgot" to mention that particular surgery as well.
Cripes, I thought it was pretty clear the first TWO times I explained it.....


**If you have to explain it 3 times, hopefully the charm of comprehension sticks soon**

Thanks for the attempt at an explanation. So you expect a woman you just meet to share her breast augmentation story with you unprompted? Do you feel deceived if she neglected to mention she dyes her hair blonde and is a natural redhead? Do you feel lied to if you find out that her perfect brow arch is the result of painstaking hair removal?

How can you be fooled by a 20 year old picture??? Clothing styles have changed, hair styles have changed, etc. Ask to see their webcam before meeting.

Back to the topic. Every person I've met thinks I look 7-12 years younger, so I just tell young women I'm 4-6 years younger than I am. The funny thing is, even then, most of them still say "wow you look so much younger than your age". Lol. At least I'm reasonable with it, not like the 60 year old guy who claims to be 40. That's absurd. I also don't give a long-winded answer when women ask for my age, because it lets them know you're insecure and women hate insecure guys. Plus they get suspicious and probe you with questions.

Women in their upper 20s and older tend to do the same when you ask them their age. They respond with "How old do you THINK I am??" I just subtract 4 years from what I think, then tell them that. It makes them happy.

Men lie because they want to date younger. I have had a few dupe me into a date from online sites. All you can do is say thanks but no thanks, and move on.

The same way you would expect the man to share with you his age, or the fact that he needs Viagra.
Most people have something to "hide" or, well... not to be blunt about it during the first few meetings.
Many women try to "reduce" their weight, appear blond while in reality they are brunette, don't talk about their Botox sessions, wear body shapers ( tummy belts, padded panty butt enhancers, padded bras or silicon inserts ) or hair extension - all that to fool others about their appearance.

The only real lie that would bother me about a woman's body, is if it used to be male. The other augmentations, enhancements, decreases, hey, no prob. But if you used to be an "Outie" and now you're and "Inny" mmm,, gonna have to rethink that lie of ommission.
