In reply to Kim. Not cool. I would stop the relationship asap. How could you not tell he lied by a "large gap?"

You can lie and if the person doesn’t like you enough to excuse the lie when it eventually comes to light then they weren’t right for you long term anyway. Any good relationship that was meant to be would survive something trivial like that, age is just a number.

Any type of lie isn’t good, whether it is about your age or anything else. Relationship must begin with everything truth there is. The reason is that whatever lies you told your partner during dating will one day be exposed and your partner won’t like it.

In reply to Kim. Going through the same thing right now, don’t know what to do or think! Did you stay with him? What happened if you don’t mind me asking?

I met a young man on line who lied about his age by a large gap. I fell in love with him and our connection was very strong. I literally have never met anyone like him. He started feeling guilty and confessed his real age. I was upset and disappointed but still wanted to be with him. He says he did it because of his desire to date only older women no one would give him a chance so he lied for that reason so that I’d get to know him. Admittedly, he’s more mature than a lot of men my age. I’m fact the most mature and emotionally balanced man I’ve met. But he lied. Im so confused because I feel tricked into loving this man. I can’t tell my family nor my friends because I am embarrassed that I got tricked. Plus if I stay with him they will always think that he has an agenda.

Why if I lie, saying I’m 49 but am really 50? When my 51st birthday came around my fella and his family spoilt me with gifts and hotel spa break, thinking it was my 50th birthday. Do I admit my lie?

Yes lying about your age isn’t good but get real as a woman of a certain age , perceptions of age never change. Men can get away with more when it comes to real age, not women
