kevin715 Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Yesterday, I matched with someone on Tinder who was listed as 20 (I'm 27), and started talking to her and wound up setting up a lunch date with her today. She had her college listed on her profile and everything and she looked her age, but when I looked a little further into things, I'm starting to doubt that that's her real age. I never asked her about schooling or anything (again, since it was there on her profile, I had no reason to think anything was amiss), but since she has a rather unique first name, I was able to find her elsewhere, and apparently her timeline of high school line up to be in the range of being a senior in high school, which means she would be right on that 17/18 line, and I'm not willing to take any chances with that. Now I feel duped about all of this, but I don't know how to handle this with her going forward. Link to comment
Wiseman2 Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Wow, good you looked into it. What made you research it? Do you want to ask her directly or just not ask her out again? If she's jail-bait and lying, yeah, run.

kevin715 Posted March 11, 2017 Author Share Posted March 11, 2017 I generally try to look up anybody whom I might meet if possible regardless of circumstances, but I don't really talk about or bring up any "off-the-record" information face to face. I figure this will naturally come up today, so I won't force it. Link to comment
Andrina Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 I would think if she so easily lies about something so major, then what else would she lie about? Break the date. It's always about what's best for yourself, and if others get their feelings hurt, so be it. Just because she's got the body of a woman doesn't mean she is one. She's still a girl and her brain won't reach maturity until about age 25. Link to comment
annie24 Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Errr, yeah, don't go out with her then. Link to comment
Fudgie Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 You went out on one lunch date. You don't owe her anything. Honestly, you don't know if she is vindictive so you may want just ghost her rather than risk a fight. Link to comment
kevin715 Posted March 12, 2017 Author Share Posted March 12, 2017 I wound up calling off the date. I messaged her saying that I wouldn't be able to do it. She responded "it's ok" and that was the end of that. Link to comment
annie24 Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 good for you! and good you did the detective work. My friends make fun of me for looking up my dates online first, but I think you just showed how important it can be. Link to comment
Fudgie Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Next time, it may be worth asking to see someone's license before sleeping with them. Just a thought. Can't be too careful these days. Link to comment
