Girls lyin bout their age

Do girls do that for real?
But why and whats the use of it? :confused:

I know I joke around of being 54 :smiley: (which I m not)
but i heard some ladies do lie about it more often and with a pokerface :slight_smile:

I understand that a girl doesnt want to tell it, but why lie about it?

insecurity issue.

I do not lie about my age.

na.Maybe because they can get away with it.:D

i dont understand it..

i mean when someone who is obvously 34 claims that she is 27, the thought thats comes to mind is not, wow you are so much younger than i thought, but "daaamn u aged quickly"

what is better, someone knowing your real age and complimenting that you look much younger than you are

or

telliong people that you are 27 when you are actually 34 and the onlooker thinking dang she aged quickly..i wonder what she will be like at 34 :)

That is something I will never understand as long as I live. What is so special about telling someone you're 10 when you're say 40! Ok, I'm exaggerating but the point is, who the heck cares what your age is?! Kids lie about their age to appear older and more mature while older folks lie about it to look young. It's pretty stupid though. Age is age, and it can't be changed no matter what (notwithstanding wonders of modern technology, but be that as it may...hehehe...) so a person should never hide his/her true age. Staying quiet about it is one thing but outright lying is quite another.

I know a few ladies who got stuck in late 20's, bcz they thought that to be a magical line in the sand... and if they wish to get married they have to stay on the good side of the line and stay at high 20's and not cross over to the big bad 30's. Its all seems a psychological thing to me.

That or some film actresses who forever get stuck celebrating their 21st birthdays (presumably for box-office purposes), I am not sure if all this "hiding your age" thing works for anyone.

^Speaking of crossing lines, I will be doing just that in August as I turn 30. I have no qualms about it whatsoever. As a matter of fact, although I will celebrate my birthday in an understated fashion with family and friends as I normally do, to me, the big “three-o” is nothing more than a number. All it means is that I have thus far survived 30 years in this world…nothing too earth-shaking about that.

:flower1:

I think it's all to do with how society views the whole aging process.

I mean when a guy is around 30 or over- he's seen as suave and experienced ,etc.

When a women is over 30 or 40, she's simply seen as somebody whos losing her looks ,and hitting middle age.

^ agree with MQ ... i dun lie about my age either ...

I’m a woman and I never lied about my age and I don’t think I ever will. It’s simply beyond me why anybody would lie about there age! your talking about women, heck my uncle has been 28 for the past four years, men are liars too.

:flower1:

i never lie abt my age but i know some women [and even men btw] who do. its stupid to lie abt ur age tho i reckon.

women dont age after 18 :snooty:

the interesting thing is, how can ppl in Pakistan get passports with a fake date of birth on it. I KNOW people and their real ages, and then their passports say something else.

Another funny thing is when people star messing up. like if someone tells you. I am 24, and I got married when i was 20, and then they are celebrating their 7th wedding anniversary :) I kinda said, oh but i thought u were 20 when u got married..response-> no i must have been mistaken i said my husband was 20 when we got married. oh right..so that makes him 27 now? but you were just telling us how much grief he hgot from his family when he turned 30 in 1998.

advise; either dont lie, or just make sure all the dates match your lie.

I never lie about my age, why do it?

I don't lie..but to be honest..it feels really wierd saying 31.

31 sounds so much older than i feel..or look..

however... like fraudia said saying my real age is well worth everyone's surprise and comments that I don't look 31..:)

try asking them about their weight :hehe:

we’re not talking mental age here ..

Today a girl at my university said she was 25 and this white guy just stared at her and said your kidding right you can pass for 20 you know, and he asked me what would you guess her age to be and I just looked up and shrugged and said I don't know, and then he continued to stare at her in awe until she just scrammed out of there! see girls don't lie!

...or like observant guys, eh PM. :p
