A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I just typed in the e-mail address of the guy I'm currently dating into google, and it came up on 2 websites. They're random websites for cagefighting, but on one it says his age is 23, and on the other it says his age is 24.

He told me he was 20 and I know for a fact he's at Uni.

Do I have the right to flip and stop dating him and cut him off or should I ignore this?!

I'm 18 and I don't know if he's just flat out lied to me!

Just ask him. If he's being disloyal now, then he will probably be disloyal in the future. Get it out of him before it becomes something more complicated and hard to get out of. If he did lie to you about your age, its really silly and petty, if he thinks he can lie to you once and get away with it once, even if it is a small thing like age, then he will think he can get away with it in the future with bigger things like he cheated on you etc.

Hope this helped x

I think it depends on how long you have been dating and how much you care about him.

Based on your question, it sounds like maybe you haven't been dating him that long.

If you're ready to move on and just want to date someone else, I would dump him.

If you think you and him might have a chance at having something more special, I would certainly bring it up and talk to him about it.

Hey,

What exactly is your problem? The age difference or that he may have lied to you?

You can't know what his real age is, because it could be that he lied about it online. He may think that other people won't take him seriously if he's too young.

He could have lied to you, because he didn't want the age difference to become a problem. That's no legitimation for a lie, though.

The only way to solve this in a reasonable fashion is to talk to him about it, and demand clarification. Six years isn't a major age difference. It's perfectly healthy in my opinion.

Cheers,

Theoir

I originally asked the question..

Okay so I just went on myspace, typed in his e-mail address, and it came up with a profile that he created in 2006, but it says his age is 23.

On the student room website, his profile says he's 23.

On this cagefighting website, his age is 23.

I cannot believe this.

He said he's 20, and he's at uni.

He's lied to me.

OMG what do I do people do I confront him?!!!!
