I know many you aren't a fan of dating apps and I understand why but bear with me because the principal applies to a lot more things.
Am I making a tactical mistake by lying about my age on a dating app? Perhaps it's counterproductive? For one thing they charge your subcription based on age so it can be a lot cheaper to lie not to mention within more age limits set by girls.
Attempt to answer own question:-
I suppose you might say just own your age if you lie about it you are being an insecure bitch.
On the other hand some girls may set a cut off age. If you lie about your age you can be within the criteria giving you more options.
Women have no hesitation to lie and manipulate to get what they want so why can't I. Lots of women will lie by either posting misleading profile pictures or lying about the amount of men they are talking to on the app etc.

Too many of you guys on here cannot figure out within yourselves what you want in life and depend so heavily on what other people think of you
Figure out what you want in life instead of aimlessly drifting from one insecurity to another.
So many men come on here with no real direction they are trying to take their journey and it shows in their AskTRP questions.
A lot of you guys come on here with absolutely no semblance of a long term goal and then get tons of varied answers because no one knows what your goal is. It's just one aimless scenario bluring into another from one week to the next and you're doing a disservice to yourself.

Thanks for your reply.
I agree with the first part I really struggle to figure out what I want in life maybe its because of depression or anxiety or some other mental illness but I do struggle to make up my mind about what the fuck I want thats 1OO% true I feel like I'm a leaf in the wind drifting.
As for caring what other people think I dont really give a fuck I was asking practically what would work best to get a hookup to lie or tell the truth it wasnt about getting anyones approval.

Hey man, it's been like six months since someone posted about lying about their age. We should get a an AI counter going for basic questions like Days since last accident signs for industrial workplaces.

Sorry I missed that although the search bar doesnt always seem to work great as I search for specific comments I remember reading and cant find them. It seems the one from 7 months ago was regarding an LTR not a hookup so was rather different in my view.

This is what Vermy meant when he said you guys all think your situation is unique. It's not. If you actually read those post, you're getting similar responses that boil down to; why would you feel the necessity to lie?
I'm in full agreement with Musicgoon, I don't lie because of a moral compass, I don't lie because it's a hassle to keep straight long term.
I actually find it hilarious this is a a reoccurring issue among men lying that their younger because I've never been turned down because I was too old (early 30s) but in my early 20s I got turned down by even girls my own age for being too young.
Women enjoy older men. If you think about it logically women are most fertile in their early 20s, what man has enough life experience and wants to give up adventure for raising kids at that age?
End of the day if you're going to lie to get
ahead in lifepussy, you need to get really good at lying. Which frankly, most people don't have in them.Vermillion-Rx Admin 1d ago
These guys will never use the search bar to find the answer to basic questions because their situation is always "unique"

How old are you, and how old are your target women?
Your rationale is "some other people are bad therefore it's ok for me to be bad".
This will limit you in life to bad people.
Some do.
Some don't.
You are on the path to lying to people and only hanging out with liars.

I would not g8ve 2 fucks about essentially a whore market (dating APS), as long as it doesn't affect your own image, but then sometimes you need to do something to see how does it affect you. It would become a problem if you do it constantly and you feel disgraced with yourself, then you stop or look for someone to tell you not to give fuck and start to believe it.
Farang131 2d ago
Thanks for your reply. Fair enough
Start to believe what? That you should not give a fuck?
Disgraced about what? Being on the app in the first place or the lying?

Something that beings discomfort. Say blue pill, it is hard to stop it if you get no one around to plant a seed or show or help you to stick to a path.
But my example is more general, there is many choices you will not know other possibilities, you might feel discomfort, either because of peer pressure or internal discomfort. Guide will help, but you have to pay something for it.
Like here I see some folks say you bringing simple shit and mental wank. If you'd pay for it you'd know that wank costs.
You don't pay now, but you will pay later.

If you got your shit together, you don't need to lie. You can just say, "This is the package, bitch. Now tell me why I should pick you."

Dude. What's with the overthinking.
Fix it. So many of your questions are all downstream of the same problem.
Why the fuck do you care? If you're lying merely for pussy then so what? You clearly decided to already and know it works for you. If you are lying and then later feel compelled to be honest for the sake of an eventual relationship that you weren't expecting after lying then of course it's a problem
Do you value authenticity or not? You already know honesty isn't required for sexual strategy. You know you are not asking a sexual strategy question.
Why are you so fixated on what others think. If you value authenticity then be authentic. Why do you want women to like you for someone you're not. So complicated.

When you lie, you have to keep it up. The habit builds and then you have to remember everything you said and always censor yourself. Ask yourself if you need that headache?

It depends on your aims.
There is almost no man alive who has not lied to a woman at some point. From "I like vegetarian food" and "Your mum is nice" at one end of things to to "I am only 2 years older than you" and "I am a rich and successful, decorated combat veteran" at the more extreme end.
As with most things there is a spectrum. Bear in mind that lies always come with an associated risk of being found out and that risk increases over time, so lying is best reserved for short term encounters with trashy women you don't respect.
Beyond that a man just makes his choice how he wants to be thought of long term and play things short term.
One observation is that if you find yourself lying a lot, it may be that you are overvaluing pussy. You will have it at the price of not being yourself. You will lie to skanks you do not respect because you value what they have between their legs more than your good character. That sounds a little harsh and its worth remembering that we may all have avoided confronting some inconvenient truth or other some evening when we just wanted to feel better nutting in a pussy. None of us are perfect but its also healthy to ask how far into imperfection are you happy going?

Good answer thank you
