For context we are 47 and 46. We recently met a couple that listed their ages online as 49 and 48. After a few play dates and building a connection with them, we’ve found out their ages are actually 54 and 56. They clearly look good for their age. We kinda suspected they were older than us.
It got us wondering how common it is to lie about your age in the LS. It just seems odd to us that a very high percentage of people we meet “in their mid to late 40s” are already empty nesters. Either everyone had kids in their early twenties or people are lying about their age.
I expect the Reddit virtue signaling hive mind will say don’t lie about anything ever. We are wondering if we are doing ourselves a disservice by being honest about our ages ok our profiles. When using apps/sites with ages, we tend to only attract people our age and older. At takeovers or in person, we routinely attract younger couples that at least represent they are in their late 40s to early 40s.
I guess one could also ask the same question around height and weight.
What says the group? Is shaving a few years off in your profile fairly standard or no?
I think the under 40 crowd is rather small 🤷🏽♂️ you are gonna go broke w that model
We like you both already 😂 low bar

That’s really the chemistry/brooklyn crowd which is different from the swinging scene (it’s people going through the experimental space/open marriages/poly). Definitely more transient.
