He's still a liar. Nothing good looking or rich about being a liar. Even if he was (either of those things) - the lying will not stop - trust me.

EVERYONE lies. Everyone.

He lied about his height, which is stupid because it's immediately apparent he lied. He might have lying problems, he might not. He might be a good guy who has been burned listing his true height because women will not go out with him when he's honest. Who knows.

Being burned doesn't make it okay for him to blatantly lie. If online dating doesn't work for him he should concentrate on meeting women offline. Lying is not his only option.

Liars don't lie about one particular thing. Think about it.

Disagree. Dating is a bit Machiavellian. Women use make up, hair spray, heels, jewelry, implants, spanx, teeth whitener, perfume, etc. Those are all lies. Men can fib if they want.

It is not the height that is a problem, it is the lying. Although short men come with their own baggage.

Stupid me for not writing to request exactly his age rather than assuming slightly above my range meant a few years.

When I walked in the bar, very early for happy hour, it was deserted other than a large elderly man with a pot of tea. I sat and waited until the elderly man approached and said my name! He was EASILY 70, possibly closer to 80.

I'd met guys who added inches but this guy more than doubled my max age and called it "slightly above."

I really hate narcissistic timewankers like that.

I flatlined right after reading “elderly man with a lot of tea”

Some guys want a woman that is “put together”. Other guys prefer more natural. I don’t know many woman that want a guy that is short but said he was 5’10. This is big preference and a big lie. That would be like me saying I’m white because AA woman have the least success in online dating of all ethnicities, try to win someone over with my sparkling personality via text and phone and then surprise when we meet face to face. You may not agree with someone’s dating preferences and it may not work in your favor but at some point you need to find the person that accepts you as you are and feel confident in who you are whether it is in vogue or not.

That's literally the worst analogy I've ever heard.

OP here. My weight isn't listed. I'm listed as 'athletic and toned' under body type because it's true. I'm 5' 6" and 135 pounds. I run three times a week and do a bunch of stretching each day.

Why did you take that PP's bait, OP? Glad you're "athletic and toned" in profile and in reality, but you do know you rose (or lowered yourself) to the bait there, right?

[Anonymous]

I shave 2 inches off any guys height up to 6 ft. After 6 ft I figure they are more accurate.

Similar to other PPS, women and men both lie about weight (often through pictures) and women lie about age.

Maybe to you, not to most people. Newsflash: NOT everyone lies. OP, the PP that mentioned that short men add 2 inches is accurate.

[Anonymous]

I'm a short man, OP, I'm used to that making me ineligible for many women and I think you should have nothing to do with this guy.

I think it's fine for people to put their best foot forward with flattering photos, but lies about basic facts (age, height, physical build, career, marriage status, kids) are deal-breakers.

"Not everyone lies" and "short men add 2 inches" are pretty bold absolutes. I'll wager you're fat, above 45, divorced, and in an apartment right now.

Struck a nerve, did I?
