It's not new. "Small lies on first dates" has been a thing forever.
If I match with someone and then they tell me that the age on their profile isn't accurate, that's an immediate end for me. If you're willing to lie about your age on the dating app I'm not taking any chances trusting anything you tell me.
I used to respond to "how tall are you?" with "5'11 unless you ask my tinder profile, then I'm 6 foot" which usually got a chuckle
im like 5'11" and change and I always respond 6ft. Never thought much of it until my brother had a kinipchin that I was just shy of 6 foot.
That's the best spelling of conniption I've ever seen :)
yeah Im not sure I ever saw it written out before so winged it. I will keep in mind for future.
i say 182cm. gets them everytime.
