Older guys lying about their age on bumble

I guess we’re all familiar with people catfishing with super filtered pics that don’t even look like them… but has anyone experienced matching/meeting up with guys who have obviously lied about their age?

And by that I mean they state they’re younger – usually claim to be in their early-mid 30’s when they’re actually 40+ and the reason they do it is because they want to match with younger women (who they think are likely to set cut off age of 35 or smth).

I guess they’re more likely to get away with it as Asians generally look younger

Has anyone experienced this? I personally know a few friends who have and the thing is the men will admit to it because they think it’s totally not a big deal.

Just seems so bold when SG is small and we all probs have like 1-2 degrees of separation

Met a lady before who didn’t lie about her age but appearance. Sent me a pic taken 5 years ago.She was super slim in the pic but when I saw her in real, she was 3 times her size.

Yup pretty common. Could be to conceal their identity as well- a friend dated a guy who claimed he was in his mid-30s, went on quite a few dates and even hooked up before finding out he was actually in his 40s, was married and had kids. She nope’d out of that situation quick.

Yeah it’s pretty common. Have gotten messages from guys who admit that they’re way older than they claim and used an ancient photo after messaging for a while/ I asked for a video call.
