Height discrepancies
| Fri, 08-05-2005 - 11:19am |
So I talked to the guy last night on the phone, with whom I am meeting tonight. He had asked me if I was 5'10 as my profile stated, and I told him I was. Then I asked him if he was 5'11, like his profile said. He said no, that he is 6 feet and a half inches. Umm ok... You'd think if guys were going to fudge on their height they'd say they are taller on their profile? I will have to see when I meet him, he may end up being my height LOL
Do you girls find guys tend to bend the truth about things like height on their profiles? Just curious.

Bend the truth??? HAHAHAHAHAHAH
A piece of advice to OLD men: just because it's a blind date, doesn't mean the lady can't see with her own eyes that you are shorter, older, cheaper than your profile leads her to believe!
But back to you, cowgirl. Please, please ask him why on earth he has lied downwards! I really can't figure this one out.
Thanks!

It is interesting that he lied downward. Isn't 6' the optimum height for a guy anyway? Why not list that as your height if that truly is?!
I went out with a guy once who was shorter & owned up to that, but his profile listed him at 5'6". I'm 5'3" & I seemed to tower over this guy when I finally met him & I wasn't wearing heels! Since he was that short, I could understand why he'd want to fudge it to get better matches, so I glossed over that. Of course, there was zero spark, so it didn't matter anyway.

Hahahaha..lied downwards, too funny!!!! Please, do ask and shed some light on this! Guys want to paint a picture of themselves. Most of them are assholes, but do they put that in their profile? Here is a truthful profile for you:
I am a 50 year old married man. I often have troubles getting it up and since I do not know how to treat a woman, my wife has quit sleeping with me. I do not really want to take you on a date. I don't want to waste the money. What I do want is sex. I am looking for an attractive, immoral, provacative woman. I don't care how old she is, but it would be nice if you are in the 18-24 yr bracket. Please send nude pics.
Had the meet last night, and I think he was probably being truthful on the 6' that he told me on the phone. I didn't bother asking why his profile was shorter (actually I was too busy trying not to be nervous lol). Perhaps it was a mistake?? I may ask him in a future email. I think it is kind of funny, at least he wasn't trying to make himself sound taller.
