I dont get it either, to me your age is just a point in your life that you have reached. Would you want to take it away?. I consider myself lucky to have made it this far, some people dont. JMO

It could be that the person doesnt look their age, some ppl dont.

As for old pics, yep I know a few who have pics up that are years old, that is being deceitful in my opinion.

I met one guy for coffee once and walked right past him, he looked completely different, his pic was 15 years old lol


The correct age was on his profile though.


2 different issues here I think.

Well i guess that all depends on what they are here for. Not everyone is on CS for dating. Some people just come on the forums for a bit of banter and a bit of the craic. If they have no intention of meeting anyone and it makes them happy, let them keep on pretending if it makes them happy....JMO
