We are living in a female dominant society. The rules of what is and what is not appropriate are now decided by women and their low testestorone male enablers. In this society, in order to keep their own sexual value alive as they get older, women have decreed that any relationship beyond a 5 year gap is somehow unacceptable.
First I've heard of it.
What is the difference between out right lying and evading the question or playing games with her when she asks like, "wow, good guess" or what ever.
Here's the difference as I see it, although I'm sure others see it differently:
The purpose of evading the question or making her guess is to make her work for the answer, make her invest her time into you, make her "jump through your hoops" as it were. Making her invest in you is a basic principle.
For me, I just don't think that it's necessary for me to lie about my age in order to get laid. I'm not even sure it would be worth it. It seems very fake to me, like making up a different personality just to get some sex.
I've had friends who have had a lot of success with lying to women to get a quick piece, but I guess it's just incongruent with my personality. I don't even want to be bothered with the effort to lie. Lies beget more lies, then you have to remember what lies you told to whom, etc., etc.
I knew this girl, she was quite interesting, at least HB 8.7, at LEAST. But she was a compulsive liar. And it was very distracting talking to her because she wasn't very good at covering them up, one thing would contradict something else she said. If you called her on it, she would get very angry and defensive. A shame, really.
It's not even the lying though. It's why aren't you good enough AS YOU ARE to get laid and why don't you think so? Why do you have to make yourself a different age? It seems ridiculous to me.
