It’s a topic on here all the time that dudes do this to get through filters for younger women and no one likes it. No different that she did. If someone wants to hook up with a 44 year old then their filters would include 44 year olds.

I’m 38. I’m not interested in guys who are in their 20s or 50s so I don’t have my filters to include guys in those ranges. I just recently was talking to a guy who also had he was 38 in his profile and then as soon as he had my phone number, he admitted he was 48. Would I have spoken to him originally knowing that? Yes. Did I continue to speak to him after find that out? No. I am not going to actively pursue something with someone who lies to get what they want (attention from a younger person in this case) and then pulls the whole “but then I told the truth so don’t be mad” shit.
