Lie About My Age?

Welll it's probably best not to take advice from me anyway as I've not set foot in a bar in a good year or so. And when I do I'm pretty much anti-social except for the people I'm with.

Not a bar-goer, I.

Well, I only have a select FEW that I talked to.
The beauty of living in a college town?
The scenery is always beautiful.
Course, once you pass 25, you're considered OLD!

See..I HATE living in college towns- but that's all I've ever known. I've always skewed older in people I'm attracted to - so now - the college kids don't appeal to me at all. Pretty much they just annoy the **** out of me

In Rochester there were lots of bars/clubs where young professionals like myself hung out - I've not found that here...but that's more my scene. Basically I'm an uppity snob

Oddly, I usually find, by far, the most satisfying conversations with the older people there(try getting most 21yo's to talk about FM!).
And although I thought I was hiding the fact that I'm a snob too, I've been informed that I don't(hide it very well).

I don't hide it well either, though I've been thinking of working on ways to make myself a much less unpleasant person in public. We'll see if I go through with that

Growing up my sister was 10 years older than I, and she got stuck watching me a lot - so I was around her friends and such a lot. I think that has resulted in my gravitation toward older crowds and people. Of course since I moved to Colorado I've not gone out AT ALL...so that's going to have to change sometime in the near future.

My friend lied to her husband about her age when he first asked her out. She told him she was about 3 years older than she was. She thought he was too young and was trying to discourage him, which did not work. She also lied about her middle name. Woops. Her first and middle names rhyme and she thought that was some cruel joke so she lied about it to him. He was really pissed when he found out though. He's a very nice guy and fortunately for her it did not ruin things!

The first and last time I lied about my age was when my mom called my 18 yr old "boyfriend" and told him I was 15 not 17!

Well yeah - had I not come clean with my one and only age lie - it would have unraveled anyway as this gal came to pick me up for a date at home and my mom totally told her off, and revealed my real age. Ugly. Things didn't really last too long with that relationship

Last nite after kickball at the bar I asked a teammate to explain flip cup to me, the drinking game the kids play these days. He then asked me where I went to school and proceeded to tell me he's sure they played it at that school. I said it was after my time. He wouldn't tell me his age. He told me, before I told him the year I graduated, that maybe I was one of those people who doesn't look my age.

I know I'll probably never lie about it. As uncomfortable as it can be to be "outted" I think I'd be more uncomfortable trying to lie. I'm not a good liar. I suppose that is something to be proud of.

By the way, said teammate is tall and very cute. Damn baby boys.
