Search Results: lying friend

Me (13) and my friend (12) met up with this “14” year boy on Monday who we were friends with on MovieStarPlanet for months. He added me on Snapchat because we realised we lived in the same town so we decided to meet up in the park but we had an another friend watching incase it was an actually a weirdo.

When we met he looked older so I asked him and told us he was actually 19 instead of 14 and his selfies were from 2019 and 2020. He was everything he said he was except his age. He was really nice and we played in the park and he said he’s like to meet up again.

Even though he was the real him I am annoyed about him pretending to be 14 and he’s actually 19 and I think 14 and 19 is a big difference. He wants to go to the cinema on Monday next week and watch Despicable Me 4 (I’ve already seen it but yeah) but I can’t have anyone finding out we’ve met someone off the internet because our parents would be fuming.

Should I forgive him for lying about his age or what should I do?

So, I am a second-generation immigrant from a very traditional and conservative country, now living in one of the most liberal Western countries in the world. I am very grateful to be living here as the quality of life and opportunities are just a lot better; however, needless to say, the cultural differences are immense.

One of the things that always bothered me growing up was this "rush" to lose your virginity, especially as a guy. My friends would drag me along to clubs and stuff, and I'm not a bad-looking guy by any means, and opportunities for me to have "one-night stands" have presented themselves, but I never really had any interest in this.

Call me corny, but the idea of being intimate with someone I do not have a very strong emotional connection with, someone who couldn't be my wife in the future, did not appeal to me.

Guys talk about this stuff, and I am open about this in my friend group as I don't feel like lying about it, but I find myself being the subject of "virgin" jokes quite often, especially considering my age (which isn't an abnormal thing in my home country).

Now, I know it's all in good fun and I know they have no malicious intent, but I can't help but wonder if this would be a problem for potential future mates. So my question to you girls is, if a guy you were dating in his mid to late twenties said he was a virgin, would you immediately associate that with negative attributes? Would this be a problem or perhaps not your first choice, would you be indifferent or heck even prefer it?
