Dating older guy who lied about how many kids and age.

I've been dating a guy for about two months now. The problem is that Im 31 and Im dating a 42 old never married guy. Originally he said he had 2 girls and a boy by two different women and that one of them was a newly 9 month old baby who lives over in another state.

But today he says that he has 3 older kids and that the baby would total 4 children. So that would mean that he has a 20, 18 and 17yr old by the first lady. and a baby by other woman. I say that he never said anything about the 20 yr old until now. He says he told me that and I say that he didnt. I'm sure he said only had three but he says he told me three and a baby.

Plus in the beginning he lied about how old he was and said 40 instead of his real age of 42. When I ask him why, he said bc he knew I a problem with how old he was he taught I would talk to him if he said 42. Im already still slowly getting over the age lie plus difference and feel like he conveniently left the fourth kid out.

I feel 3 is pushing it and 4 is even worser. Should I over look these two things and give him another chance? He treats me very well and better than any one ever has aside from those two issues. Should I leave him alone or just see where it goes. Help!

Do you know what went wrong with those other women? Take things slowly if you're still interested, but be careful so that you aren't woman #3.

Hi, been there done that! I was dating a guy who lied about having children. He then mentionned he had one, then a week later, it was two kids. He had also lied to me about his age. Anyway, I ended up staying with him for 3 years. Bigest mistake of my life. I should have known it was trouble, someone shouldn't lie at the beginning and for someone like me who does not have children and put myself in a situation like that was hard! I never would date someone who has kids again! Too much drama with the Ex, the kids, ughh!! just too much!

Thanks for the replies above. I figure that if a man can lie about such simple things as age and amount of children then I cannot trust him as far as I can throw him. I did ask him to show me some ID and he never did. Said that I offended him by asking to see the proof of age, so with all that said, I dropped him cold turkey a few weeks ago. Hopefully, he will stop calling and stop just happening to find ways to run into me soon. Trust, and honesty are the key to a successful relationship.

Run! I just broke up with a man who lied to me. I knew him as a teenager and we hadn't seen eachother in 30 years. It was great for 3 months. I asked him if he ever had sex with anyone other than his wife while he was married. He said "No. Just my wife." Turns out I broke up with him because of anger issues I didnt like and we talked on the phone after breakup and he admitted he and his wife were swingers for 20 years!!!!! I ran and got a blood test. He lied because he knew I wouldn't date him. Run, run run. Once they lie they can lie about anything. It comes easy to some people. He tried to appologize. It doesn't matter. I loved him too, it was tough to let go but i am seeing a great guy now that doesn't lie. No one can live with a person they don't trust. I am 52 and have tons of good years left of loving and refuse to do it with someone who is not worth my time. Run!!!!!
