"I should cancel, right?": Woman plans date with man she met on Hinge. Then she Googles him
"You're probably also lying about being a serial killer, no?"
A recent viral video shared by user Lexee on social media highlights a common concern in online dating: honesty about personal details. In the video, Lexee recounts her experience with a man she met on the Hinge dating app. After exchanging messages and making plans for a date, Lexee performed what she described as "due diligence" by searching for the man online. Her search revealed a discrepancy in his age. While his Hinge profile stated he was 38, public records indicated he was 40. Lexee expressed her frustration and confusion in the video, questioning the man's motives for lying about his age. "I don't care if he's 40," she stated, "What I care about is that he's lying about his age, apparently, and for what? And for why?" The incident has sparked a discussion among viewers about the importance of transparency in online dating and whether such a lie constitutes a significant red flag. Lexee concluded by asking her audience for advice on whether she should cancel the upcoming date, prompting varied responses from users who have faced similar situations.
