 If you told him you are 30 when really you are 36 well then yes this could complicate the relationship. The age gap might not be an issue to him but am sure the lying will be. He will start to wonder then what else you have lied about and it will cause trust issues.
Either way you need to tell him yourself before someone else tells him. Apologize and just speak the truth to him about why you done it.

 If you let him assume it and didn't lie to him it's easy just tell him...
IF you lied it's a bit more complicated... and you have to tell him but you should preface it with the fact that you know you were deceitful and why.
FWIW your gap is not a big deal. my husband is 42 I'm 55

i'm sorry but you're just gonna have to take a chance. what i don't understand is why didn't you correct him the first time he mentioned thinking you are 30... anyway, you can't change that.. so just buck up the courage and find a way to bring it into your conversation very casually and tell him your age.. age shouldn't matter if you guys actually like each other.. but he does have d right to know, in case that changes anything for him. come clean. Good luck
