We got chatting and really hit it off, met a couple days later and we got along so well and fell for each other so bad that i didnt end up leaving and so now ive moved in with him. We've already been through so much together, we really love each other. The thing is, i'm lying about my age. Hes 28 and i'm really 16, he thinks i'm 19. I didnt want to lie to him but i always tell people i'm 19 because people dont give you a chance when they know your 16. Like he wouldnt have looked at me twice if he'd have known the truth and we'd never have had what we have. I know that i really need to tell him but im so scared he's gona leave me for it! I guess considering we already have an age gap adding another couple years to it wont be so bad, but he might take it terribly because ive lied for so long.. I've wanted to tell him for ages because im petrified he'll find out but i cant bring myself to do it. I really dont know how he'll take it! He says he loves me and im the best thing thats happened to him, but wil that still stand when he knows the truth?

I hope he doesnt have that way of thinking cos thats not the way it is.. I only lied with the best intentions, i guess it could be called a white lie. If i hadnt have done it neither of us would be happy and together right now!

So just tell him, he might be a little angry at first and he could have some moral issues but make him understand you really like him. If he says "no" then he wasn't the right guy for you. Good luck :D

 I had an ex who did that to me, please notice I say ex! If you can lie about your age, what else can you lie about?
Come clean to him before he finds out for himself or buys you driving lessons, or wants to go on holiday and sees your passport or you get ID'd at a night club.
You really are setting yourself up for a lot of trouble, and the longer you leave it the more angry he will be, if he really loves you and you tell him honestly why you lied he may even forgive you.
