Single online daters lying on their profiles France in 2021

Staying anonymous online can be quite tricky for online dating. Thus, in France in 2021, the source had asked French singles who have used online dating apps and those who haven't, if they have or if they could imagine lying about several topics on their dating app profiles. Thus, the most common thing for people with an online dating profile, and without one, was lying about their place of residence.

If you ever signed up for a dating site or application, could/did it happen that you lied about some things on your profile?
