Matched with a guy who said he was a pilot, but his 'plane' was a flight simulator in his mom's basement

This was last month on Hinge. He sent a picture of him in a captain's hat, so I asked about his routes. He said he flew 'international,' but got nervous when I asked which airline. After two dates, he finally admitted he was a grocery store clerk and the 'cockpit' photos were from a $300 game setup. He said, 'It's basically the same thing, right?' Has anyone else had someone lie about their whole job?

That's a wild level of commitment to a lie. Sorry you had to deal with that.

Wild level of commitment" is my middle name, but usually it's just for pretending I remember people's birthdays.
