Do you lie about your weight on your driver's license?

I did b/c I don't want my boyfriend to ever see my ID and know much I weigh! I weigh 185 but my DL shows 135. And it says my hair is brown, but I've dyed it since then, it's more reddish-brown, like auburn.

He thinks I'm 165, but if I put 185 on my DL he'll know I'm not 165.

he doesn't care than I'm not 135, but he weighs about 170 and I don't want him knowing I weigh more than him

Good thing my boyfriend doesn't get on here. Lying about your weight is like lying about your age. It's not like I'm out cheating on him or something.

I'm not lying - he thinks I weigh 165 so why burst his bubble?

My drivers license in AZ is over 10 years old and I don't have to renew it for another 18 years..so there's point in what it says..people age and change...but I am pretty sure your bf knows you way a lot more then 135...that's kind of haed to hide.

Yeah, he's probably figured it out! I lost some weight though but I'm still about 35-40 pounds over what my DL said. I got a new one and didn't lie this time!

my weight isn't on my driving license. why would it be? I hardly ever weigh myself unless I am visiting someone with a set of scales in the bathroom, and I get curious. usually I weigh about 9 and a half stone. sometimes it's been about 9, sometimes up to 10 and a half. I don't look any different at either of those ends of that scale. so, I don't know what i weigh. so why would my driving license know. in the UK it doesn't have your weight. I can't see any good reason to have your weight on the license.

i don't see any reason at all why i should lie about any information about myself. there is nothing to hide at all. as for the hair color, you are rigtht about saying that it is now in accordance with whatever hair color one uses. as of now, though, i am wearing my natural greying hair color. actually, i have never tried dying it ever before and, until now, i am not considering having it dyed justhe same.

I'm in the same boat you are. When I got my license, I said I was 135 too and I was actually 150. I think I lied more for myself then anything. I didn't want to admit that I was that big. Its been six years since I got my license and it still says 135 pounds. To this day no one knows how much I actually weigh!!

Haha, I didn't lie on my driver's license, the info I gave out was just wrong, my weight is wrong, so is my height, and my hair color is never one color, ah, oh well.

I don't think my weight is on my drivers license. If it were it would constantly be wrong because my weight fluctuates a lot. If people didn't have to look at your i.d. so much I wouldn't mind but you get carded everywhere...and most of the people who card you really have no business knowing most of the info on your i.d.
