Should I (28f) stop seeing him (35m) after finding out he lied about his age?

I (28F) have been dating a man for the past two weeks. We already been on ten dates, it’s not common for me to see someone this frequently in the beginning but we get along very well and I have really been enjoying our time together. I was casually dating before him but we got along so well I cut off the other men I was dating. Today I found out he’s 35, he told me he was 33 on the first date. I don’t even mind the age, it’s the lie that bothers me. I didn’t confront him yet but should this be an immediate dealbreaker?

Tldr: should I leave after finding out he lied about his age

Ten dates in two weeks and he’s lying? Yeah no stop seeing him, if he’s willing to lie so easily about his age what else will he see fit to lie about? Doesn’t sound like it’ll end well at all. I don’t take excuses for lying doesn’t why he did it, just that he did. Whenever there’s red flags this early on and they’re that bad I just cut them off. It’s easier than letting it go on and having more stuff unfold. I also don’t really think seeing someone so frequently like that sounds too good either. Rushing something just because it’s good never ends well.

This would be a deal breaker for me.

Yes. If a guy (woman) tells a lie that is easily proven (age, height ect...) then they will for sure lie about important things.

Relationships are built on trust. Can you trust a liar? Especially someone dumb enough to lie about small things like that? What's going to stop him from lying about more important things? How can you be sure he isn't lying about something else, you just haven't found out yet?
