1 year doesn't make all that much difference, and if you'd told her the truth, then there would not have been any problem. The difference between being 5 years older or 6 years older is much less significant than lying to her. Why did you do this? Lying for no reason about even small things is a big red flag that one does well not to ignore.
Still ,it doesn't seem like a breakup would be warranted over such a small matter.I know I don't particularly like to reveal my age . I don't think not being so truthfull about one's age necessarily means you will be dishonest in all other aspects of life.Perhaps the OP felt his girlfriend wouldn't have been interested had he told her his true age[one year ,big deal!!] .Maybe it's for the best OP.
