Well, it's not ideal. But you're technically above age, so there is nothing wrong here other than that you lied. Just be open and honest, and explain why you lied, and if he likes you, he'll get over it.

6 year age gap. Be honest and tell the truth, I think that even if he knows your real age he would leave you regardless unfortunately because I hope what you both are doing he especially without him knowing is extremely wrong. It’s a big age gap a worrying one too if it’s 1 or 2 years then I can understand but in no way is this even something considered as a sacred bond between you both and that too without honesty well honesty alone as a trait in a relationship :confused:

i'm gonna be so real with you, tell him the truth then break up with him. it's literally been two months and sorry to tell you but that's not love, especially if it's online. a 6 year age gap is insane, you're at completely different stages of life and realistically it's not going to work. sorry to be harsh but u need a reality check asap
