Members of both sexes lie, not all of either one.

Men lie mostly about their age, relationship status, height, intentions, shoe size, and penis size.

Women typically lie about age, weight(and usually only because they are self conscious about it), and sometimes how many sex partners they've had.

Lies are lies, none are good. Everyone who lies does it for their own reasons. I am not stating that anyone's reasons are excuses, but reasons ARE normally different. Some people lie solely to manipulate others and be selfish. Some people lie to protect themselves from judgment. Some people lie because they are just straight up compulsive liars and don't know the difference anymore between the truth and a lie. Before anyone complains, yes I do know that women lie about more than what I listed.

A little advice to all. Not everyone is going to lie to you and deceive you. Take each person as an individual and don't assume they are going to be just like the last @sshole who lied to you. Trust like you've never been hurt, but keep your eyes open when things look fishy. One day someone will surprise you by not lying and being a true person towards you. That day you will find love. We all have to stop automatically distrusting everyone because of past experience. Its not good for us. Let those past pains stay where they belong and do not bring them into a new relationship. If you stay in yesterday, tomorrow will pass you by.

Well said.

Thanks for the advice

No kidding!

good post

You say no lies are good, what about when a woman asks you if her outfit makes her look fat and it does. Isn't lying about that appropriate?

I like to say that we have a responisibility to each other (as part of society) to give each other the benefit of the doubt. Besides, I believe that in most cases (not all!) that people do have a strong desire to be good. Also, even good people do bad things sometimes - especially when they are desperate.


In addition, I listen & trust my instincts whenever they send me warning lights.

First of all, if you truely love a woman you will not see her as fat period. Secondly you little trouble maker...lol, its okay to say "Not fat, it just doesn't flatter your beautiful body as much as that other one you had in your hand" or point out one that does flatter her more.

very well said

FYI I never saw my Ex as fat,bad hair or anything negative I loved her for who she was

Just saying there are instances where a lie will cause less harm than the truth. I see things not as black or white, but shades of gray.

Suppose you are planning a surprise for your significant other,(this could be something like a bd party or maybe you are planning to propose and are ring shopping) they notice that you have been gone a lot and ask them what you have been up to. Do you tell the truth and ruin the surprise and all the work you put into it, or do you lie? I personally would lie and then when the surprise happened let them know that I was actually planning that all along.

In addition, women have different body types so, regardless if she is overweight or not, a particular style or cut may not be the best choice for her body type. Forcus on body type and not weight.

I never lie Ok but only this one time




you are so correct

You just like picking arguments...lol. That would be a completely different story than someone lying to be a jerk.

Wow you guys dont get the point. Its not the weight issue. Its the things women do, they ask for your opinion on how something looks on them and get mad if you don't give a positive response. Thats all I am referring too.

ONLY drama queens do that. Most women are smart enough to either NOT ask at all, or really want a second opinion if they do.
