The biggest liars
According to our friends across the pond, men are bigger liars” Men lie the most and feel less guilty about it — but women are the better liars, a British survey has found.” You have to love those studies! Human behavior and the reason we do the things we do always plays out on the dating scene.
It’s kind of par for the course to either catch someone in a lie or tell some zinger to someone to get out of something, or um into something. I suppose there are times when we feel justified in lying by omission, misleading people, or outright telling a very tall tale. It’s still very wrong. Yet, somehow lies lead to more lies.
It’s actually a real issue that a lot of us face and sometimes worry about. How do you know if the person you have met and started dating is not a raging liar?
The CNN article listed the the top male lies and top female lies. I am curious to know what are some of the craziest lies you’ve ever heard? I’ve had men get pretty creative with their “enhancement on the truth” stories. I could totally write a book! I think the biggest liar was the guy who claimed he had a twin brother and tried to date my college room mate and I simultaneously. Ah, the memories!
I’m no angel though, I once told a guy that I cooked some meals that were actually catered foods. He was one of those “she must cook” guys that I was trying to impress. I was busted on the third time, though!
What about you? Who was your biggest liar? What are you guilty of lying about? No judgment here!

Lie that I have told my husband when we were supposed to go out with a ex friend/associate of his that I cannot stand:
I don’t feel too well so you will have to go without me.

M., I thought my woman would not lie. LOL we were somewhere and needed to get something done and she got it done. But it was the first time I seen her lie that I knew of and I even believed the lie she was telling someone else that I knew was not the truth. We laughed about it later because she always used to pride herself on “not lying” LOL.
Ragi, do you honestly believe a man who said he is just going to stick the head in or he could say “My hip slipped, sorry”

What women do is tell Half Truths
M.- You hit the nail on the head as it was said probably a couple days ago and the funniest part is that women tend to want to justify a half truth as not a lie. But our “half truths” is just a plain ole damn lie to them.
The bottom line to it all though is that we alllllll lie and the first person that says they don’t lie is a DAYUM LIAR.

Women lie so much they start to not even recognize that it IS a lie. It’s sparing someone’s feelings; it’s compensation for real or imagined bias against women; it’s refusal to let that big-headed woman assert that her kids/husband/house/blah-blah-blah is all that. Women are raised to believe that this kind of behavior eases relationships and is the way for woman to be. It creates a gender of liars.
Men lie too, that’s for sure. We just suck at it. You know when we’re lying. British people are from a different planet or something, they lie as a matter of national pride.

Her Ex: Walks up, hey whats up brother how you doing. Says to her, hey babe how you been, I havent seen you, I miss you…
Her: (Looking surprised and scandelous…) Im good just been busy..
ME: Closing my tab and about to leave this trick right here:
Her Ex: Well yall enjoy the night….Ill see you later right?
Her: Cool just call me.

abc – I kind of agree that some women are raised under a scheming doctrine, but it wont stop b/c it works so well with men. A good amount of men don’t seem to be able to tell the difference between honest and scheming women…or don’t seem to care. They will question the hell out of an honest woman and give a lying rag an easy pass. It happens all the time.

abc you tickle me every time a topic like this comes up. Do you feel about your wife they way you always say women are when it comes to not telling the whole truth?
And you are correct, you all do suck at it. You all are better off just not saying anything period instead of trying to lie about it.

@Prof ~ your #7 at 8:53 right on point. And, you best show up even if LURKER doesn’t.
@LadyJ ~ I was told my heart is made out of bricks. Who me, as I looked around the room? I was told this simply because I called him on his BS lies. It is what it is and I’m not accepting just because you said it!
@M. ~ I’ve never lied about the # of partners because I’ve always believed that to be an asinie question so I simply ignore it.
Well, well, well, look who popped home for a visit…LorDemi. Head nod!
Yes, we all lie and women are better at it. Most of you men look foolish when you lie.
