Hello Mylotters
It actually needs a brave person to tell the truth about his/her lies ..
I confess that I had to make some lies to my GF , because she souldn't have accepted the truth about what she asked for .. but it was only about two or three times , and for sure I wasn't cheating on her and it wasn't a serious thing .
is that a bad thing ? I think that telling something beautiful is better than telling the truth sometimes ..
how about you .. have you ever lied to your GF or BF ? how many times ? was it about serious thing or not ??

Hello yazeid. I think I had lied to him but, it wasnt that serious. As much as possible I always wanted to be honest with him. No matter how hard it is to tell the truth. Honesty is always the best policy.

It's always a serious matter when one tells a lie. I feel that trust is important in any relationshiop even if it is or is not BF/GF. If I found out someone lied to me, then I never know whether I can trust them again even if it seemed to be an insignificant thing that they lied about. Have i ever lied... sure.. but now I tell the truth even if it hurts bc it hurts me more to know someone cannot be honest with me about something.

hello macdingolinger
I beleive that what yousay is true , but maybe you are mature enough to do so , we still young sometimes we think about the situation from another point of view .
I Hope that one day i will be able not to tell lies whatever was the situation

It would be impossible to be always telling the truth about everything. There are some things which need to be kept hidden or secret and some kind of white lie is needed in order for the secret to be kept. Cheers!!

For me telling a lie is something serious. I admit there are times that I need to tell a lie to my hubby because he is a hard headed person and he doesn't want to understand whatever I am saying. And I am very sad about that. But in a relationship both should be honest and open to each other. Lying is next to cheating so be aware of that.

I am not saying lying is the correct thing but I have lied before to my partner. I originally has a lot of male friends before I met him. When we moved to Miami I had no friends and the people I would meet would be guys. I understand that he would be jealous but it wasn't like I was cheating. So if they called or texted me I had to say it was a girlfriend.

Yes sometimes if it really needed in the situation.
If it can harm him I will tell the truth.
Its better to have it hide rather than tell it that
can make him angry and jealous. I know what kind of
things that can irritate to him so I better lie to it
than tell. I dont want to have quarrel iin our relationship
so I will be careful to it. That is what you called white
lies can make it a good sense to anyone if used properly.

yes i tried to lie with my partner before because if ill him the truth im pretty sure that he will not understand it nor accepts my reasons why i did it. and of course it only cause trouble in our relationship if i do so, so sometimes i have to kept some white lies inside me. just for the good and to keep the relationship,

I have never! And would never! It is true that sometimes people tend to "keep things" from ther other person because, I don't know, maybe he/she thinks it's not his/her "business." But the truth is, that is considered lying as well, because at the end, you're not telling the truth. Point being, you shouldn't "keep" things away from someone, it just makes him/her lose trust in you.

Hello Elie , you might be right about the trust thing , people tend to rust those who are honest with them more , even if they were telling the truth regarding something bad , but sometimes I'd like to hide the thing that would make me partner upset and annoys her , but If she asked me about it I will tell the truth , if she didn't I wont open that topic with her .
have a good time Elie
