Do men and women lie about the same things? NO

Men lie about their accomplishments, their net worth and their future prospects. Women lie about their age, their desires and their past relationships. The reason being is that men believe themselves to be more appealing than they often are, and women believe themselves to be less so. This isn’t an attempt to be unkind to either gender, it is simply a fact that has been duplicated time and again. Men are more optimistic about their personal attractiveness and women are more pessimistic. Much of this is largely due to societies’ high visual expectations of women, and its bestowal of virtues and power on men.

Men and women lie to divert a conflict. It’s just easier than pushing buttons and telling the truth.

Men do not consider it lying if they omit important information. Among men a lie means deliberately saying something that is untrue. This creates untold difficulties among couples, because women experience an omission as a deliberate attempt to mislead, and therefore as a lie.

If a man feels that he’s going to be judged for staying after work to have a drink with the guys, he may just tell his wife he’s working late. If a woman feels she’s going to make her man feel bad due to his subpar performance in bed, she may tell him he was amazing. These are run-of-the-mill white lies which protect people’s feelings, but never get to the heart of the problem: he wants to have a life beyond his girlfriend/wife, she wants to be satisfied sexually.

As much as we would all LOVE TO BELIEVE that all men only want US — that is a FAIRY TALE just like CINDERELLA. You have to go into a marriage knowing that. The more money, accomplishments, travel and freedom a man has the more he will “sample” other kinds of women.

If you like variety yourself, you won’t have a problem with that. Personally, I think it makes a marriage stronger because if you act helpless and desperate everytime your man notices some other hot chick, you are only digging a hole for yourself. You can’t be everything to everyone all of the time. However, if you always have an exciting array of admirers who intimidate him and who he knows are ready to drop everything for you he will drive himself crazy just keeping tabs on you. I love men just as much as men love women and don’t think I don’t let them know it. If more women had this “ATTITUDE” men would be too exhausted to run around all the time bc they would be too worried about their “PROPERTY” being “VIOLATED”
Two can play at that game
FYI My car broke down more than 20 times before anyone realized that I didn’t even have a car- who needs one when you live in New York City?
