Top 8 Lies Men Tell Their Wife/Girlfriend

Brandi Thornsberry
Men are some of the best liers in the world. We have all herd a few lies in our lifetime and I am sure we will here a lot more before we are through. Ever wonder what the top lies are that men tell. Here you go.

Lie #1- Yes that outfit looks great

There are many reasons why a man would say this. The main one is to keep them selves out of trouble. Let's face it, if they tell you that it looks horrible, then what is going to happen. You cant really blame a guy for lying about this one. You should also know that you can not trust his judgement on your clothes.

Lie #2- Your defentally better then my last girlfriend/wife

Again lets look at the other side of this lie. If he was to tell you that his last girlfriend was better then you, how would that make you feel and what would that do for him. He would have to think about what he has done for god knows how many nights on the couch. These types of questions should not be asked, because you will probably get a lie out of him. You could actually be a lot better then his last girlfriend, but that is something that you will never really know the truth about.

Lie #3- I can fix it

Men like to think they can fix everything. If they cant fix it then they usually say it can not be fixed. Chances are it can be fixed and he just has no clue, but he would not openly admit this to you. Its an ego thing with men.

Lie #4- I was not looking at her boobs

Ya he probably was looking at her boobs instead of her face. Hello, hes a guy. This is what men do. I really think that men can not help this one. But chances are if he told you the truth then he is going to never hear the end of it. So he takes the easy way out and lies. Women you can either ignore the fact that hes a guy or you will be fighting with him for the rest of your life.

Lie #5- Nothings wrong

Women and men are completely different when it comes to whats bothering them. Men like to look strong in front of their women. Again its something to do with their egos. If he says Nothings wrong but you know hes lying just leave it alone. Men like to deal with their problems alone unlike women who have 10 girlfriends over for cake and coffee so they can all sort out their problems.

Lie #6- I tried to call you

Men seem to forget a lot of things. If you ask me they have short term memory loss most of the time. More likely then none he did not try to call you and hes lying so he can cover up that he just flat out forgot to call you. This does not mean he don't care about you, it just means hes a man.

Lie #7- I'm the best and their is no other man as good as me

This lie is told for many reasons. If your man loves you then he is going to do anything in his power to keep you. So he tries to out do other men so that way he knows you will stay put. He wants to make sure you "think" he is the best so you will not look for someone better. Another reason for this lie is because he really thinks he is the best. Men are conceded and being better then every other man makes them shine.

Lie #8- I don't lie to you

I think I just proved with all my other reasons that he does lie to you. Everyone lies once in a while and you should not believe him when he tells you this. After all, he is a man.

    women are stupid for believing men's lies. IF women weren't so sensitive in the first place then men wouldn't need to lie. I have said many times before to a girl, that dress doesn't suit you and you're getting fat. Her reactions were either 1) extreme anger...You;re so insensitive and a jerk for saying that, or 2) denial..."it does suit me, you have no taste. Im not gettin fat. etc etc."

    Thats why guys lie and say she looks great because there is no point giving her an opinion if if she doesn't believe what I say.

    i like how women also just assume men are the bad guys and we do all this negative stuff. so a few guys do something wrong, tough shit, don't say all men do something when you apparently dont know many men.

    I find this article misleading.
    Sure, men lie. In fact all people lie, be it men or women. Some people lie a lot that it becomes a habit whilst some only lie a little. If you dont want to get stuck with a liar, then you should be smart and vigilant.
    I believe that there are still sincere people living in this world. There are still guys who are being honest when they say "You look beautiful in that outfit" and they're not afraid to say "That outfit doesnt really suit you".

    Women say men are sexist but after seeing this I think it's the other way around. And we don't lie about alot of the things stated in this article 2 or 3 maybe but that's about it.

    l dont know why men actually behave as if they owns the whole world.They lie a lot,.....and they would never admit it instead feel so cool that they are on top not knowing they are doing themselves.
    Anyway................. stay cool,ignore them and dont give yourself headache. Be happy and control anything that comes your way.
    Dont let any man make a fool of you,instead pretend as if you dont see them and face your life.Doing this,he might decide to change knowing well that he is hurting you.
