Men. Why Do You Habitually Lie?

Luton

I'm a relatively relaxed person when it comes to life. I don't demand sexual partners only sleep with me. I simply demand that my sexual partners be honest and open with me. (a) so I can protect myself from nasty diseases, and (b) because without trust, how can sex be truly intimate? Without trust, sex is reduced to nothing but a fancy wank... and I can do that on my own.

So after a week in which I discover two men have blatantly lied to me in the hope of getting sex, and as a result ruined their chances and seriously fucked me off in the process, I have to ask...

Men. Why do you habitually lie?

We thrive upon deceit, we maintain subterfuge without compunction and suffuse our miserable lives with a veneer of half-truths and fibs.

We are a wretched folk, brimming with intoxicating testosterone which leaves us incapable of any form of coherent truth and valour.

Don't trust us.

Just make love to us.

People can't demand honesty but if others choose to lie, whatever the reason, its on them. We also can't get mad at others not abiding by our morals/standards. One persons little white lie is another's world of deceit so if you don't trust someone, just walk away.

I disagree. I can demand honesty from my playmates as a condition of not walking away.

I need honesty for intimacy. Without honesty there is no trust. Without trust there can be no intimacy.

.

If someone lies to you and you're unhappy about it?

That's absolutely fine. You don't have to be happy about it. You don't have to be happy about it if it could potentially affect your sexual health. You don't have to be happy about it if you choose not to be.

You can ask people to be honest. Hope they're honest with you. If they're not? Great, you're not compatible and that's that easily sorted.

Tbh, I have been on the receiving end of this from a lady. She said she was all in, but constantly got calls and messages from other men. Or was too tired to see me, but posted on social about being in pubs etc.

It changed me in a way, now I don't worry about what the other person is up to. Sadly I don't care anymore, zero faith, so zero worry.

As you said just be honest, so you can protect yourself.

Hope you are OK OP?

I often ask myself. Over the years some men got jealous when I had meets and said that they didn't want to meet others, I obviously never expected, let alone demanded, to be exclusive. They were lying anyway and naively thought I wouldn't find out? I don't get it. What's the point of lying?

I value honesty op like you and it's not very common on here. Men think they have to come up with all sorts of crap to get sex. Xx

Hmmm not sure why you’d solely direct and proclaim all men are habitual liars? Bit offensive to be fair as it’s definitely not a gender specific issue. Believe me I dated a woman for 13 years who was a habitual liar. Personally I think little liaison hit the nail on the head and maybe your very honest and genuine person but for me, from my experience. People that are overly demanding of something from others, who set very high, near unachievable moral standards on partners don’t reciprocate and follow or abide by their own proclaimed moral standards let alone attempt to live up to their partners moral views tbf. That I sadly have seen a heck of a lot sadly from other people. Either way though, you shouldn’t call a whole demographic that you don’t know, baseless things like being habitual liars?

in all honesty its a bit of a sweeping statement calling all men liars ,ive found some women are just as bad if not worse .separate note ;unless in a committed relationship or heading there , i dont believe anyone has the right to know how many sexual partners someone has , you can however ask they play safe if its a case of your meeting regularly, but ultimately your sexual health is down to you too assure by taking the necessary steps x

I hate being lied to, I feel it insults my intelligence and I can generally suss it out. I'm not sure if I'm lied to on here but certainly in my life away from fab I am by other people, companies. Just be honest, I can take it, I can then make an informed decision.

Men lie to actually not hurt the female they care about sometimes too and I'm not on about with myself because some men are a billion percent straight and wouldn't go with me anyway but I've got straight mates I've kept secrets for or been they're alibi when they have neen going with other females because I know if I didn't it would ruin them men think with they're cocks and often they can't help but cheat that is the truth honestly !

Not all men are good with they're emotions too and they can't handle or don't know what to do and basically shit themselves when a woman is having a complete emotional meltdown so that's why they lie about small stupid things sometimes too worried of they're woman's reaction

I think it's too sweeping to say all men or all women. Having recently been on the end of big lies that broke a relationship & people saying 1 thing then behaving differently... I'd say everyone has good & bad in them, can be the dream date if they are into someone or ugliest ahole if they arent really. Sometimes they lie to themselves too about wanting something (like the idea not the reality, or like part not all) & then it projects sincerely but isn't the reality.

I agree with you on honesty breeding trust, but if they show you that they will say 1 thing, then do something else, it seems they aren't considerate or respectful of your needs. Then you can accept it or leave. Perhaps the first time is a mistake but if it happens again, that's on you. All you can do is be honest & upfront about what your needs are, leave when not met.

The answer is simple and logical.

Life as a man is all too easy. It’s like we’ve gamed the system at birth. We don’t have to deal with periods or child birth.

We get sex on demand, whenever, wherever and however we want it.

We don’t have to spend a large percentage of our life applying or removing makeup.

We have far more money as over the years we pay a tenth of the price or less on haircuts over AN ENTIRE lifetime. Some selfish men (like myself) shave their hair themselves and add on extra profit.

For this reason, we have off shore high interest tax free bank accounts which attract more wealth and status.

We tend to be carrying more height and muscular mass on average and so we can typically eat a little bit more calories and indulge in more food without it causing unwanted weight gain.

Life is like a dreamy walk in the park for men…

But secretly we HATE IT!

The biggest lie men have kept up for centuries is that life is not like the above in any way, we pulled the biggest marketing PR stunt of the millennia and made it seem publicly like being a man is actually pretty shitty sometimes…

And so, to prop up this sneaky mistruth and add some validity we throw in daily, multiple times a day, little webs of deceit so nobody can follow the trail or figure out if they’re coming or going… like the web of bank accounts that lead ultimately to the offshore tax haven in the Caymen Islands no women will ever know about …

Then we found we loved the thrill of the deceit. The adrenaline pumping moments of hiding the truth in plain sight, like a magnificent performance by the honerable Meth Chef Sir Walter White.

After a lifetime of this, it just becomes second nature…

For example, I didn’t write this post, and even if I did I never hit the Post Message button. Somebody else hacked my account and posted this bullshit, honestly, you can ask my mate, he was with me the whole time. We were watching 5 Minute Hobby Hacks on YouTube as we intended to knit our grandmas an Easter bunny today.

This is the real reason all men lie but will never tell you… honestly, I’m not lieing

Aside from the tongue in cheek & it not being all men, some of this is an interesting take on things.

Expanding on that - Having some things easier & an outer life of entitlement, so much so it's hard to see it for what it is, but other hand lacking emotional resilient, emotional support & expression, not developing self reflection/ regulation, so feeling unfulfilled & then acting inconsistently to chase the thrill of something instead of having a purpose or intentional fulfilment.. really interesting.

Glad you spotted in the above there’s truth between the lies if you can read past the inherent sarcasm. Whichever way you look at it, slice and dice it, men and women are not physically, hormonally, or by nature of societal norms/expectations etc - the same.

These intriguing psychological landscapes, stimulus and experiences produce relatively predictable to some degree variations in habitual character traits.

Leaving morality and ethics aside - therein lies the reason and logically the answer to the OPs question.

But indeed the subject is fascinating.

People lie because 9/10 people who ask for the truth don’t actually want to hear it.

They want to hear the answer that complies with the ideal they’ve built in their head, and don’t like it when the two don’t match.

Often, and l I’ll get banned from the site here I’m sure…

Men lie spontaneously and are pretty dumb liars (and I did say often and not exclusively to which the following also applies) and that women are often more calculated and thoughtful in their strategic lies.

Again, I’m generalising, but (I have no data to cite this and it’s my personal belief and observation) this is due to societal, hormonal and physical differences between the two sexes.

On the same topic.

Are you classing manipulation = lieing

Or is a lie not the same as manipulation.

OP I get what you’re saying. It’s taken me years to realise not everyone is as honest as I am.

Here’s my advice;

Get in tune with your instincts

Never rush anything

Sit on a proposal overnight- how does it feel in cold light of day? What does your instinct tell you- trust that.

Believe what they tell you- which means really hearing their words. Clues are usually dropped to who they really are but when you’re into someone you don’t want to hear them.

Believe their actions more than their words.

I have a friend that a pathological liar.

He has delusions of grandeur, so often embellishes things. Also he'll make stuff up when there's not even a need to.. He'll say "my car's at the garage.." when it's not at the garage etc.

I don't see him that often, but he has good traits too.

I wouldn’t say it was just men but I guess on here, you’ll be speaking to more men than women so the likelihood is that’s why you come to that conclusion.

Purely based on FAB interactions, men lie to get sex. Think with the little brain first.

The worst lies for me, is pretending you are single when you aren’t, which seems to be a common thing on here.

If you have to start your interactions with lies then it’s not a good basis for building the right connection.

People lie to save face, to avoid hurting other people’s feelings, to impress others, to shirk responsibility, to hide misdeeds, as a social lubricant, to prevent conflict, to get out of work, and many more reasons.

Lies

Honesty

Trust..suck

From both sexes

Women are just as sick at lying ...

Married..

Single

Together all lie

Never take anything here as GOSPEL

Pinch of salt me.

Respect each other would be a start at times.

I hide my profile due to a week of liars and cheetahs

"I know how you feel OP. Being lied to feels awful and it's even worse when you know they're lying and they just carry on doing it "

Do you call them out or just let them hang theirselves?

I’m the later. Let them dig their hole, the truth will always come out. It doesn’t matter how long.

"People lie, it isnt just men.

But men often lie to get what they want.

Women lie to get what they want all the time specifically to men. Also absolute experts at manipulating and shaming/ guilt tripping.

It's their superpower"

I was recently showing a friend some clips of the late Roy Masters (The Foundation for Human Understanding). He maintained that women 'Make you king with your thing'.

That generally involves a fair amount of lying from both sides!

The worst lies for me, is pretending you are single when you aren’t, which seems to be a common thing on here.

If you have to start your interactions with lies then it’s not a good basis for building the right connection.

K"

The difficulty is that being single comes in so many flavours.

Technically being single is the opposite of being married. However, reality is somewhat different. There are many grades of involvement and loyalty in between.

Most people who get involved with repeat dating do so because a bond develops and that is when the trouble starts, especially when the supply of pleasure is under threat.

I once had a female teaching colleague who liked to say "I've had to work very hard at staying single". At the time she ways getting serious grief from her principal lover which rather took the edge of her singleness!

Very few people are totally free unless there is some other drawback.

Seems a bit unfair.

I don't lie. Not for my own benefit, not to protect people's feelings, I'm as honest as I can be.

I'm guessing that's partly why I haven't had sex since January, I'm not prepared to lie and manipulate to get people into bed.

"Everyone lies women are the worst for 2timing never honest yet I've been put under "all men lie to get what they want, nobody came to ask me anything how have you to come to this conclusion.

We have never spoke!!

this is as much a sweeping statement as the op's , I dont cheat and im a woman , i think there needs to be a little less judgement as to what specific genders do and dont do ."

Finally someone talking sense

Lying has become endemic in the West, we all lie these days when it is so much more simple to tell the truth and live free.

As you know, with just cursory inspection, that the vast majority of our politicians lie. They lie because they have to tow the line laid out by the media, the media lie because whoever owns them has an agenda that is not popular. In the military or corporations a person cannot advance unless they have "compatible" philosophies so they hide their true thoughts.

Men lie because they "think" that women want "something" in a man before they sleep with them, women lie because they want to be with the "premium" man, and so it goes on....

It is very hard to have a "truthful" even if naughty mind these days.... Ah well...

I hate how these questions all ways start by blaming one gender why do men …. Why do women …..

All genders lie from the little white lies to make a story more interesting upto the plain wrong deceitful lies that ruin someone’s life , we are all human you lie I lie we all lie

Anyone who says I never lie I instantly don’t trust as that’s the biggest lie of all

Doh, try again.

Both men and women are capable of being deceitful op and some couples lie on here also ie not telling a meet they're married to others who don't know about fab.

It's all about making themselves look more appealing and bending the truth, to get into chat with those who wouldn't if they'd known the truth.

If I'm in the least bit suspicious of someone, I just stop contact with them,but to some it just comes naturally to lie.

Could well be a selection bias.

Everyone lies. Humans are weird.

In these cases I would imagine the answer lies somewhere in their values. Dodgy formative experiences in life. They don’t place enough moral value on not harming others vs their own gain.

They’re like that because it’s how they’ve been taught to be. People are products of their environments.

"People can't demand honesty but if others choose to lie, whatever the reason, its on them. We also can't get mad at others not abiding by our morals/standards. One persons little white lie is another's world of deceit so if you don't trust someone, just walk away.

I disagree. I can demand honesty from my playmates as a condition of not walking away.

I need honesty for intimacy. Without honesty there is no trust. Without trust there can be no intimacy."

Agree.

My rule number 1 is total honesty. You lie to me and you are on my block list.

You cant have a proper D/s meet without trust in the same way you cant have longer term meets without it either.

"Everyone lies daily. It’s a natural part of human communication. That’s why we have to be cautious and build trust.

It’s not a “men” thing

We're straying into philosophical argument here and the Creta Liar's Paradox. If all people are lairs the OP is lying and no men are lying to her."

Well, how does OP know that men are “habitual liars” ? Seems a strange conclusion to jump to based off of two people that they don’t even know
