The 5 Most Common Lies Men Tell Women

It's true!... Men have a much more "liberal" relationship with the truth than women. Research has repeatedly shown than men use lies as tools to avoid negative consequences. They often lack the empathy to realize or even care about the emotional damage they cause to women by lying. Here are 5 of the most common fibs, lies and whoppers:

1. "I'll call you"
Men say this to women in several situations:
 - At the end of a first date with a woman he is not interested in and does not intend to call. He sees it as another way of saying, "nice to meet you, goodbye". Many men are outraged at the notion that this is even considered a lie.
 - After having sex with a woman, men say this in order to gain a quick exit, avoid conflict and still have the option of calling her if he wants to have sex with her some other time.

2. "I love you"
Men know that women need to feel emotionally connected to men before letting them in their bedrooms. These three words, while considered sacred to most women, act like a magic passkey for men. They often compound the lie by saying they have never said those words to another woman before. But one survey found that over 70% of college-aged men admitted to lying to exaggerate their feelings about a woman in order to have sex with her. And 97% of the women in the survey said they had been lied to in this manner.

3. "I can't stay the night. I have a big meeting in the morning"
Men lie to get you OUT of bed almost as often as they do to get you into bed. Many men confess that they begin planning their exit as quickly as they know they have a greenlight for sex. If they need to lie, they see it as a "necessary use of words". Nothing personal.

5. "I've never had an STD"
Men know that women will NOT want to sleep with a man that has tested positive for an STD. Some will even compound the lie by saying they have, in fact, been tested but will make up assorted excuses for not showing the results. To make matters even worse, they will often tell a woman that they are willing to wear a condom, but wait until the "point of no return" to suddenly say, "oops, I don't have anymore condoms" or "I really hate those things and I swear I'm clean".

4. "I'm not seeing anyone else"
Men lie about having sex, or attempting to have sex, with other women in order to avoid the negative consequences of the infidelity. This one pretty much speaks for itself.

The SOLUTION:There is one very easy thing you can do that will eliminate many of the motivations men have to lie to you.

1. Don't have premarital sex.
I know it sounds shocking in this day and age, but there is a reason why every major religion has a strict code of abstinence outside of marriage. Without it, society disintegrates. Men will cheat and lie to have sex outside of marriage. And women, being naive, hopeful and unsuspecting, will believe the lies. Remove the motive upfront. As your reward, you will find an honest, patient guy with character who wants to know YOU, not just your body, and is willing to prove his commitment to you the old-fashioned way. 

2. Don't get engaged without an STD test.
In fact, you should insist on it early in the relationship, before getting too emotionally attached. You deserve to know what health risks are involved when and if you decide to marry him. The consequences can be lifelong and devastating. This will weed out the boys from the men, the players from the stayers, and the liars from the good guys. But DON'T use clean test results as an excuse to start having sex. See point #1 above.

3. Be willing to walk away from a liar.
Don't be afraid of asking questions and verifying the answers. Men are used to being in control and getting away with their lies. You MUST not be afraid of losing him. Do you want to be lied to for the rest of your life? No! So, find out who he really is before YOU commit.
