So? You weren't exclusive and you knew she was seeing other people. Since she was seeing other people (even just first dates) she obviously wasn't that into you.
Seems pretty clear to me.
you're free to think lying is ok. she was very into me. we weren't a good match for long term. i broke it off with her, because it wasn't worth my time dating someone who tried to fool me.
I would consider it a lie and dump her if she hadn't dumped me first. You and she have incompatible ethics. Hers would work ok for some people, but not for you. Or me.
that's what i did. same day as she spoke of the plans for the friend to visit again, i told her we are done.

How is it lying? You weren't exclusive and since she was dating other people she OBVIOUSLY wasn't that into you, or else she would be with just you and not be dating other randoms. When I started seeing my guy I deleted my account and ceased contact with the other 2 guys I was chatting with because I was only interested in him.
You weren't together so she had no obligation to you. Now, if you had said you were exclusively dating that would be different.
I agree, but that wasn't my question. It was IF you aren't exclusive, should someone also be free to deceive the other person about the rest of their dating life.
Its not deceiving, its just dating. Unless its been agree upon to date exclusively, theres nothing wrong, and probably a lot right, with dating a lot of people. Its the only way you find someone you want to date exclusively.

But that doesn't change that the right thing to have done was tell the poor guy b4 hand that she may get serious with someone else and give op a chance to make a choice if that is what he wantted in his life. Obviously after the fact he found out and ended it. If he had wantted that in his life or was ok with it, we wouldn't be having this discussion.

The lie was that the guy was a friend visiting. The guy was NOT a friend. The guy was a romantic interest. It was a false statement meant to deceive. That is by definition a lie. Don't ask me how it was a lie again, because I can't help you anymore than this. Get a dictionary if you need one.

Sounds like you thought the 'relationship' was more serious than it was.
I don't see how it was a lie. A romantic interest can still be a friend, especially if it hadn't progressed to romance yet. Like I said, she wasn't that into you if she was still seeing other people. That's the important part.
Sounds like you're bitter that she didn't pick you.
