I met an awesome lady at school. She is pretty, in shape, and smart (but not overly intellectual). We have gone out six times since the start of the semester. She, like most decent people, does not have a problem with me missing my non-dominant hand.
A few days ago I realized that she thinks that I am a Business school student when in fact, I am enrolled at the College as a freshmen.
I am the age of a typical B school student, live off campus a few blocks from the University on 94th Street, and my work history would lead one to believe I am a B school student (former management consultant).
Mind you that I have never told her I am not a a graduate student, but she just assumed it, inter alia, since I study in the B school library sometimes and because of my age.
I am wondering if I should bother telling her.
This is not exactly she thinks she is dating the manager when in fact she is dating the janitor territory but still...

Yes. You should tell her. Doesn't need to be a big deal. Next time it comes up, just make a quick note "I'm actually..." and move on.
But, based on your post, she might be - since you actually had to ASK about clearing this up. Is honesty just something for when you're likely to get caught in your book?
Based on thread title: How can deception flourish but not lying? Inherent contradiction right there.
Deception flourishes into more lies, and more lies build upon more deception and more lying.
If you can own up and be honest with her, maybe she'd give you a second chance considering she may feel that you felt you weren't good enough had you not mentioned that you were a freshman.
Either way, before you even do that, I'd question if I have to lie to someone to impress them, are they really worth my time?
i took that to mean that he is annoyed by the pseudo-intellectual types. if things get more serious of course you should eventually tell her. i would understand waiting a few more dates, though.

Why wait? Why not clear up the understanding immediately? Why deceive her? And then you men wonder why women don't trust you? Surely you can't be that stupid?
