I lied to women that were interested in me that I wasn't really interested when I was. I did it to hook up some of my friends and guess what? They have been happily married for years. I guess that would be a good lie for a true friend even though I missed out!

My friend met a guy on Match and dated him for a brief period of time, he told her he refused to go for an STD test because he was married for a long time and she never was, therefore he should be the one worried. She let it go.

Shortly after (few months) she called me crying, he gave her herpes- and then fessed up to it after the fact.

Nice guy !

It's mean. Anybody who does that... deserves to have their heart ripped out and stepped on whenever they happen to actually fall in love, themselves.

I called them "smooth moves" rather than lies, but I told some good ones back in H.S. and college. One of my favorites was freshman year in college when I asked a pre med classmate if she would take a look at a "lump" that I discovered while taking a shower. It didn't work out quite as I planned, but we did eventually end up dating. I have also told some not-so-PG-13 lies about a made up sexual "problem" that several young women volunteered to attempt to cure. When I was an athlete and in fantastic shape in college I also occasionally faked (maybe exaggerated is a better term) sports injuries as an excuse to take off my shirt for a back rub, but I don't think I was really fooling anyone.

More recently I have lied and told women that I haven't ever been to a certain event or restaurant when they took me there because I could tell that it would disappoint them if I had already experienced it many times before. I put these into the white lie category, though.

I'm surprised he can get laid using that lame lie, Lol. Although, I question the woman falling for it

I find it amazing that women are condemning men for lying. Maybe we should have a thread with this topic. What lies have you told a guy as an excuse to not go out on a date? Washing hair was very popular on Sat. night for some reason when I was young. Or maybe what lie you told when you were not in the mood for sex with your husband/partner, bf, SO?

Wow, can't even remember. Whenever I was interested in nothing but hit and run, I told women what they wanted to hear. I was young, with little money, life experience or general knowledge of grown-up world. Let's face it - no one wants to hear about your day at the office. If you have decent looks, decent car and a decent job, you are STILL an ordinary person, even though you think you are a unique snowflake. If you want something quick, you have to impress just as fast. And that's difficult to do within 2-3 hours before last call when you are a regular person. Did I feel bad? No. It's a bar scene, everyone knows the game. And if any woman/man thinks they will meet their Most Interesting (Wo)Man in the world at a b ar on a Friday night, well... they should be grateful for lessons in reality.

Every application of makeup, every pair of high heels, every padded bra is a lie told to one or more men.

What difference does it make that he was married for a long time, once he was single again? For that matter, he could have cheated while married (who knows, maybe giving his wife herpes was the cause of divorce), or picked up an STD even before marriage. Your friend shouldn't have fallen for that line.
