What lies or embellishments did you tell when dating?

[Anonymous]

I am not good enough at keeping a secret to embellish or lie to DH. He would have caught me out.

But I do have a few friends who talk about how they can't wait to get married so they can stop giving BJs.

And then they wind up with devastated husbands like me who never get them anymore. Not talking about her going at it for 20 minutes and then swallowing or cumming on her face, but at least a few minutes during foreplay for the physical and psychological effect of looking at her eyes while she is doing it. I am the total guy-next-door neighbor type, but I have seriously considered hiring a call girl just to get a BJ and not live knowing that she only did something to impress me while dating but couldn't give a crap about my needs today.

Men have needs? Who knew?

That's right. I am a partner who is very aware of what she needs in bed and generally tries to accommodate her desires to explore, try new things, and be satisfied. Shouldn't I be treated the same way?

Yes, and I would divorce the Princess who pulled this "bait and switch" on me.

DH pretended he was a runner when he found out I run marathons. He has never run more than a mile.

I pretended I was into "cool" bands I'd never really heard of and live music at the 930 club/dive bars. my favorite band at the time was actually counting crows.

We tease each other about it all the time.

And I hate biking.

And running.

And pretty much anything that requires physical activity.

Siiigh.

WTF? Is he unhappy now that you won't do those things with him? Why try to make it work with someone who wants things you don't want?

You're both fucking idiots, then. You'd divorce someone for not giving a blowjob?
And what about her needs? If she has told you that she doesn't like it or simply changed her mind she must go on with it b/c you can't live with regular sex?

If you have an otherwise good marriage and partnership and this is truly just about not getting a BJ then, yes, you're an idiot.

I told him I loved to hunt and fish. Lol! I also said I loved to camp and I enjoyed watching the Dukes of Hazzard. I do enjoy the outdoors, but I don't like the hunting stuff.

Maybe try sex with a man. You will probably play for the other team and never come back. Just sayin'.

Seriously, folks. What's the point of telling such lies?

Didn't you think it would not work out when they finally found out?
