[quote=Anonymous]I lied to my now wife when we were dating and even engaged about having a college degree.  There is no good reason, I just have naturally low self-esteem and worried it would have caused her to have no interest from the start.

I was eventually called out, which was obviously bound to happen at some point.

I mean really?  Looking back on it how F'ed and low do you have to feel about yourself?  Not to mention the ultimate damage you can do to the other person.  Reality is I sold myself short, as I should have been looking for that person that was ok with me and who I was and where I came from.  Plenty of people are successful in life without a degree.

I just was not confident enough, and truth be told she was the first person I had ever even lied to in such a way.  Wasn't worth it for either of us.  I lost more than I gained in the long run, as she was a great person when I met her and probably would have given me a chance anyway.

Now regarding the OP?  I still don't understand.  Are you worried about him lying to you about this?  Or just the prospective employer?  I would confront him before doing any behind the back searches.[/quote]
