lie detector?

Question

If your spouse asked u to take a lie detector test
Would u. If not they say they want a divorce.

Answer 1

There is already something fundamentally wrong with a relationship where one partner is demanding a lie detector test and immediately threatening divorce for not complying. I would counter by suggesting counseling, or at the very least, a good heart-to-heart calm discussion on what the real issue is. Good luck.

Answer 2

If I really loved my spouse and didn't do anything wrong, then YES I would take a lie detector test. If you don't take the lie detector test, then that right there is an admission of guilt.
If you have nothing to worry about, and you are faithful and honest to your spouse then take it,so it will ease their mind.
Otherwise, chances are you will still be looking at a divorce.
REMEMBER: Honesty is the best policy.Always has been and always will be.

Answer 3

Lie detector tests aren't always accurate. If you"re nervous or uptight about anything you will fail a lie detector test. As far as my spouse goes if he / she distrusts me so much that he / she demands that I take this test I don't think that there is much a marriage left anyway. I'd tell him / her that he / she could have the divorce as long as they paid for it and don't forget, 50% of our belongings will be coming my way.

Answer 4

No I wouldn't. An ultimatum of a lie detector test says there is no trust. However, to get to this point you must have done something really interesting! I DO have things that I want to keep buried. Not things that are like "OH MY GOD!" But things I'm not proud of, lessons I've learned that would just be poison to my self esteem to bring up and rub salt in. No, I guess that I'm not the person I want to be yet. Someday I may mature enough to be brutally honest, but not today, uh uh nope.

Answer 5

Lie detectors, in cases of infidelity, cannot be considered accurate in my opinion. I have studied polygraphs for years and after having owned three, two analog and one computer poly system, I can tell you now that they are NOT accurate.

I was tested myself and when I answered truthfully it said I was lying through my teeth. And, once, I was tested and was lying and I received a passing mark from the examiner.

Bottom line, the results are nothing more than the opinion of the examiner. If you research this perspective, you will find that I am telling you the truth.

You can buy anything on Ebay. Check them out on there if you want to buy one (for not much more than the cost of the tests.)

Answer 6

I have my answer for you and then a question. If thats what your spouse wants, then say i'll do it if you do it and all questions are fair game. Unless you're really guilty of whatever, then i agree with whoever said refuse the test and fess up. My question for you is this: How does one go about taking a lie detector test? What do you do, just go to your local police dpt and ask for one? Just curious.

Answer 7

I would. I have absolutely nothing to hide. But keep in mind that a lie detector test isn't 100% accurate.

Answer 8

It's probly better if you just come clean & try to work out your problems without divorce/lie detector test.

Answer 9

If I had nothing to hide, i'd see no reason not too. If I did have something to hide id just tell the truth right then.

However, unless youve done something that really warrants suspicious, i'd look very hard into myself and my marriage to see whether or not I should stay with my spouse- are they controlling or get jealous easy etc etc?

I wouldn't stay with someone that didn't trust me - however, I don't do suspicious things either, so I guess it depends on the situation.

Answer 10

If i had nothing to hide hell ya and then rub it in their face and say u didnt trust me enough to believe me and make them feel guilty as hell but if i had something to hide hell no
