You are free to turn my question around and ask the same for a wife. Actually, the issue I want to raise and share with you all is simple. Why is there so much of dishonesty in the most intimate of relationships on this earth, and isn't it rampant enough across geographical and cultural differences ?

Everyone lies at some point in their relationships. It's just part of human nature. Sometimes we lie to protect the feelings of someone we love. Everyone does it, whether they admit to it or not. The key though is to be as honest as possible, especially with the things that matter most in your relationship.

To tell one has never lied would be the biggest lie.

Both Man and Woman are not Gods or Angels but are humans and if so both definitly have lied to each other at some point or the other either to not creat a problem or to not hurt.

As long as a lie is towards the benifit of Husband Wife Relation its good else .......

I think it is safe to say that 100% among the married couples lie to each other. The lies can be big or small. Sometimes lies are told in order to please the spouse. For eg, if a wife has gained on wt and is asking the husband if he could see she has grown fatter. Most husbands would say 'Nay, nay, you look just great!'. This is also a kind of lie, not a bad one tho'. Can make the wife happy then leave the husband alone. No harm done.

After all, we are all human being. So therefore we are not perfect. We do make mistake and learn from our mistake. We might lied to the other, once a while. It depends on what, why,when and how far we lied...For little things, then it 's okay to get away with it sometimes. But when you take it to far then it is become a problem to you and effect to the people you love the most, too. So , sometimes the lie is hurt, but try to be honest about it. Because it always the best policy.

hai dear,

see everyone tells lies but lies also fall in different catagories.
There are some lies that should remain a lie and will do good.
but some lies should be out before it makes situation worse.
No one is willing to lie unless some circumstances come up.
But some really rely on lies which is never good for such healthy relationships ,,,,,,

i will explain..................

see lies start when we realise that we have made a mistake.
Maybe it is quite common girls and boys being in love nowadays.....
see if a girl happens to love a boy whom she thinks is a good person to be with and trust him whole heartly but the boy turns to be a rascal then the girls comes to realise it late in her life and gets married to a new person who sincerely loves her.
but it is good that the girl lies her hubby since no matter how good he is and can understand the situation there will be a small doubt in his mind which he will not show now but later when you have problems .
since the girl has realised her mistake and that is no longer a sin as long as she doesnt repeat .hence the relationship will go well. By not telling the past is good in such cases.


but if a husband or wife still continues such relations and then pretend to love each other behind each other back loving someone else and making lies is a very dangerous game.its not a strong relation and there is no love but for some sake just going on .

but all other lies should not exist for long like you have borrowed or given money or you have girl who is around you and you are not interested at all it is better to tell it off because she / he may doubt you in future if they come to know and will accuse you for not telling and the trust is gone

so better late than never and fall in trouble

basically past should be buried but all other things should be said and trusted by each other . if she / he comes to tell you the truth never accuse them or punish them because they tell you the truth because they love you and wants to repent

if you punish and accuse them then they are forced to lie each other so as to keep peace and this will not be a strong intimate relation.
they should have the mind to forgive and forget so that each other doesnt lie or depend on lies..

once a truth is said then never drag this matter in future but finish and close the chapter there itself........

so if you follow these principles then you will never have to lie in the earth.

If there is any lie that is innocuous and told to stave off an embarrassing situation, it should not be looked upon as a blunder or act of infidelity.
We improve upon our follies and this is a part of life.
If on the other hand, some body lies to his wife which amounts to an act of infidelity or theft or moral turpitude, then it is a serious matter.
If you lie to save some body's life, it is better that telling the harsh truth.

I don't know if there is any man or woman who hasn't lied to his/her spouse. Chances of finding such people are very rare though. Sometimes it becomes imperative for us to lie to the one we love. If a wife asks her husband whether he is dreaming about a certain gorgeous woman, saying "yes" when he is indeed doing so wouldn't do either any good. Saying "no" would. These are harmless lies and love isn't compromised in such instances.

TAny body should never lie. We forget the lies but we never forget the truth. If I have done something wrong & it is first time what kind of relation do I have with her that I can not speak a small wrong in front of her? & have fear that she will not forgive me?
There are lots of people who do not lie & lead the life of peace & harmony. tell a single lie & heart beat increases so why not to face the truth. No body will hang me on cross.

I've never lied to my wife on anything. I've not done anything in my entire life which should be hidden from her. I've never troubled her. I've never imposed any work beyond her capacity. I've clearly told her that if u do not do some work at home as per her free will without any reason I'll not complain. I do not complain. I don't keep any personal grudge against anybody. I try my level best to keep my life straightforward in all respects.

It depends on what kind of a lie a wife or a husband would tell. There those small lies you can lie to your partner so as not to stress them or alarm them, Like feeling sick, at first you can lie thinking that the sickness will go un-noticed.
