The Top 10 Lies Happy Husbands Tell
MSN/Redbook ^ | 01/04/06 | Keith Blanchard

Posted on 01/04/2006 2:56:33 PM PST by misterrob

You want to know the truth? Guys lie -- occasionally, compulsively, desperately. We certainly don't have a monopoly on lying, and I've seen women pull off some whoppers, but we men, over centuries of tinkering, have developed hardy, scrutiny-resistant strains. In the interests of furthering intergender understanding, I talked real guys into identifying, and explaining, their biggest lies.

"Sure, honey, that dress looks fine."
"I can fix it."
"I was not looking at her boobs."
"Nothing's wrong."
"I tried to call you."
"I don't want to have sex unless you want to."
"I'm the best, baby."
"My old girlfriend? She was just okay."
"I did not have sexual relations with that woman."
"I'll never lie to you."

"I used to think that women set men up to fail with their questions like, "What are you thinking about?" and "Do you think she's pretty?" and "Do I look fat in this dress?"

Strange, I've always assumed those questions were part of someones comedy routine....after all, who asks men for their opinions?

About very ten years I gather too much stuff, so I get married.

A waste of time. Just find a woman you hate, and buy her a house!

Yup! Whatcha' think them things cost????

We had a friend who saved up for breast implants. She was so proud of them that when we next saw her she had to tell us all about the procedure – and the cost!

Just remember:
If she's not happy you're not happy~

I thought it was:

She's not happy until you're not happy.

Lucky man. Are you an alien or something? Most women abhor sex(unless they want kids)

I don't think most women abhor sex. Maybe your buddies are just playing along with you so you don't feel bad? I will say that my (married) sex life has improved since I got my tubes tied. With birth control, women don't get that natural spike in interest.

When asked, "What are you thinking about?", my answer to her is always, "You in a red and black silk camisole, my dear."

What an outstanding answer! LOL I don't think I ever bothered asking my husband questions like this. He did insist upon shopping with me recently. I needed a suit for job interviews. I swore to try on anything he wished me to. He had no problem telling me, "You look like a linebacker, take that off!"

But that's why I adore him! I can trust him completely. I just don't ask questions that I'd really hate to hear the answers to.

"women can do without sex"

My wife is apparently different, but I've heard some older men have that problem with their equally getting on in years wives. Women should know one thing: the great majority of men NEVER!! outgrow their sexual desire. I've heard not a few older women (and a few younger ones) refer to sex as "foolishness" and a "bother". If they really think that way and avoid sex with their hubbies of whatever age, then they shouldn't be surprised when sex-starved hubby has an affair.

I would suggest to these sex-avoiding/hating women that they might want to seek a counselor. I don't condone cheating (and I don't doubt that much of the dislike of sex by women is due to the faults or inadequacies of their hubbies), but most married men do not want to look at their post middle-age lives as the no-nooky years.

No offense, but if you think most women abhor sex, you must be doing it wrong.

Sex life was awesome....then we had kids.
