This morning the announcers on my favorite local radio station were talking about the top ten lies that men and women tell their spouses, girlfriends and boyfriends. I thought the topic would make an interesting topic for my Thursday Thirteen.
Thirteen Lies Men and Women Tell
1. Both Women and Men: Nothing’s wrong. I’m fine.
2. Men: This will be my last drink.
3. Women: Oh, this isn’t new. I’ve had it for ages.
4. Men: Sorry, I missed your call.
5. Women: It was in the sale.
6. Men: I’m stuck in traffic.
7. Women: I’ve got a headache.
8. Men: I didn’t have that much to drink.
9. Women: It wasn’t that expensive.
10. Men: I’m on my way.
11. Women: I don’t know where it is, I haven’t touched it.
12. Women: No, I didn’t throw it away.
13. Men: No, your bum doesn’t look big in that.
Okay, I confess. Basically I’m a very honest person. I can’t lie to save myself, but I might have used a couple of these white lies in the past.
What about you? Have you used any of these white lies?
Great list. As for 13, it’s a survival thing ;-)
Oh… maybe one or two… :grin:
Technically some these aren’t lies. lol
Happy T13!
Oh, a few of those look familiar.
*snirk*
How about “Of course you’re the best I’ve ever had, honey!” LOL!!!
Oh, and have I mentioned how much I love love love your cover for “The Bottom Line”??? Gorrrgeous.
Yup – I’ve used a few of those, too. :lol:
My hubby is fond of the saying “Lies have short legs” – mainly because he’s absolute rubbish at telling lies. Lucky for me. :)
Oh, heaven help me, I’ve used more of the male lines. What does that say about me?
I totally say number 3 and my hubby totally says number 10! LOL!
*hugs*

Love the list…I’ve used #1,#3, #5 and #9…lol…I’ll admit that I’ve also stretched the truth a bit about my weight on my driver’s license…..you know…said that I weigh 10 lbs less than what the scale actually said in the am :blush:
I must be weird. None of these lies comes up much between my dh and I.
What? I’ve never used any of these lies. :mrgreen:
This list is all lies, I’m telling you!
:lol:
Would *I* tell a lie? Never. *dodges lightning*
Me? Noooo *crosses fingers behind back and walks away whistling*
Anthony – you’re probably right, but sometimes an honest opinion is okay. ;)
Adelle – LOL that’s true. they’re sort of half lies, depending on the circumstances.
Jennifer – thanks! I love the cover too. I think it’s very striking.
When I say I have a headache, I really have a headache. My doctor said I have super sensitive sinuses.
Er, after reading this list maybe I should have gotten that in writing? :eek:
Happy TT.

Nope, can’t say I’ve ever used ANY of these… :wink:
