Yeah, it is hard. I don't want to lie to my wife either. I guess we'll just get better with time. Plus, when the W moves out, less of this will be required. She'll just grill my two Ds for info...
Hold on just a minute, guys. Nobody said that DBing teaches to lie to your S. GAL & being mysterous does not imply that you lie to anyone. We are just saying that if you play your cards correctly, you learn how to answer your W without spilling your guts all over the place. Seriously, you need to take lessons from my H. He has never given me a play by play of anything he ever attended.
But neither has he lied to me.
Chalk a lot of the misunderstandings on this site to relying on text without context! I don't lie to my wife, I've lied maybe 4 times in 13 years. I meant that I don't want to lie to her, that "being mysterious" often crosses the line for me into manipulation.
I guess I'd rather just say I was out. And have the stones to tell her when she asks "where?" "Out having fun."
