Your Turn
Today is going to be something a little different. I'm going to try an experiment and see how it works. On Friday's from Noon to Midnight Pacific time I am allowing anonymous comments. I really want Your Turn to allow everyone to participate even if they don't have a Google account or don't want to identify themselves. Plus, for the item today, you might all want your anonymity. You don't have to be, but for the next 12 hours you can.
Today's topic is the biggest lie you have told to someone or been told by someone.
Remember the anonymous comments feature only lasts until midnight and if it is abused it will not be making a return appearance.
I didn't have an STD when I did.
ReplyDeleteNo one who knows me currently knows I was born a man.
ReplyDelete"It's not personal, it's business"
ReplyDeleteI was repeatedly told since I was a little girl that hell exists. Imagine being a 6 year old and fearing a lake of fire and brimstone, where you burn in torment forever, if you are not right with god when you die. I lived with nightmares and terror for years.
ReplyDeleteI didn't get over that fear until I was nearly thirty years old.
Enty is my lover and he's fabulous!
ReplyDeleteActually, an old boyfriend didn't pull out when I told him to so the next day I had to rush to a clinic and claim it was forced intercourse to get the morning after pill. In a way it was, but if they knew the truth I wouldn't have gotten the hour lecture from the doctor.
This is like Post Secret, I like it!
ReplyDeleteThat said, when I think of my answer, it's getting posted as "Anonymous." :)
"I'm not cheating on you, honey." Told both to and by me.
ReplyDeleteI slept with a Married Guy because I HATED his wife. His wife was my Boss. I never felt guilty. She knew he cheated on her with an employee.
ReplyDeleteA girl in college with my boyfriend didn't have her assignment done on time so she said her best friend had died... prof. knew she was lying and asked her to bring in the death announcement from the newspaper. She hasn't come back since. Ick!
ReplyDeleteI cheated on my husband with my best friend......a girl. Her and I are no longer friends, and he has no idea. Until the day I die, I will never tell a living soul and if she ever said a thing....I would deny it until my last breath. Biggest mistake I EVER made.
ReplyDeleteI was once told by an old boyfriend that his dad was dead and he never really knew him. His dad called my dorm room one day looking for him. His roommate had given him my number.
ReplyDeleteIt's either a good thing or really boring but I don't think I've ever told a big lie...
ReplyDeleteLet me think...
I don't love you. I won't miss you.
ReplyDeleteI think about him everyday. He's dead now and I will regret it forever.
I said I had a miscarriage when I didn't.
ReplyDeleteMy son is by egg donor. I didn't want anyone to know as one side of the family would feel "He's not really kin to us", but the other side would fell "She's not really his mother because he's egg donor". I live in Texas, and I couldn't risk it. Now that he is a preschool kid, he looks like me (I was smart enough to choose an egg donor that resembled me.) Big secret, I know.
ReplyDeleteI worked as an "escort" for two years while in graduate school.
ReplyDeleteOK, here's a good one. An ex was living in my house. I told him I was coming home because a relative was sick and dying. I flew home, he was out, I changed the locks, called him and told him he didn't live here anymore. He had trashed my house.
ReplyDeleteIn my teen years I told my parents a million lies about where I'd been and what I was doing only to find out later that my mom knew all along.
ReplyDeleteAs for anything juicy, I'll save that for an anonymous post later.
Or not. I'm not sure.
I told fellow staff members I couldn't help out at an event because I had to babysit. I was actually having a pregnancy teminated from the married guy I was sleeping with.
ReplyDeleteI dated a married sheriff deputy while I worked at the same station. No one knew.
ReplyDeleteMy family knows me to be 'frigid' to men, since I was a teenager. I wouldn't accept a date, and didn't date, but like 5 dates before I met my husband in my mid-30's. Yes, I was a virgin well into my mid-30's. Anyway, they still don't know the reason why I was frigid and an ice queen until I met him. I've always said he was the nicest guy in the world. And he was. He was the one guy that could make up for the football senior who did his best to try and rape me after a High School Bonfire when I was 15. My husband new why I was cold, but my 3 brothers still don't. They will never know. Why? They'd hunt him down today and kill him, just like they would have 30 years ago!
ReplyDeleteThis was about 15 years ago. Me and my g/f at the time bought our first house together. We planned on getting married. A few years later, she and her sister were in Cancun. Her sister was starting a business there. The g/f called and said she wouldn't be back on time, because the flight was overbooked. (a lie).
ReplyDeleteShe came home 5 days later. Said she wasn't happy and wanted to break up but wanted to keep the house. I said fine, just buy me out. She said she would have to get a roommate. I said that's your problem. An hour later, her lover from Mexico arrives at the door. He hardly spoke any English, and was 10 years younger than her. So while I was in the master bedroom for the next week packing shit up, sleeping, they were in the spare bedroom on the other side of the wall fucking. Obviously, he was just looking for a free ride to America. He got it.
So basically, the whole relationship was a big fucking lie.
P.S They ended up getting married, she got pregnant, miscarried (on my birthday of all days), both got hooked on crack, divorced. She ended up losing the house and last I heard she is living with her folks and is on state disability for depression.
I tell people I'm a horrible liar and that's why I never lie.
ReplyDeleteI'm actually a really good liar and will lie to anyone about just about anything. I'm not compulsive, it's just fun sometimes.
Boy, I like this Enty. I've already posted two things down that I never thought I would. Am going to post another one. Dammit, I know you know I've posted others, and of course, mine are the best dirty little secrets. I'm going to do another one. More interesting than the other 2, but far less scandolous.
ReplyDeleteI, like someone else in here, said it was a miscarriage too. At least I'm not the only one. I still feel like crap about it.
ReplyDeleteI have the female orgasm. There, I said it. It is MAGNIFICENT! My husband loves it! I never knew sex could be so hot. I hear about other women how their sex life is ok. Not me! I'm a geezer, but my husband gets it right EVERY TIME!
ReplyDeletei said i had an abortion when i didnt.
ReplyDeletei got him back.
size doesn't matter.
ReplyDeleteI'm curious. Y'all said you were having an abortion, but you were never actually pregnant? I'm out of the loop on the pregnancy thing, Sorry.
ReplyDeleteTold my wife "I love you".
ReplyDeleteMy in-laws HATE me. They say very mean things to me and belittle while my husband is not looking, but I let it go because I don't want him to be hurt by their behavior.
ReplyDeleteOther than the typical lies to my mother, the only big lie I have ever told is telling my kids there is a Santa Clause. I feel wierd about that, actually, but still do it. There is also the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy in my house.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was little, my parents told me there was a boogie man who was always out looking for kids that were out of bed too late. I was scared out of my pants and had nightmares all the time. I still remember what he looked like in my nightmares, and it still scares me to this day.
By the way...I don't think hell is a lie...not sure if there is a firey lake or not, but I think it's there and is probably an eternity of being treated the same way you treated others on earth. IMO
After I went on my first date with my now-husband, I told my parents we went out to dinner and to the movies. In actuality we went to his place and ended up having sex. Even though we've been married for years, I still feel like if my parents ever found out I would get grounded or something.
ReplyDeleteBTW, I love having the anonymous comments b/c I dont' have a Google/Blogger account but would love to post comments. I feel like such a part of the CDAN family now. Yay!
When I was 16 & pregnant, I told my mother that I knew who the father of my baby was, but I really didn't. I had to confess I was pregnant to get her to pay for the abortion. That was a brutal time in my life.
ReplyDeleteBiggest lie ever told to me? I was never told my older brother was adopted until he had to register for the draft & didn't have a birth certificate. Then that secret came out.
I tell everyone I graduated from college (including on my resume) but I actually didn't finish. I am still 4 credits short and have been for about 15 years. Stupid huh? But I've never really found a reason to go back and finish.
ReplyDeleteI lied about having a job, when I was going through unemployment. I tried the escort thing for almost a year. It was a waste of my time. I specialized in massages with happy endings. Only a few of the men were worth my time.
ReplyDeleteI could NEVER pretend to love nor like anyone for money. I would fail miserably. Can't put up with Mr. Inadequate for some green and have to tolerate his musty balls and little dick.
Re; Anonymous at 12:39: Troy Aikman just went back after 20 years and finished his. He lacked 2 courses too!
ReplyDeleteIf my girlfriend told me one of these miscarriage/abortion lies like the ones stated above, I would fuck her up worse than what Chris Brown did to Fivehead.
ReplyDeleteIf it weren't for my oldest stepdaughter, I would leave her father.
ReplyDeleteI think not telling someone they were adopted is just awful. Both of my children are adopted and have always been very open about it. It is just a part of life for them and us and we don't have this deep dark secret hovering over us. Plus, they don't ever have to feel ashamed about something they should never feel ashamed of in the first place.
ReplyDelete"I would fuck her up worse than what Chris Brown did to Fivehead."
ReplyDeleteBut you are EXACTLY the guy that would hear this because of this treatment of women.
To the person who lied about graduating from college, be careful because employers can easily check that!
ReplyDelete12:37-I jumped in bed with my hubby the first night too! We're such sluts! LOL!!!
ReplyDelete"Anonymous Anonymous said...
ReplyDeletesize doesn't matter.
12:32 PM"
that's mine too! teehee.
My ex-boyfriend used to make random call to find women he could have phone sex with while I was out (we lived together). This was in the late 80's/early 90's, before internet porn and chat rooms were available. I never knew about it until I came home one night and he was freaking out. He was having phone sex with some lady for awhile and her husband found out. Turns out her husband knew my uncle through AA and threatened to tell him. I am still grossed out by that story. What a loser.
ReplyDelete12:42-Thanks for the advice and I totally agree with you, but I am in sales and all my employers really care are my numbers. I'll keep that for the future.
ReplyDeleteThe worst part about it is I made the Dean's List every year, my GPA was 3.75 and because of changing majors twice, I have about a year's worth of credits more than I need to graduate, but am only short 4 credits in my major.
OK...now this has got me thinking...
anon @ 12:40, i dated him for 3 months in 1993.
ReplyDeletegot a SB trip out of it.
all these yrs later, i still hate the team and will always root for the Washington Redskins.
^ that's anon @ the 1st 12:40. ;)
ReplyDeleteomg this is the best trip of my life...i've had to tell @least three of the lies i've read about...it was your baby-give me abortion $; i'm a bad liar-really i'm not; college call-girl; slept with husbands while hating their wives; cheez n rice, am i going to hell? here's another: did have breast cancer, but really experienced that last bout of hair loss from a "minor" addiction to vicodin NOT chemo like i told everyone. whew!
ReplyDeleteAnon @ 12:45? Anything interesting? Big Ego? There are always those rumors that dogged him after Switzer left.
ReplyDeleteI can't remember ever telling a big lie to anyone. I've told little white lies to my mom about things like how much I spent on a pair of shoes or something. My biggest lie is one of omission I guess you would call it. At 31 I am still a virgin. I was raised Catholic and am still a practicing one at that and I believe in waiting until I find the right man. So my lie of omission is that when my friends talk about sex, I tend to just nod and agree. I can only go by what I've read in trashy romance novels.
ReplyDeleteMy husband didn't tell me that he is bisexual. I was only 22 when I married and very innocent. He cheated on me with both men and women.
ReplyDeleteAnon @ 12:49, just perpetuate the myth. That's just fine. From the other mid-30's virgin. Just wait. You will get it right!
ReplyDeleteYears ago, a guy who worked at the same place as me called to ask me out. At first I didn't know who it was, then when I realized, I still pretended I didn't because I didn't want to go out with him and I was too afraid to say "no."
ReplyDeleteIronically, I thought THAT would be mean and would hurt his feelings!
I know - "Whaat?!?" Asshole.
In my defense, aside from just not being interested, I had heard the guy liked people to, ahem, excrete on him, and I was but a jittery virgin and that shit (LOL) terrified me.
Still, I should have had more balls than that.
when i was younger i met a guy while travelling. got into a relationship with him, travelled toegether a bit. he told me he worked nights at a bar doing accounting and tech stuff for them. turned out he was gun running among other morally questionable things.
ReplyDeletei was unknowingly in a relationship with a person who perpetuates all of the things i hate about the world and the human race in general.....
My boyfriend (of five years) said he WASN'T cheating - found out on his myspace page (that I didn't know he had) that he WAS and moved out three days later
ReplyDeleteI am the best liar I've ever known or seen. It scares me sometimes how well I can do it. I maintained a two year relationship with a guy while escorting on the side. I didn't tell him I was married. My husband disappeared and refused me a divorce, so I just took off and said fuck it. Every time the boyfriend made me mad by trolling for ass on Craigslist, I'd go out and cheat on him and lie about it every time. He caught me with clients twice and I managed to lie my way through both situations. I lied to him about people I'd been with while he and I were separated for a few months. In high school I remember lying about miscarried pregnancies to get attention from my boyfriend but I grew out of that. I lied to my husbands face when I told him I hadn't cheated on him. I lied when I told my boyfriend that I was sure our soon to be aborted fetus was his. I'd only had unprotected sex with him at the time because I'd been forced to have unprotected sex with a client, and I wanted to cover my ass in case I did get pregnant, which I did. I lied to another client to milk the money out of him for the abortion. I got almost $2000 for free from a lonely man who was supporting me simply because he knew I was troubled and thought we were the best of friends. I mostly put up with him because I had to, and strung him along with promises of meeting him later, another lie.
ReplyDeleteGod I keep on double checking this to make sure its anonymous. I'll probably change my IP too.
I was sexually abused by a straight married man when I was a young boy. Since then I purposely go after straight men, take them for all they've got and then destroy their asses.
ReplyDeleteanon @ 12:48, not really. he's super decent, no ego at all. very gracious and extremely kind. he was even pretty timid...hilarious and ironic b/c in MY profession, that's considered bad...you gotta be able to work a rm. he would cringe the few times i brought him to my events. not racist at all, loves his mom.
ReplyDeletethat organization has to give thx to TA and tom landry...they're the only 2 decent things it's ever had.
I also told the miscarriage lie. More than once.
ReplyDeleteI am a compulsive liar...I will lie about almost anything even if it's something that is so small it wouldn't matter. My biggest lie has been cheating on an ex with his brother...I don't regret it either
ReplyDelete12:37 & 12:42...
ReplyDeleteMe too. We have now been married 17 years.
I would have to say the biggest lie I have told/lived is not tellig my husband's father we are married. Everytime he introduces me to people he always says this is my son's girlfriend. I don't know how to break the cycle and tell him because I am afraid of the backlash from not telling him.
ReplyDeleteWoo, I'm gonna try to be open and honest here 'cause there's a culture of shame around this issue.
ReplyDeleteI lied to my parents and told them I did not have an abortion. I was afraid they would disown me.
I was bringing those home so my roommate could decide which one she wanted to buy. I was going to bring them back tomorrow and pay for the one she wanted.
ReplyDeleteThese are really juicy. I love how brave everyone is being with the Anonymous feature. Good job Enty!
ReplyDeleteI told everyone I was laid off from my job when in reality I was fired.
ReplyDeleteI've had sex.
ReplyDeleteI cheated on my husband for about a year before I left him. I technically never lied to his face, I just told him enough of the truth of where I was and who I was with for him not to question it further. He had told me I made him sexually uncomfortable (because I wanted to talk about fantasies) so I went out to prove to myself that there wasn't something wrong with me.
ReplyDeleteBiggest lie ever told to me : I love you. By my parents.
Biggest lies I've ever told:
ReplyDelete(1.) After I found out that my now ex-husband had been cheating on me for a year I told him that I wasn't upset. Truth is I was pissed and made a big mistake by sleeping with my boss. We split, I never told about him about what I had done and I quit my job.
(2.) While addicted to painkillers and Xanax, I got busted by a family member. I had gone down to my parent's house for a weekend and my sister was standing in my old bedroom talking to me while I unpacked some clothes. A bottle of pills fell out of my bag and I told her that it was my now ex-husband's. She never spoke to him again and tried to convince me to get him in rehab or leave him. She was worried that he would get me hooked on them. When we split, she was the happiest out of all of my family members. I've never told her any different.
Biggest lie ever told to me: When I went to get my drivers license my Mom decided it might be time to tell me who my real parents were! Of course, as mad as I was at the time, I realized that the people who raised me were my Mom & Dad. And after meeting the sperm & egg donor and feel very lucky to have my Mom & Dad.
*Sometimes I think I'm bitch, then I think about all of things I've done during my life and realize that I am a bitch!*
anon @ 12:58
ReplyDeletehow do we know you're not lying now?
LOL ;)
On a light note, biggest lie I've ever been told, by a former co-worker: "I'm not really "Amy." I'm her identical twin sister. Amy died, so she won't be coming to work anymore.
ReplyDeleteI told someone that I loved them when I didn't and maintained a relationship with this person for a year. I knew I did not have the same feelings for him as he did for me but because I was always accused to being picky I kept him around until I could not take it anymore.
ReplyDeleteI had to break his heart and let him go and that was the only time I have ever done this because since then I have been on the receiving end of this and I know how it feels now. Sometimes I think that Karma has me down for an extended punishment relationship wise because of this because I have yet to find someone that I have fallen for although I have zero (0) regrets about not being with that guy. I just wish I was more honest with myself and him.
Telling my mom that I was happy moving back to the US, even though I only moved back because of her health and I was worried about her. She would have hated that I changed my life and dreams for her. It was a white lie that gave her peace.
ReplyDelete"Size doesn't matter", OMFG, yes. I slept with a then-boyfriend and broke up with him afterward, because he was *that* small. I also told him that "Yes, I felt something", when I wasn't actually sure he had penetrated! LOL. I found out the hard way that size really does matter at a certain point.
When I was a senior in High School I drove to the University of Miami with my best friend who went to school there, a friend of hers, & my boyfriend.
ReplyDeleteI told my parents I was staying at the school with my friend, my boyfriend told his parents he was staying with his cousin who also attended, but instead we took a bus to Key West and went camping for the week. To this day no one ever found out.
OMG....I thought I was the only big liar out there.....I have been having an affair for almost 3 years on and off with my boss's boss who runs our company.
ReplyDeleteI am divorced but he is living with someone. Whenever we travel (fairly often) we sneak into each others rooms. Sometimes we get a hotel room at lunch and sometimes I just blow him in his car...
Obviously I lie to everyone about this....
Size doesn't matter, yeah right - lol
ReplyDelete"It's not the size of the boat, but the motion of the ocean."
"Yeah, but it's pretty damn hard to get to England in a rowboat..."
in my 20's i was a mule...like in the movie Maria Full of Grace. I smuggled drugs from south of the border to north america. I did it for a while and made lots of $$$. Stopped after my boss, who was a woman, was murdered. Shotgun to the face.
ReplyDelete12:39 #1, I know three people in that exact situation. You might be surprised at how very common it is.
ReplyDeletei'm an actor and have been the subject of a blind or two on this site.
ReplyDeletei tell people i hate the press and don't read anything about myself, but i secretly like to troll blogs such as this and occasionally "out" my peers when i know they are the answer to blind items/rumours
My roommate told me he had cancer and was going through chemo so he didn't have to come to my birthday party. He also did this to get money from a boyfriend and get another friend to do everything from him. He was lying.
ReplyDelete@1.16pm are you Tom Cruise?? lol
ReplyDeleteI just dropped out of college for the 3rd time. And nobody knows, not even my boyfriend who I live with. everyone thinks I am about to finish my second year, of my 3rd try. I have no idea how to get out of this one!
Anon 1:11-I would be willing to bet big money that after 3 years of this, everybody already knows about your affair and just pretends they don't! LOL!
ReplyDeleteI lost my virginity at 12- raped by a douchebag. Didn't tell a soul until I was 15 and never did tell my fam. To this day, regret not telling/prosecuting/etc and worry that he did it to someone else after me.
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteAnon 1:16-No....He's BEN AFFLECK!!!! LOL!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love you. To my PARENTS.
ReplyDeleteI think they are the most awful human beings.
But even at the age of 40, I still apologize to them for me being "troubled"
Maybe if they hadn't chained my brother to his bed or beat him daily I wouldn't be. They are super religious and always put on a perfect outward face and as a child and to this day it makes me physically ill to think about.
I can honestly say I will be relieved and happy when they are dead.
There.
I said it.
1:24-I too was raped and really don't like to talk about it. Please don't blame yourself...you were only 12 years old, you poor thing.
ReplyDeleteYou should talk to someone at some point, preferably a counselor.
And for what it's worth...I did try to prosecute and they wouldn't go after him because it was date rape.
SCUM....
Like Jack Nicholson and Bobby Darin, I was raised by my grandparents and told that my mother was my older sister. My grandparents legally adopted me but never told me even though EVERYBODY knew the truth. Family member always treated me badly and were very jealous of the attention lavished on me.
ReplyDeleteI said I wasn't jealous that Jax got to meet Enty.
ReplyDeleteI was having a long distance relationship (both flying back and forth). We told all our friends and family that we met on an airplane when in fact we met in an internet chat room. Thank God we broke up...
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteDuring the day I was a timid little legal secretary. At night I beat the daylights out of wealthy men for money in a dungeon. For all of the abuse that was heaped on me by my boss and alpha-male co-workers, I gave it back tenfold to my clients. Sometimes I think of this as I round the corner on my way to law school.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was 27 I found out I was pregnant. No problem, just get an abortion. Problem was it was too far along in the pregnancy. (Yes I am an intelligent human being, I just thought I was fat and my periods have always been highly irregular so missing them wasn't a big deal.) My boyfriend at the time who is now my husband decided to give the baby up for adoption. Neither one of us want kids and we were in no way financially capable of providing for a child. We gave our baby to two wonderful gay men who have since been married (yay!). Right after the baby was born my parents were visiting and we ran into the two men and their baby. It was very awkward and I never told my parents (or anyone else for that matter). Sometimes I feel guilty that I don't feel guilty.
ReplyDeleteI secretly love the TV show Reba although I say I hate it. I watch it like every day.
ReplyDeletei got fired as a counselor at a treatment program (for teenagers who had problems just like mine) b/c i failed a drug test. i lied to my family about why i wasn't working at said program anymore- i told them i was "burnt out", and wanted to come back home. thing is, i was burnt out on all of the drugs i was taking, not the stress of the job.
ReplyDeleteWow, I'm boring because I can't think of anything.
ReplyDeleteExcept that I, too, love the show Reba.
1:27, I still feel guilty for being so glad my dad died.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was a sophomore in college, I cheated on my boyfriend (who I'd been dating since my sophomore year of high school) with a guy I had classes with. My boyfriend accused me of flirting with the guy, and I admitted that I was attracted to him but assured him that it wasn't mutual. The guy and I only got together a few times, and my boyfriend and I got married 3 years later. We've now been married 11 years, and I hate having that secret, but it would kill him to know the truth.
ReplyDeleteI tell people I'm bisexual because I think it makes me sound cooler and more open minded.
ReplyDeleteHow about my biggest future lie? I want a third baby, but my husband doesn't, so I plan to go off the pill without telling him in May.
ReplyDelete1:16 - u r a sneaky guy lol.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading everybody's story. Very interesting. This could become a book lol.
i once told my ex that i had a miscarriage when in fact i had an abortion. that really bit me in the ass down the road.
ReplyDeleteI'm fine.
ReplyDeleteI've told many a lie. The biggest one is to myself.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was younger I was home with just grandparents a lot as my parents worked all day. My grandparents didnt' speak english so I always picked up the phone. I have this one vague memory of a man who called and asked if my parents were home and when I said no if I could take a message he asked me to do him a favor and asked me to touch myself. I was 8 and didn't realize what it all meant. I told myself I made this up for years after I realized what it meant.
I don't know if it had happened before or again after, all I remember is that brief glimpse. But what I do know is I have a fear of older men, and am scared to be in a room alone for extended periods of time with older men.
I was addicted to heroin, painkillers, and methadone and lived in my car at one point. Sometimes I wonder if people would ever believe me if I told them. Other times, I walk out my front door and hear the birds chirping and have to pinch myself, because I don't really believe this is my life.
ReplyDeleteBiggest lie told to me: I had a friend throughout elementary school and high school who was a pathological liar, and she told some whoppers. She dropped out of high school in 11th grade because she had a 38 average in trig. At the end of that school year, she showed up and said she had graduated early at another school and won a full scholarship (including grad school) to the University of Texas. I ran into her a couple of years later and she came to my house for lunch. A day later I noticed that one of my rings was missing ...when I saw her again a few weeks later, she held out her hand, with MY ring on it, and said, "Look what my boyfriend gave me!"
ReplyDelete1:39, I once told my mom that I heard my dad saying my brother and I were "accidents" and she said "well, he didn't plan you, but I did."
ReplyDeleteI lost my virginity at 16 on my then boyfriends bedroom floor.
ReplyDeleteI'm now with an amazing guy who I love more than anything, but I lie to him that he makes me orgasm a lot more then he actually does... he DOES make me come, just not as frequently. He's just so insecure i felt it was the only way, and now i can't go back on it.
We experiment a lot but he won't let me experiment as much as i want to, and it's driving me mad.
I'm back, to admit that yes size does matter and I've lied to someone about that one before.
ReplyDeleteThis one isn't about me but my father and it is a little confusing so bare with me.
ReplyDeleteWhen my father was about 2 years old, his mother died of cancer so he never really knew her. His father never talked about his mother because he was so heart broken about the situation and they had no contact with her family because they were from Scotland. Several years later, his father remarried and his wife adopted my father as her own. My father's father ended up dying when my father was in his early 20s. The only family member he had left was his adoptive step-mother. Everyone had already died on his father's side and he had no contact with his birth mother's family. My father is now in his early 50s and his adoptive step-mother just passed away last year. After the funeral, a church member from his adoptive step-mother's church handed him a bunch of documents with the words "DESTROY" written on them. It turns out that my father's original parents were in fact his aunt and uncle and he was adopted at birth from his mother's sister and another man. The worst part is that his step-mother and father had no intention of every telling him this. He also finally found out that he has a family that now resides somewhere in England but he had been kept from them this whole time because after his "mother" had died of cancer, his "father" was afraid they were going try to take him back and his father wouldn't let any of the family have contact with him. Now my father has no family because of these lies and he can't find his real mother nor does he even know why he was given up for adoption.

ReplyDeleteMany thanks to you. I am fine now though- went to therapy thanks to a great former boyfriend and very happy with my life, just drift to that thought every once in a while.
Anon 1:28, I met my husband on the internet too, we have never told our parents how we really met. We just say a friend introduced us.
ReplyDeleteI lie all the damn time to get out of work so I can stay home and read gossip. Especially Ent.
ReplyDeleteBiggest lie ever told me (I forgot, sorry, lol):
ReplyDeleteA girl I knew from a town even smaller than the one I grew up in, spun this elaborate tale of being a mafia girlfriend, having a murdered boyfriend, having had a child at what would have been the age of 12 (if the story were to have checked out) that died of leukemia at age 4...on and on and on. When I mentioned it to a mutual friend, she laughed her ass off. "Gangsters...in Washougal?"
I've also heard "I didn't sleep with her." That one sucked the most.
I had unprotected sex in my marital bed with a mutual friend of ours. Because i was trying to conceive and knew the timing was very tricky, i then made sure to have sex with my husband when he came home that night.
ReplyDeleteThree weeks later i found out i'm pregnant... I'm pretty, pretty sure it's my husband's; the baby looks idenitical to his brother, but you just never know.
@ I tell everyone I graduated from college (including on my resume) but I actually didn't finish.
ReplyDeleteOn your resume, write down "In Progress" beside it. For potential employers, that is the easiest lie to bust someone on.
My college boyfriend spent the night with another girl but told me he was at "church camp" What a douche!
ReplyDeleteMy boyfriend left me so I told him I had been pregnant and gotten an abortion. None of that was true. It made him feel bad though, so he left the girl he was seeing to be with me again. We are not together anymroe, but I onder all the time if he thinks about me. Other that this secret, I lead a very normal life.
ReplyDeleteI no longer find my husband attractive, and in fact no longer like him as a person. Part of me really wants to get out, but things are tricky.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous at 1:41 - that was what I mean too - I lied and said I miscarried, when I actually had an abortion. To my ex.
ReplyDeleteAnd for the guy that wants to go Chris Brown on me for that lie? I just say walk a mile in my shoes, buddy. Let's see how well you balls up in the same situation.
also, i lied to my parents and friends that i was in a normal relationship when in fact he was terribly abusive. of course, they knew the truth. and i got pregnant by him. and we finally broke up for good after i was abused the whole time during my pregnancy. and never saw him again. today, i still haven't told my child about his sperm donor father. my husband loves him as much if not more than his brother and sisters. i just know that one will bite me in the ass as well.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was about 6, I told my teacher that my dad had been hit in the eye with a firework on the way home from the school firework display the day before. A complete lie, just showing off or something I suppose, can't really remember why I said it. Anyway, we had an assembly with the whole school where the dangers of fireworks were discussed. I had to stand up in front of the whole school (about 400 kids) and repeat the lie about my dad, and embellish it when the headmaster asked me loads of questions. I remember feeling really disturbed about such a big lie but also quite proud of myself. What I had forgotten was that my parents were both on the PTA (parent teacher association) and the headmaster had phoned my mum to find out if my dad was ok. I got into Soooooo much trouble. The next morning, my mum made me go into the staff room before school and apologise to all of the teachers. Then I had to apologise to my class. Then I had to stand up in front of the whole school in another assembly and apologise to all the other kids. Shame? Never felt anything like it.
ReplyDeleteI have one more thing to add.
ReplyDeleteI had a child when I was 15 years old by a family friend who raped me. I gave the baby up for adoption. He will be 18 years old next year and I had not told anyone whom I was ever serious with, (despite my having a c-section scar although it is one of the bikini cut scars.) I had not told even the guy I was once engaged to and had not planned on ever telling him because it took me years to get past that situation.
My worst fear is that one day my biological son may show up and find me and I will have to relive my horror. I am afraid to tell a guy I am serious with this because it may scare them away.
abortion lie: if i tell someone about it, i say i had one, but in reality i've had 2.
ReplyDeleteMy son's father used to beat me. We lived where I had no family and be kept me away from everyone. The lie is that when my parents asked about it I would tell them they were crazy. I wish now I would've told them because I know they would've saved me from him. And my son wouldn't have to see him every other weekend. I'm terrified for him.
ReplyDeletei have a lot more money than anyone besides my family and boyfriend know about due to a legal settlement. i moan as much as anyone about student loans, rent, low salary (which is true), etc. but am way way better off than any of my friends - and my parents. i almost died for the money but its weird having to lie about it.
ReplyDeleteWow...you guys are blowing my mind.
ReplyDelete1. Lying about an abortion to get the guy back is WRONG!!!! Sorry. That is really Fucked Up!
ReplyDelete2. Lying about your education? You will get caught. Trust me. Background checks. Please stop or complete the credits. You only have a few more credits. I believe 15 credits? 5 classes?
A Citibank worker was recently fired for lying about her educational background.
My husband and I have never told anyone that our 10-year-old son was conceived via sperm donor (husband has no sperm). Plan to never tell our son. Family always wonders who he looks like. So do I....
ReplyDeleteI experimented with sex with 4 other girlfriends at a sleepover in the 5th grade.
ReplyDelete"...the only big lie I have ever told is telling my kids there is a Santa Clause. I feel wierd about that, actually, but still do it. There is also the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy in my house."
ReplyDeleteI LOVE THAT LIE!!! SO ADORABLE!
The woman who is still a virgin at 31! You go GIRL! DO NOT BE ASHAMED! BE PROUD! I'm Catholic & lost my virginity at 20. Lose it when you're ready! Don't ever feel ashamed about still being a virgin. Are you kidding. I wish I was still a virgin! LOL.

ReplyDeleteI was told by my grandparents who raised me that my mother died in an auto accident when I was an infant, and that my father was so stricken with grief that he up and left one day.
ReplyDeleteI didn't find out until I was 21 that my father had in fact murdered my mother and was up for parole.
People think I have several pets because I love animals.
ReplyDeleteI do love them and have lots rescues in my home to keep from killing myself.
If I die, how can I be sure they will be well looked after? If I ever go through with it, I would have them put down. But actually going through with putting down several pets has prevented me from dying. I saved them and they save me.
We are certainly an interesting group.
ReplyDeleteAdoption: Better to tell your kids than to have them find out later.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I think it's Fucking BEAUTIFUL that you guys adopted children. Love it!
The Actor who trolls the site: LOL!!! Funny! I just hope you're not some Tween. ZZZZZ
Raped/Abused: God! I hate those comments. It really makes me want to give you a Big HUG & Beat the crap out of the person who did that to you.
I sold hash for a couple of months to finance my move to another city. Was almost busted when I tried to sell to an off-duty cop who was with 20 other off-duty cops. With one gram in my hand (and 80 in my purse), I claimed to have bought it earlier in the night, was out of money and wanted to continue drinking - and that's why I was selling it. She ordered me to go home immediately and never be so stupid again. I did go home...that night. And sold off the rest and moved a week later.
ReplyDeleteI had a major Britney-like nervous breakdown when I was sixteen and caused a potentially fatal car accident while my mother was driving on the freeway. I had had enough of her bitchery and blacked out from anger and twisted the wheel. No one was injured though the car hit two others. My mother subsequently placed citizen's arrest on me and I was in juvy for two weeks.
ReplyDeleteI told my friends and everyone at school that the reason I hadn't been there was because I was on vacation. No, you would never ever expect this of me if you met me. With the exception of my family members, everyone thinks I'm a sweetheart who couldn't and wouldn't hurt a fly.
I de-virginized two boys within 30 minutes. Not at the same time, though.
And the number of bed partners? No, it isn't three like I say. It's sixteen. I am clean, though and have since majorly cleaned up my act.
I lied about my SAT score. Majorly.
I haven't had sex in 2 years. By choice. And also because of my increasing insecurities.
I overdosed on ecstasy and nearly died.
I know my father is cheating on my mother-I saw the pictures and texts on his cell phone purely by accident.
The main reason why most of the courses I take are online are due to a flatulence problem.
I do not believe I truly love anyone or ever really have. Except for my dogs and cats.
I stole several cds from my best friend.
I was raped by the boy everyone warned me against dating. I didn't listen to them, swearing up and down he was a gentleman to me. I will never admit to this, even though I wish he was dead. Just because I don't want to hear the "I told you so"'s.
I came thisclose to sleeping with my father's younger and married best friend. They were supposedly trying to have kids at the time. Still are.
I slept with my friend's crush on her bed.
Every single one of these secrets would shock you if you knew me and saw me. On my defense, I have made many positive transformations in the past few years. I vow to never be that person again.
When I was with my boyfriend, he casually asked me one day about what my best sexual experience had been. Me, being dumb, thought he wanted an honest answer, so I told him about this crazy night I had with this other guy a couple of years prior (it involved lots of rough sex, hair pulling, beds moving across the floor, oh so fun). My boyfriend, understandably was upset with me.
ReplyDeleteHe dumped me some time later (totally unrelated circumstances ... actually, he told me the biggest lie I've ever heard, the infamous "I love you" lie) and, as exes are prone to do, we hooked up a couple of times later. After the second time we hooked up post-breakup, I sent him a long email about how I was so wrong, how he was definitely the best sexual experience of my life.
He was so flattered. I was so lying.
Incidentally, the rough sex fella had previously dated two of my friends and I never told either of them that I'd hooked up with him. One of them would kill me if she knew.
my heart goes out to the fellow cdaners who are victims/survivors of sexaual assault and rape. none of you deserved it and i pray that you will be or are well...
ReplyDelete...but to the poster who is exacting revenge sleeping with men and intentionally ruining their lives, please seek counseling...you may end up losing your life by going after the WRONG person.
I've lied about how many men I slept with.
ReplyDeleteI'm the ESCORT who worked for 2 years during grad school.
ReplyDeleteNever had any regrets.
All of the men "loved" their wives, but were into freaky things. They were too scared to ask their wives to stick the dildo up their bum. I realized that all men like the little finger up the bum. Hum di dum.
Realized all men are WEAK! Women have all the power. Don't forget how powerful you women are in this world.
I learned that if I get married...I would want my husband to see an escort rather than have an affair. No emotional connection. Also, there is a big misconception that working girls are all diseased. Trust me. 98% of the women I met in the industry take better care of themselves. I have never had a STD. I know...it's not something I should be proud of, but sometimes I get really annoyed when the media goes after the girls.
The college girl sitting next to you in class or your co-worker...may be working on the side.
After lying to me for 19 years, my mother finally admitted that she never wanted children, loved me as best she could but didn't like me, deeply resented me for ruining her life, and if she could do it all over again, she would have had an abortion.
ReplyDeleteAll I felt was relief when she finally admitted the truth because I'd always known and it gave me peace to finally hear her admit it. It didn't stop me from trying to win her over. It took another 10 years of brutal rejections before I just gave up completely and moved on with my life.
She totally loves my younger brother though. He was "easy" to love - that's her excuse.
2:28, please seek help, no one should feel that way!
ReplyDelete"I do love them and have lots rescues in my home to keep from killing myself."
ReplyDeleteYou're scaring me.
I swear...I want you guys all to come live with me.
Please.You.Are.Never.Alone!
wow!This thread really turned into a True Confessions thing as opposed to just telling what our biggest lies told by us-to us.
ReplyDeleteCharlie Sheen ended up marrying his former heidi fliess escort, denise richards. It can happen. Be careful what you wish for...
ReplyDeleteI hooked up with a guy I met through craig's list. I said I was 20. I was 17. He was 23. I still don't know why I did it, but he was hot. Not sure why he was on there either. Disease-free, no worries.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was in college I lived on campus and the girl on the bottom floor was blind. I went to my boyfriends house (my parents didn't know I was dating at the time and they were very strict with me) and my mom called. I answered the phone and his dogs started barking. I told my mom it was the blind girls seeing eye dog. She totally knew I was lying because he had small yippy dogs and seeing eye dogs are normally larger.
ReplyDeleteBiggest lie ever told: Told my abusive scumbag exboyfriend I was pregnant, and the baby was his. I was indeed pregnant, but I'm pretty sure the child wasn't his. Actually I firmly believe the child was the result of a one-night-stand with a friend. Why lie about it? Well, here's where it get's tricky: My ex and I still slept together when we got drunk even though we'd broken up six months earlier because he enjoyed beating the crap out of me (for 2 years.. God I was stupid!), but I had also slept with the friend that week. That one-night-stand had just started dating my very best friend when I found out I was pregnant, and I myself had just started a new relationship with a third guy.
ReplyDeleteHad an abortion, never told the one-night-stand or the new boyfriend (we broke up shortly after, but he is my best friend still). It was just too complicated.
Wow, I was kind of a slut at 18.. Hmm..
Biggest lie told to me: I will never ever hit you again.. I'm so sorry.
...Dickhead!
I really like cocaine, and I use it quite often. Hasn't really affected my career or relationships with people. Some friends know, some don't. I like to get high.
ReplyDeleteBiggest lie ever told: That anonymous comments can't be traced back to you. Oh yes they can. Most everything on the Internet is traceable. Think twice before confessing, folks, especially if you're using your computer at work. This has been a public service announcement.
ReplyDeleteMy boyfriend when I was 17 date raped me. I never told my family or my dad would have killed him.
ReplyDeleteWhen i was 21, i was engaged to a guy. He became distant and told me he would call me one night. I had a feeling he wouldn't and he didn't. We were engaged- wedding plans were set! Finally, he called me several WEEKS later to break up with me. I never heard it from him but found out he was seeing someone else. Wimpy loser.
I had another boyfriend die from cancer. My child was born with a serious health problem and I spend many of my hours fearful that he will die. Sometimes I think I am going crazy with worry and fear but I haven't told anyone that.
I believed a senior manager in my department who claimed she wanted to mentor me. The opposite was true. She wanted to control me and destroy me. God damn sociopath.
ReplyDeleteI told my boyfriend I was pregnant so he would stick around... after my supposed "miscarrage" he bolted a month later.
ReplyDeleteThe universe's revenge for my lie (never told until now) was that he left on New Years Eve/pm at 12:30, after having a romantic ringing in of the year.
I was torn apart for a long time after from both my deception and his using of me for a NYE date.
I tell everyone I don't think I'll ever get married because I think it's antiquated and useless. The truth is, I doubt anyone would ever want to marry me. :(
ReplyDeletei'm jumping on the 'lied about having a miscarriage' train. HAHAA. it's the worst thing i ever did but it worked....until i dumped him about 6 months later.
ReplyDeletethe worst lie i know of anyone telling was by a former friend. she was married, and couldn't have a baby because her husband (also a friend of mine) was virtually sterile. she moved in with me to go back to school leaving her husband at home in another state. almost immediately, she started a romance with a guy and i couldn't understand it---he was nothing to look at and just kind of a 'duh.' totally not her type.
she moved out to get her own place after we had a falling out over the guy. i told her i couldn't lie for her to her husband when he called and she refused to explain her relationship with this guy to me.
after she moved out, i found out she was pregnant and i knew it wasn't her husband's. she lied to the guy and told him she had testing done and it wasn't his---which you can't even do until the baby comes but he was an idiot and believed her.
her husband took her back and she had the kid who is now 16 and has never been told he's not his dad's kid. essentially, everyone knows the truth except HIM---his family and her family all know the truth.
@Anon @ 2:53 PM "I hooked up with a guy I met through craig's list."
ReplyDeleteI've done this several times. In fact, I did this three times in January. But that's totally not a secret to most people I know!
We are quite the interesting bunch. I love us. All of us! But the guy who exacts revenge on straight married men....you need a spanky!
ReplyDelete@2:08 I also had two abortions and either don't mention them on my doctor's office forms or only claim "1" pregnancy. There. I said it.
ReplyDelete@2:57--I'm glad you said this. I don't know much about computers, but I am too scared to admit anything, even as anonymous (not that I have anything really juicy anyway). But I am super paranoid.
ReplyDeleteI told, and continue to tell my husband, that I love him.
ReplyDeleteYeah, we all know things are traceable by our internet number, but someone has to intentionally seek information about us. Who would seek information about us? If you are using a work computer, DON"T!
ReplyDeleteLie told to me: Just finished banging this dude who was a big studly cop in my close-knit town. Went to the bathroom and found a pair of black crotchless pantyhose hanging from the doorknob. The lie was that he attributed the hose to a friend of his. It was funny, but I didn't believe him as he was telling it. The truth, it turned out much later, was that he was a cross-dresser.
ReplyDeleteLie I told: Years ago, I was working on a weekend. A nearby co-worker's computer was making some ugly sounds, so I walked over and turned it off. Come Monday, it turns out, his computer was totally dead, everything on the hard drive unretrievable including his master's thesis. Oops. The lie I told was saying I knew nothing about it. Confession: He was a smug, pompous bastard, so I kind of enjoyed his misery, even though I hadn't done it deliberately or maliciously.
I have been sleeping with my parents' married friend for a year now. They have no idea and don't even think I am dating anyone. The problem is that now we actually really care about each other and have to figure out how to go about this delicate situation so that we can be happy but those around us won't have their lives ruined!
ReplyDeleteAt the risk of being naive, how would one get our IP number from these posts? Well, at least the anonymous posts. Except by court order?
ReplyDeleteI suffer from very low self-esteem
ReplyDeleteI have had two abortions. When getting the second one, I didn't tell my boyfriend that it was my second. I just pretended that this had never happened before.
ReplyDeleteI tell everyone I had a boyfriend named David who died in Vietnam. It's not true. His real name was Doug and I dumped him and never forgave myself.
ReplyDeleteI have been in a 6 year relationship with someone that I DO NOT LOVE!!!
ReplyDeleteVirtually all of my lies are little ones. "Why yes, your new dress looks terrific!"
ReplyDeleteThis isn't my biggest lie, but was my most involved.
Many, many years ago I was hired to help this woman with her home office for a few hours a day. Duration of the gig was about four weeks. By week three, I was completely sick of her. She'd never ever had an employee before and she was totally grooving on it - in a bad way.
So one morning I had a friend call from a payphone on the subway and pretend to be a concerned passerby who had witnessed me falling down the stairs and then carted off by ambulance. She said I asked her to call on my behalf.
Several hours later, I called the boss from home and claimed to have a severely sprained knee and was on crutches. Moaned in pain, the whole bit. I was shameless. Also tried to quit since I couldn't possibly get to work. No go.
She had her boyfriend pick me up & drop me off every day and help me to the car for that final week. They had the sofa set up so my leg was propped up and there was a work station I could use while semi-prone. She cooked lunch for me and sent me home with dinner every day since I couldn't possibly stand up to cook a proper meal. Yeah, she'd been a jerk to me, but when she thought I was hurt, she rose to the occasion.
I had to keep the pretense for a week. In the end, I injured my other knee because I wiped out while on the crutches (not at her place). I totally deserved that injury.
No, I am not sleeping with your best friend.
ReplyDeleteI've slept with so many people that I lose count at 100. All before age 30. I told my ex spouse that they were number 20. That turned them on. In fact, they were probably about number 100.
ReplyDeleteI was not in love with my current spouse when we got married and still am not. I got married because I was sick of getting my heart broken. I tell them that they are the love of my life.
"he can't find his real mother nor does he even know why he was given up for adoption."
ReplyDeleteDon't you mean his BIOLOGICAL mother? His REAL mother is the mother who raised him. Please don't disrespect adoptive parents. Adoptive parents ARE real parents.
I had a customer call me one morning very upset because they had stayed home from work all day the day before and no-one had shown up to give them an estimate for some work. I spoke with my boss and he said "I most certainly was there, they had a dog that kept barking the whole time" I called the customer back and said yes he was there he was the one the dog kept barking at. The customer then told me, I don't own a dog. "Cricket, cricket" on the line, I apologized and hung up. When I asked him why he lied he said "I thought I could sneek over there today and you wouldn't find out" ASS
ReplyDeleteI told everybody I knew that I had cancer for the attention. Faked surgery, treatment, everything. Then played up my kids I had later as "miracle babies". Just for the attention.
ReplyDeleteI was just thinking about this the other day. I was in high school, and I took my mom's '56 Chevy out, my girlfriend and I were driving around. We parked the car in a parking lot, went with someone else somewhere, and when we came back for the car, I backed it up right into another car. The other car wasn't hurt, but there was a crease in my trunk. I lied and told my mom that someone hit it while it was parked. Small by some standards, but the biggest lie I ever told, and one that's haunted me for nearly 50 years.
ReplyDeleteOK, first of all these comments are anonymous so that people won't be judged. Let's stop advising people to do what WE think is best and just read their secret and move on.
ReplyDeleteBiggest lie ever told to me: I just got out of a 3 year relationship with my boss. Why did the relationship end? Because he got MARRIED a year ago. Not to me. To his fiance he claimed he was with BEFORE we got together but instead he has been with the past 15 years. He "lived with his brother" and we were looking at condo's together, then, instead, he got his own apartment that he filled with furniture he bought on craig'slist, and even called me the night he got married (new year's eve 2008) to tell me he loved me. The worst part is, I still don't hate him. I'm trying to, but I'm so lonely and he was my best friend, so I'm having a hard time doing so.
Worst lie I ever told? Maybe calling in sick to work when I was 16 saying my grandma had died. I am still waiting to be struck down for that one.
..."I was sexually abused by a straight married man when I was a young boy. Since then I purposely go after straight men, take them for all they've got and then destroy their asses."
ReplyDelete...Dad?? Izzat you?
Biggest lie...kind of a toss up between "I do" (I didn't) and "it's not you, it's me" (it's most definitely NOT me, it's you).
i hate my bf mom, but i pretend like she "the best mom ever" ugh
ReplyDeleteThis is not the worst lie but it is the last - I just lied to the mormon at the door trying to give me information that I was Jewish - I am not and I feel a bit guilty
ReplyDeleteA close friend who can be kind of arrogant recently had a hard bitch slap from LIFE. I commiserated with her and was publicly supportive, but was secretly glad she was (finally) put in her place.

ReplyDeleteThe first thing that attracted me to my boyfriend was his wealth. He thinks otherwise, and i will NEVER tell him. He thinks that I am the first person who appreciates him not just his money. I care about him, but his 'financial assistance' in these times are a Godsend.
ReplyDeleteThis feels weird.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was in high school I dated this guy I will affectionately call "douchebag." Well, I was head over heels, thought about him every minute, in love with him. He was half asian, and his mom was a crazy mean Korean lady who also happened to be the vice principal of our high school.
She hated me, hated that we were dating, and hated that I would never be a nice little Korean girl. She would always try to get him to date other girls from our school. Infront of me. Even friends and team mates.
It hurt me to the core, and the night I found out about him cheating on me, I almost jumped off a freeway over ramp on to the freeway.
I was suicidal for several years after that, and required some major psychiatric help.
Looking back, I am so happy I chickened out, but I will never forgive him or his mother, and would punch him in the nose if I could.
I lie to my husband about when I ovulate. I don't want kids.
ReplyDeleteI tell my parents that I've forgiven them for their neglect and abuse, but I really haven't.
ReplyDeleteI always lie to my exboyfriends about my life so they feel even worse for having treated me badly. I tailor the lies to the guy.
I lie to everyone, including myself, about how badly the urge to drink is sometimes.
I lie every time I pretend to regret the abortion.
Everyone keeps asking when me and my husband are going to have kids. We tell them we are not ready yet we are to young and so on. The truth we have been trying since before we got married but we are too scared to disappoint anyone that there might be problems and we can't have kids.
ReplyDeleteI am obsessed with knowing EVERYTHING about my fiance's ex-girlfriend.
ReplyDeleteI have even set up fake myspace pages to befriend her and her siblings and friends, lying about going to school with them.
I strung her twin brother along a 4 month myspace romance promising we would meet soon, just so that I could find out more information on her.
I have run background checks on her and her husband. I know more about her then her friends probably do. I know their phone numbers, address, employers and kids names and birthdays.
And I have never met her before.
Ever.
It started just knowing her name and her parents address. The rest was a result of the internet and very skilled detective work.
Several months ago, I messaged her from my real myspace asking if she was his Ex. When she noticed that I was his fiance, and that he survived the breakup and moved on with his life (she cheated on him), she became insanely jealous.
Now, my myspace tracker tells me that she visits my page 2-3 times daily, so I purposefully string her along by updating my mood and photos of myself so she can have something to look at since my profile is private. I relish every minute of it.
No one knows this, not even my fiance. But he was rather curious when she texted him congratulating him on his engagement and trying to start talking to him again.
oh, and I am not some psycho crazy person who would ever do her harm, its just turned into a very weird hobby.
I just flunked out of grad school, and I really don't fucking care. I hated the program, and can't wait to NOT be in school anymore.
ReplyDeleteI spent a night in the drunk tank. It was horrible. I'll never forget what jail was like, especially since I'm super claustrophobic. There are only a handful of people who know about it. I know it's pretty common, but I think of that night as when I really, really reached a low point with my drinking. I'm lucky I wasn't raped that night.
I was treated badly by my family, they always laughed at me and put me down, my brother would beat me up bad and my parents would ignore it. They praised him and dumped on me. Five years ago I won a state lottery, kept it quiet and didn't tell anyone in my family. I told them I got a job in Florida and moved away. Since then my Dad has lost his business and now he and my Mom struggle financially. My brother is going through a divorce and his wife is screwing him for every penny he's got, sometimes I feel guilty especially when my Mom says I turned out better than she thought I would. They don't visit so I never worry about them seeing my 'toys', but every once in a while I think I should send them some money but I don't.
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely amazing. The lies run the gamut from benign to outrageous. I can't wait to check in later.
ReplyDeleteGreat experiment.
I got out of a week of class and midterms because I told all of my teachers my aunt had died. I even made a fake obituary. It was horrible. The reason I did it was for Greek week in college. Ughhhhhh I'm going to hell....
ReplyDeleteI always always always make up stories to my coworkers about how much I party and have fun. How social I am..the whole bit.
ReplyDeleteThe truth is, I suffer from such severe social anxiety, I hardly ever leave my house. I have friends, but I flake out on them all the time. I've used nearly every excuse. My self-esteem is terrible. It takes a huge toll on me to even get in my car to go to the gym. I feel like such a fake, with the blonde hair, blue eyes, and big smile. Which is why people buy my stories.
I couldn't hate myself more.
And the guy I really like is under the impression that I hate him because I avoid eye contact or any type of contact with him. He'd be floored if he knew how I felt about him. Sadly, I'll never tell him because I don't have the courage. I could probably have him, but the insecurities will forever hold me back. I don't know if there's enough therapy to ever pull me out of this funk.
I wasn't like this until about three years ago. Not sure why, and it's gotten even worse.
My parents had a crappy marriage. My dad was a malingering bastard and my mom was too weak to get rid of him. My mom supported the family and in the later years often accused my dad of stealing money from their accounts. He always talked his way out of the accusations. Over the years, my mom became a dominating shrew, threating to toss my dad out but she never followed through.
ReplyDeleteThirty years into the marriage, as my dad's health failed and he became physically unable to care for himself I found out she had become physically abusive to him. I intervened and took over his care. He passed away a short time later. My mom insisted I clean out his possessions almost immediately after his death. She refused to help. She said to be on the look out for any cash and give it to her.
As I was cleaning out his car I found several thousand dollars hidden in the trunk. I took the money and never told my mom I found it.
Biggest lie ever told: "It's not all about how big it is, it's more about what you know how to do with it "

Biggest lie ever told to me:
Until I was 21 I thought my dad was just that. I found out that he's not my biological father... the whole mess is convoluted but the bottomline is the first part of my life was a lie. I thought there was something wrong with me because of the difference in the way my brother and I were treated to the extent of trying to actually be a boy because I thought my being a girl why my dad hated me...it turns out he doesn't hate me he's just an asshole! Go figure!
Biggest lie told to me: my husband told me that if we didn't marry in his church his parents wouldn't come to the wedding. I caved because his family is bigger than mine and was paying for more. Turns out his parents couldn't care less where we got married and my husband thought he could finally win his dad's love and approval by doing that. No dice. His dad is still an arrogant asshole who tells him he's stupid and worthless (not true my husband is well educated and makes a lot of money) and and the FIL tells people that my sister-in-law is a secretary when she's really a global director of a very big company. I can't wait until the day he dies. Which should be soon since he's got major health problems.
