You have met this charming guy and you two have hit it off from day one. He’s your dream guy. Talks big and you have fallen for his charm, big time. One month down the line, you realize during your ‘snooping escapades’ that he has been lying.
Sounds familiar? Well, all of us at some point during our love life have been lied to. It hurts.
Though they say a little lie goes a long way, if you are single and ready to mingle, these are some things you should never dream of lying about.
Your age and birthday
These are the two things most women are guilty of lying about. You should be comfortable in your own skin and embody the age you are at the moment.
If you are young, don’t be in a rush to grow up and if you are older, then just accept the fact that you are aging like fine wine.
It is selfish for someone to lie about his or her birthday for self-gain.
You still live at home with your parents
Call it an instincts thing but most men who still live under mama’s roof, know admitting this calls for a ‘hit the road jerk’.
Of course, for fear of being branded a ‘weakling’ or ‘half-a- man’. They will lie how their crib is under renovation, the watchie lost his keys…all to avoid taking you there. For how long will it last?
Men, we understand times are hard and saving that rent is important. Kindly, be kind to say the truth. It will set you free.
Your cooking skills
What if I can’t make ugali like your grandma? Does it make me less of a woman? Women, never apologize for being a bad cook. Worse, never lie to him you can cook. Period. That is why we have supermarkets offering homemade food…get the hint?
Your bedroom skills
Men are good at ‘praising’ themselves in bed. They claim how they will take you to cloud nine and make you feel like queen Sheba. Only for you to realize he is a two-minute man and can’t differentiate between a French kiss, butterfly kiss or the spiderman one.
Men, don’t get all excited and end up being a mess in bed. Let us be the judge. Trust me, she will brag about you.
How you really feel
There is no need to string along someone telling them how much you like them when you really don’t. If he’s for rebound, please let it not go past one month.
If the chemistry is not there, kindly, save planet Earth from dealing with your curses and regrets. It saves one a lot of time!
How much you like sports
Okay. Most women want to sound like football gurus to impress him. It is the most stupid thing ever! Practically, you have no idea if Man U is a Kenyan or Nigerian club. Save yourself the embarrassment.
Your number
Ladies, giving a guy the wrong number is so old school! If you don’t like him, breathe in and out and tell him. It doesn’t hurt. Rejection is something we have all faced and it’s a part of life.
You are a virgin
This is the worst lie you can tell a man. No need to play Holy Mother yet your cookie jar screams ‘give me a break’! The only species that can get away with lying that they are virgins are men.
It is okay to be honest and tell a man that you are not a virgin, if he can’t accept it then that is his problem. The universe will not stop because of your confession.
