People who don’t like this get upset. We don’t become friends.
So my friends tend to be people who feel the same way about this. When people like us meet each other, it’s actually a relief. Because we know that we can be ourselves. We can tell each other the truth without the other person getting upset, over-reacting, or second-guessing us. It makes dating, friendship…everything… much easier, and drama free.
And you know what I’ve found out? Guys actually do NOT like to lie! They do it because they think they have to. The real intimacy, closeness, friendship and trust that a guy feels with me when they realize that they can tell me the truth – that I expect men to be men, that I do not blame them for it, I understand why they do what they do and that they actually have the right to do what they want – they become my friends for life, whether we date or not.
So yes- I can say that the people I deal with don’t lie to me. They know that when I ask a question, whether it’s about the fit of my jeans or whether they like a gift I bought them or the dinner I cooked…I ask because I want the information to guide me for the next time I go shopping, or the next time I plan a menu (or the next time I’m tempted by a molten chocolate cake). The answer has to be true, and it has to be accurate. Or they do it as revenge for the time I told them no, as a matter of fact I did not like the flowers they got me, since I don’t like getting flowers in general – I prefer a potted plant, but I thought found the gesture very, very thoughtful.
