Man, I hate a liar. Sure, we’ve probably all bent the truth on occasion—maybe to smooth things over, to dodge an awkward conversation, or to spare someone’s feelings—but as a gullible gal myself, lying just really rubs me the wrong way. There’s something about realizing you’ve been lied to that makes you question everything else you’ve been told, too. Was any of that actually true? What else were they hiding? And, perhaps worst of all, how long had I been happily believing it?
But the lies we’ve gathered here are something else entirely. They’re a whole lot more brazen than your standard “my phone died” or “she’s just a friend.” We’re talking some of the craziest lies men have told women—wildly implausible, completely shameless, and somehow delivered as though they were perfectly believable.
