Is he going to be comfortable lying to his wife? Will his wife agree to lie with him? Plus, long term lies are difficult. They’re not impossible, I’ve done it occasionally, but they can cause problems, not the least of which is that you can start to slip into doublethink.
Well, as stated above, my wife already knows. She has been “sort of” lying for/with me, though. This is mostly when she’s at an event and I’m not there and everyone expects that I should be there. She doesn’t want to be the one to tell them so she makes something up or simply says that I’m home with our older daughter.
She wants this to stop, though. She’s actually my biggest advocate of “going public” with something as widespread as Facebook or something. That suggestion surprised me. I think she thinks I’m being “sneaky” by not wanting it to come up and thinks I should just get the “coming out” over with—she may very well be right!
