The 10 Lies Women Tell on a First Date

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at IU chapter.

Admit it… You’ve probably done it once or twice.  First date lies?  No prob.  We’ve all been there.  If you have some funny ones, comment below to reveal the little white lies that you accidentally slipped out.

Lie: I’m definitely not the jealous type.
Reality: Look at that girl one more time and you’re dead meat.
 
Lie: No, I wouldn’t mind at all to sit and watch you play video games for hours.  In fact, I would enjoy it.
Reality: Okay… this one is self-explanatory.
 
Lie: Oh my god, I love the Colts!
Reality: I’ve never been much of a basketball fan.  Oh, wait.  The Colts are a baseball team, right?
 
Lie: I’ve only slept with 2 guys.
Reality: When I was 19.
 
Lie: I work out every day.
Reality: If by working out, you mean reaching up and down for the remote while I watch television.
 
Lie: I love beer!  It’s tots my fav.
Reality: If you ever make me touch a beer which is full of empty cals, I will never speak to you again.

Lie: I’m not the clingy type.  Nor am I desperate for a relationship.
Reality: But I will stalk your Facebook like a mad woman when I get home tonight.  And if you ask me to marry you tomorrow, I may or may not say yes.

 
Lie: Oh, please let me pay the bill.  You don’t have to pay for it all.
Reality: I didn’t even bring my credit card, or debit card, or any cash.  If you agree with me, this will be humiliating.

Lie: I’m looking for a REAL man.
Reality: How am I ever going to find a real man?  I have fake hair, fake nails, fake boobs, fake eyelashes, and a fan tan!
 
Lie: I’m definitely not your average girl.
Reality: Even though my friends and I are all the exact same person.  I swear.
