    Why Would He Lie To Be About Being A Virgin?
    Soo I recently Found Out that my boyfriend is not so innocent. I asked him a while back if he was still a virgin and he told me he was. I believed it of coarse. So then I asked him again and he told me that he wasn't and he just didn't want to tell me what he wasn't so I wouldn't get mad. Why is this bugging me so much?:( its weird. Any advice...

    Its bugging you so much because he lied to you. Honesty is important in a relationship, and its shook you up because you have discovered that he didn't tell the truth

    He probably didn't tell you the truth because he was embarrassed.

    I agree with J-9. Not that it makes it OK to lie, he should have told you the truth, even though maybe he was embarrassed.

    why would he be embarrassed? What's there to be ashamed of?

    OK well since he lied to me about this. Which I think is important does that mean he's not trust worthy? Can I still trust him even know he lied to me?

    It's anyone's guess why he lied to you, no one on this board can help you there.

    The bottom-line is he lied to you, and if you ask him why he lied he may just lie again. You have to make him realize you won't tolerate dishonesty.

    I sure wouldn't. I would be suspicious of everything he has ever said.

    Honestly after he lied to me about him not being so inncoent. I don't believe half the he says anymore.hmm I just don't know. So I should make him earn my trust. That seems fair...

    I bet he's wishing he'd never told you the truth, that only leads to punishment.

    He lied, then came clean. If you can't trust him, let him go.

    Good luck.

    Ask yourself this. Does it change who he is? Is he a different person because he wasn't a virgin?

    Are you really mad that he lied to you or are you mad that he didn't save himself for you?

    You seem to place a lot of imortance on this, maybe that's why he lied, because he knew how you felt about being his first.

    He came clean, personally I think that shows what kind of guy he is, he couldn't continue lying to you. But now you're punishing him for it.

    If you can't get over it, then just cut him loose. Really, that's the only answer.

    Good luck.

    One thing for sure, you have enough facts to reconsider your wanting to be with him the rest of your life.

    You have to question the fact that if he lied about something that's so important to you, how many other things he may be covering up.

    Did you ever ask him why he lied?

    Maybe he lied because he's a bad kisser.

    Ask yourself if you're mad because he lied to you or because he's already had sex, and it wasn't with you.

    It actually depends on the girl, if I need to lie I will but if I can be honest with her and I know that she will like for who I am I won't hesitate to tell her that I've already had sex (even though I'm only 16 and it's a bad thing).

    Imo your fiancé was ashamed of telling you the truth, and didn't lie because he likes lying or for the sake of it.

    no this doesn't change who he is. He still is the same person. Which brings me to my question. I kind of have a secret that he doesn't know about. Am I suppost to tell him. Damn. I got some serious problems.. =/ no I'm not mad that he didn't save himself for me. I'm mad that he would lie to me about it. Hmmm... ok so the main questions know is do I tell him my secret or not.

    This secret, did you tell him something else, not mention it at all, is it a lie by omission or an out right lie or just a secret?

    If it's a lie, then you can't be mad at him if you lied too.

    Up to you, but a relationship without trust, isn't a relationship.

    I will admit... that I have lied to my previous girlfriend (one girl) that I was a virgin when I was not. My reasoning for this are the following. This is in no way shape or form a defense or a way to clear my name. I lied. It's true. I made a booboo.

    1. She was a virgin who grew up in a strict family and she hadn't even had her first kiss when we started dating. We were in college, and I liked her, so I figured that if she knew I was not a virgin, I wouldn't have a shot in hell in dating her. So I lied.

    2. I was a bit embarrassed, as the girl I lost my virginity to, was her hallmate, who I dated in high school... and I figured things would get quite sticky if she found out. I lied.

    Overall, I knew that if I told her I was not a virgin, then she would brush me off or would not have given me a chance as to my "not-so-innocence," so I lied.

    It wasn't a smart move, as I told her the truth after about a year of dating, and she was quite furious with me, mainly because I told her soon after we had slept together. Another bad move on my part.

    Yes, it was stupid. It was a mistake. I regret lying to her about it.

    To add to this, the girl and I dated for two more years afterwards. She forgave me, and never held it over my head (I really appreciate her for this).

    Since there hasn't been any innovations in time machines, you have two choices: forgive and move on, or drop him.

    No I never asked him why he did. I don't want to start a fight or anything.
