When you meet someone you're attracted to, your first inclination is to try to impress them.
Sometimes, purely in hopes of getting them into bed.
Of course, there is nothing more off-putting than someone who is trying too hard, so subtlety is key to being alluring.
Leading us to find ways to make ourselves seem impressive, occasionally leading to being less than honest.
With some people going so far as to be downright deceptive.

As long as no one gets harmed, there's nothing terribly wrong with using a ruse to get someone into bed.
But all lies, big or small, get discovered eventually.
Something everyone should keep in mind should they want something that lasts longer than the night...
