It's never fun to be lied to, particularly by your significant other.

Sometimes we discover that they were lying to us in order to surprise us for our birthday or anniversary, making the dishonesty easily forgiven.

In other instances, however, their lies were all to cover up something much less celebratory.

For better or worse, some people's partners are very convincing liars.

Others however are simply unable to keep a secret, and their stories or explanations to cover things up only make things worse.


Redditor CanadianKiss was eager to hear the most absurd and ridiculous lies people ever heard from their significant others, leading them to ask:

The key to a healthy relationship is honesty, barring of course covering up a surprise which will make your partner happy.

And when the only way to stay in a relationship is through lies and deceit, it's probably time to start re-evaluating how well things are going.

Ironically, that's when it becomes time to really be "honest" with yourself.
