Lying to your partner

[Pete]

Everyone in a long term relationship knows the rules about temptation etc...

But what if what you want takes over and you just have to succumb to your desires?




This (http://www.golfbidder.co.uk/product/389339/Titleist_690_.___MB.html) has just knocked me for six and made me think about making the first big lie in our relationship. We've had the "discussion" about a set of clubs but "we've" decided that it is too much cash that can be spent on other things.

Well I simply can't resist the sleek lines, the mirror finish and the feel I would get from hitting a sweet, forged five iron.

If I ever did get found out I could always quote the savings on cost new and the fact they look so damn good in the bag and would that would increase mine and in turn her social standing in certain circles.


All it would take would be a few financial adjustments here and there and it would be the perfect crime.


Anyone else made any such purchases that involved downright lying/sneakiness?
And more importantly, did you ever get found out?

[bighairyfaeleith]

She'll find out, not worth it mate.

However, next time, don't ask her, just spend the cash and take the flack for not asking her, better than being found out lying:wink:

Thats one magnificent metaphor. :greengrin

And for what its worth, your money, so long as the bills are covered, you spend it. In these days of aspirational equinamity, anything less would be offensive. :wink:

Are you sure about the bit in bold? Didn't you have a season ticket for ER that you're wife didn't know about? :greengrin

Just tell her there was a sale on and you got them half price, or you got the same clubs online at a snip of the price, she might think..........well at least he thought about saving some money.

I've never gotten this joint account and sharing money bollocks.

Have a joint account for rent, council tax and bills. Thats 50/50, the rest of my earnings, spend on what the hell I want. To hell with letting someone else dictate what you can and can't buy!

Grow a pair lads :greengrin

A boy i worked with a couple of years ago gave all of his wages to his (unemployed) girlfriend, who in turn allowed him to have 15 quid pocket money a week.

He was 28.

Boom! thats how life should be lived!

[The Green Goblin]

Unless times are very tight and you`re talking about spending your food money on a golf club, I would have thought that, as you worked the hours for it, you are entitled to buy it.

You could try and explain to her why it`s so important to you, so that she understands.

Bottom line: why would she want to stop you doing something which would make you happy anyway? :wink:

Go and buy it, without feeling guilty or apologising. :greengrin

Get a sports bike. Plenty opportunities for spending money and keeping it quiet.

That's the thing I hate about women, they remember everything.

And for the record it was two seasons before I got found out.:greengrin

...and the clubs are gone! Dilly-dallying:grr:

All for the best, Peter.

She's have bent your ear for a fortnight about the clubs, then (and ONLY then) remembered the season-ticket, and bent you ear about THAT for ANOTHER fortnight.

And then you'd have got sent on a guilt-trip every time you went off to play golf....

As King Solomon in his wisdom once said: "A continual dropping in a very rainy day and a contentious woman are alike..." (Proverbs 27.15)

Or alternatively: "It is better to dwell in a corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman in a wide house...." (Proverbs 21.9)

But then having 200 wives and 900 concubines complaining at him all day probably soured the poor chap's disposition somewhat.

Don't do it :bitchy:. While they look good on your arm and walking along hand in hand, they are just not worth the hassle in the long term.

Other blokes will want to handle them and finger them while drooling but if you don't give them a good crack out the screws, they just go flying in all different angles leaving you thinking how something so beautiful can bring you to your knees so easilly. Ultimately, you will wonder why you considered it in the first place. Stay away unless you genuinely think you can fully handle them. Also remember that if you knock them about a wee bit, they mark up like a peach:agree::greengrin
