Where Do You Stand: Lying to Your Friends About Your Sex Life

September 5, 2008

I'm all for a little embellishing when it comes to chatting about what happens in the bedroom, but how do you feel about outright lying? Are there times when it's appropriate to fib about what guy you've done it with, how often you and your man have sex, or how good it is? Have you ever felt the need to lie to your friends in order to impress them? Of course lying about such a private matter won't really hurt anyone, but tell me, where do you stand when it comes to lying to your friends about your sex life?

If someone wants to brag about some sexual experience I just listen and smile. Young women tend to keep closed about sex. There are too many judgements made against them to open up, even with friends. It's too bad. With me it's always older single friends that have blurted out how great sex was with so and so. That he had some kind of God like body and that no one else could have possibly had this experience. Then an endless description of his size. It sort of makes me think this is used as some sort of competition with me. It makes me think thier exaggerating the whole thing. I have a few married friends I love dearly and once in a while they give me too much information, but it only makes me laugh. It has crossed my mind that they might be lying just a tad, but I don't care one way or the other. I might have confided a few times how great it was with a boyfriend over drinks a few times in my life. It was no lie.

oh I hav been a big liar. My friends believe me to be a virgin in my 2.5 yrs old relationship. Even when I visit him, I'd tell them how sweetly we spent the night chit-chatting out in the balcony. I once dared to open up to one of my friends but we are not on talking terms any more for some other reasons around the same time. Presently, my female best friend thinks I have only kissed and hugged him. It is rather okay for me than to be given weird looks of the odd one out among other virgins. It is definitely embarrassing. Though my male best friend has all reasons to believe the intensity of my relationship with my boyfriend. There are subtle terms that he uses to indicate "I know what you must have been doing last night"

most of my friends are male, and they just don't wanna hear about it, when my friends do wanna know I tend to ask them why they want to know instead of telling them.

I try to keep that information between the boyfriend and I. If a friend asked, I might share a few details, and I will say how amazing it always is, but I don't really need to go any further. Plus, my friends wouldn't really ask, and I would never ask them. Some things are supposed to be private. But, I wouldn't lie about it, I would probably say a few things and then change the subject!

I like to keep my sex life as private as possible. I only feel comfortable talking about it to one of my friends beyond the admission of " I'm not a virgin", and I never feel like I need to lie to her about anything. I have, however, led friends I have who are ultraconservative to believe I am innocent when I'm not. :P

i don't like to talk about my sex life with anyone - so it's not necessarily lying but i'll completely withold things from them. i think that it's really something personal - and i don't like to talk about many personal things. i have co-workers and friends who have no problem talking about things, like how often, what they do, where they do it, and for myself - i would rather that people think that i'm not having sex than for me to talk about it.

I don't lie, but we rarely talk about it anyway.

I sometimes lie about it. lol. Not everything though. I am very open about my sexuality but sometimes I do for example, when i start dating, I tell them we dont have sex until like a month or two later when we actually do before that time. but everythign else, I am open about it.

I don't understand why you would lie, but then again I don't really talk about my sex life with my friends. I find it's the kind of thing that is better when everyone isn't comparing. I'm very happy and that's all they need to know. now if a friend had a specific issue I would talk withher and maybe share details to give advice, but I don't want to think about my friends havign sex and I don't want them thinking about me having sex

We don't really talk about it so it's not an issue. I did withhold the fact that in my last relationship the sex died. That info is for my therapist only.

My friends and I don't really have these conversations. When it has come up, I don't feel the need to lie. If we're actually having problems or something, I just omit that. I'm not going to lie and say it's so great if it's not, I'll just leave it out of the conversation.

I don't discuss my sex life with anyone except my husband.

There's really only one friend I confide in about my sex life. And why would I lie to her? I'm not trying to impress her.

I dont talk to anyone but my beau about our sex life. Seems weird for me that someone would lie about it? Its such an issue that doesnt affect anyone but you...

In high school I lied about being a virgin because all my friends were virgins (or at least that's what they told me). I only really talk to a few friends about my sex life.

I don't feel the need to discuss my sex life with my friends. What goes on is solely between my husband and I. When you're young and dating, I think it's normal to divulge tidbits to your friends, and lying about it is just plain stupid. What's the point?
