Is honesty the best policy? In the long run probably yes but it takes a precise judgment to decipher what areas of honesty are worth telling and which areas are worth keeping to yourself. Here's a brief start.
Areas that you must be truthful are the following. Make sure you are always honest about whether you've cheated or not. Kind of obvious but a definite no in terms of lying about it, you will always get found out. Always be honest about where you have been unless it's going to incriminate you and get you into trouble, and then keep quiet. Always be truthful, oh you know what it's a lot easier if I focus on what you should lie about here goes.
If she says "does my butt look big in this" Always no. When she asks you what you think of her friends, you always lie about it and always ensure that you compliment them to the level that is ok with her, never compliment them physically otherwise you will get "oh right well if you like her so much why don't you just marry her". When you are in the local supermarket and she catches looking at another woman, when she asks just say she was carrying a baby but never tell the truth, that you were really checking her out. Always lie about whether someone was flirting with you; it's definitely not worth the trouble of explaining your only friends and it means nothing, just lie saves questions. Always lie about her family; her mom is lovely and her dads conversations about long fishing trips aren't boring or slightly homosexual, all that bonding with two men and no showers hmmm.
Another thing you must always lie about is her cooking, if she has slaved away all day over a meal for you your liking eat even if you're loathing it, a big must this. So basically only tell the truth when it doesn't get you into trouble. It is also worth noting that when your are out and about shopping always ensure that if the size she wants doesn't fit her blame it on the shop and their dodgy sizing's. It's always heir fault never your girlfriends. Honesty is definitely not the best policy.
