I went to get my hair cut the other day and was looking through a women's fashion magazine called "Vivi" at the salon. Towards the back, there was an article about how to tell if a guy is lying to you, while at the same time making sure your lies fool him. Now let that idea just sink in for a moment.
It included tips about, "how to cover up that you lied when he asks you point blank." For example, if he asks, "Did you cheat on me?" You say "Yes. (pause) No wait--I mean some guy asked me out to dinner, so I thought that may be considered 'cheating.'" (In this scenario you did, in fact, cheat on your boyfriend, but now he thinks you are just stupid and don't actually know what that word means.)
There was also a list of ways to efficiently snoop around on his cell phone to find out if he is cheating:
1. Buy the same type of phone as him, so you can "accidentally" mix them up.
2. Buy him an app as an excuse to get him to tell you his password.
3. Remember that smart phones can access PC email, so don't forget to check all his accounts.
4. Look through the photos he has on the phone to see if there are any other girls in them.
5. Steal the memory card from out of his phone.
So everyone is always lying to each other, and they don't trust each other in the first place anyway...
No wonder Japan is a "cheating culture" where women accept that it is normal for their boyfriend to cheat on them, and men (as well as women) use that as an excuse to keep cheating. What I want to know is why does anyone bother getting mad about it then?
