Dear Queenie,
Why do men always lie to women and then say the women are stupid for believing them? They say they love you, but as soon as they get what they want, they can’t wait to get away from you. That isn’t love.
Queenie, why are men such liars?—Disillusioned
Dear Disillusioned,
Many people will say whatever they think the other person wants to hear, in order to get what they want. Some women pretend to like sex to keep their men interested, which is the same kind of lie as a man pretending he loves a woman so she will go to bed with him.
When a man says, “I love you. Let’s go to bed,” the best answer a woman can give is, “If you love me, you won’t ask me to sleep with you when I don’t want to.” His response will tell her whether he really loves her or just wants sex. If it’s the latter and she still goes to bed with him, she is stupid indeed.
