Lying creates a wall between you and your spouse that is definitely felt. There is something going on between the two of you even if it is as simple as you’re angry at yourself for lying and you eventually take your anger out on yourself or on your spouse. Your wife absolutely has no way to process a lie. When you choose to lie to your wife she feels disrespected and hurt because you didn’t trust her enough to give her the truth. It’s like saying to her, “I don’t trust you and I don’t care.” You are rejecting your wife’s person when you lie to her and create intentional pain in your marriage. So guys, if you want to do something your wife won’t understand and is guaranteed to be hurt in your marriage, lie.
