I've told white lies to my wife recently and they backfired.
Why would you tell white lies to your wife?
It keeps our relationship interesting.
Lying to your wife is wrong. White lies are totally unnecessary and you should just be honest and not damage the trust between you.
Being too honest can also get married couples into trouble.
A successful marriage is based on trust and honesty. It's important to be honest to your partner because that's the basis of a strong and lasting marriage. Think about why you feel the need to lie to her and take steps to address those issues.
