El Presidente Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 We all tell little white lies in marriage (how many drinks you had, you were forced to go to dinner for work reasons, she jumped on you and it took all your power to get her off). I am going to ask two questions (topic of a recent discussion between local FOH friends). On a scale of one to ten (1-10) )....with 10 being the highest Equate 1-10 as a percentage..ie a 7 = 70%. 1. How much about you does your wife know? 2. How much about you do your closest friends know? Ken and Smithy can substitute wife.... for mother ;-)
Ken Gargett Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 1. substitute who you like and the answer is still zero. 2. too much. and aren't we having a busy morning.

cohiba Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 Wife = 70% Friends = 95% little devil on my shoulder = knows to much!
KB24 Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 1. 93% 2. 93% Not too many skeletons in the closet except for the boxes of cigars I order and have delivered to my buddies so the wife doesn't know or the fact that I can probably name over 300 porn stars. -KB
cabaiguan juan Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 1.- 99, cuz there is no other way this would work, plus she finds most of it hilarious. 2.-100, cuz most of it is laughable Edit to say that there is definatly stuff i do not volunteer to either groups, but would answer if I was asked.
mbrody Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 1. About 83% - There are some things that I have not shared with her. Check my website history and you understand why I keep those things from her. Also, even though she sees my humidor, she has NO idea what I spend on Smokes. 2. About 83% - LOL, I keep the same things from my pals as well. 3. Online Forums Like FOH - 86% - easier to reveal SOME of those mysteries when we don't see each other face to face.
The Wise Old owl Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 Will the cost of my cigars rise exponentially with the amount of lies I tell? :crying:
El Presidente Posted October 30, 2008 Author Posted October 30, 2008 » Sorry, confidential information Wus Personally I work on the 80/20 rule....in reverse :-)
Habanos2000 Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 » » 1. How much about you does your wife know? » » 2. How much about you do your closest friends know? » 1. 8 for the wife, and that's for her own good. 2. 9 for the friends. And they're the main reason the wife only knows 80%
PDC1 Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 » 1. How much about you does your wife know? » » 2. How much about you do your closest friends know? [/b] 1. Too much! Which leads me to a question...... How come a woman can't remember where she put her car keys, 20 minutes ago, yet, she can easily recall something you said 20 years ago?? 2. Faaaaar too much!!
Spartan Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 1. I'm 100% honest BUT information is disseminated on a "need to know" basis :-D 2. 75%...loose lips sink ships :wink:
laficion Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 1. 75% 2. 85% Do you think I need a lawyer;-) cheers
android Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 1. Wife = 0% (Divorced her 10yrs. ago) 2. Friends = 10% (work on the need to know basis)
SmokinAl Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 » 1. How much about you does your wife know? » » 2. How much about you do your closest friends know? 1. If she knew about any of the stuff I'm proud of she'd never have married me in the first place. 2. Always maintain plausible deniability.
anacostiakat Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 I have no friends and I am divorced. ;-)
kilroy Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 My fiancee is at about a 95% area. She too looks into the humidor but has no idea about its value. And thats the only thing about me she doesn't know. My friends are at 70%... Its not that they don't need to know who I am to enjoy my company... Its that they DON'T need to know who I am in order to enjoy my company!

Tampa1257 Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 1. 0% = Divorced and GF's don't count as they are not committed yet 2. 85% = Friends know me a hell of a lot better. The "Real" me!
Wiley Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 I'm afraid I must be very boring, because I don't like or keep secrets. 10 and 10.
SmokinLightning Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 1. 9.9 We were freinds during my wilder days, so she knows everything... and now I behave so have nothing to hide! 2. 8 The closest friends are at an 8... everyone else is around a .5
El Presidente Posted October 31, 2008 Author Posted October 31, 2008 » I'm afraid I must be very boring, because I don't like or keep secrets. 10 » and 10. I don't "keep secrets" I "hide problems"
Shelby07 Posted October 31, 2008 Posted October 31, 2008 1. Over 100% which includes everything I know and some things I don't 2. It depends on whether or not they know my wife
tacmedic Posted October 31, 2008 Posted October 31, 2008 1-About 90%, and I wouldn't lie about any of it, it's just like already mentioned....it's only given out on a need to know basis. 2-Probably pretty close to 90% too... they are just some things that no one needs to know about;-)
