"Men normally lie to avoid getting into awkward situations," Hemlatha explains. "Men are less comfortable with intimacy, therefore a male may usually lie about his conquests—whether it's with women or professional successes." Hemlatha also says that men tend to lie for entertainment purposes. She adds that men may also lie to get attention from others, such as when someone asks him about his ex-girlfriend(s). In conclusion, men tend to lie because they feel uncomfortable talking about their feelings and experiences.
