@DA21 – All successful relationships are based on some form of deceit. Whether you’re fooling yourself or you’re fooling each other, the benefits are mutual…until someone gets a little too brave. You’d be better off promising to yourself that you’ll never accept the promises of another again.

Been there, suffered that. As Shepard pointed out all relationships have a bit of lies on it, and maybe lie is not the word, i’d say it’s more hope, or illusion. And i think that in most cases (or in all) a relationship wouldn’t work without those.
I’ve tried being completely honest a couple of times and the outcome was always the same: i didn’t promise the world, so i was dumped and replaced for people that did (even if it was obvious it was a lie). Sadly most people prefer to live on futile promises than to face reality.
