I know this one girl who has a brother in the military and likes military guys. I posted a picture of instagram dressed in a military uniform for a historical re-enactment group i am in. She asked if I was in they military - knowing that she likes military guys I am thinking of lying to her about it.
The only reason I am making this post is because I mostly speak truthfully to people because I do not particularly care about embellishing my accomplishments and prefer they speak for themselves. HOWEVER, I understand that the rules of love are different as per the saying, "All is fair in love and war".
What is the consensus about this?

If you have to fake the image of yourself to make her like you,you've already lost the game.

All is fair in love and war.
Girls do that shit all the time. The prisoners dilemma suggests that lying is also the best option with girls.

Lying about serving in the military is different than lying about some other profession. I can’t quite explain it, but the idea leaves an unsavory taste in my mouth.

No, no and no. Women ALWAYS find out the truth eventually ;D

The problem with confidence is that even if you have it, if you say/do the wrong things the girl will flake. One should try to optimize the amount of reshlts they get.

I thought that lying is simply using women's tools against them, like a 'flip-the-script' type of thing, no?

Pathetic. Find options.

Dont lie about being in the military. You have to earn the right to wear the uniform. You can lie about other things thou, sexuality is amoral.

Nobody here gives a fuck about the right you talk about. He shouldn't lie about it because it could harm him,not because it is unethical.

I don't understand what you mean.

If you could possibly be held accountable for your lie in the future then don't. If she is just a stranger who has no connection to your social circle and under no circumstances ever will then you can do it (although I personally don't see how it could truly benefit you in that situation). But if she is no stranger and has or can have in the future relations to your social circle (even if she is the friend of the friend of the girlfriend of one of your friends) and you lie about that you are gonna get shamed for it HARD and it will follow you.

Thanks for the good response. She is kind of in my social circle - we know each other from class/have mutual friends in the military. So I think you are right, it would be a bad idea to lie.
