“I told my girl my dog died to get out of going on a date with her.” “I faked an orgasm and said sex was great when really I just wanted it to be the hell over with.” These are some of the lies members of Dr. Phil’s audience admit they’ve told. Do you ever lie? A recent survey revealed that men lie six times a day, but women only lie three times a day. Dr. Phil gets to the bottom of why people tell tales and how to put an end to the falsehoods. Relationship-Ending Lie Erin admits that lying to her ex-husband, Eric, destroyed their marriage and ultimately led to their divorce. Is she ready to be honest, or is she still hiding the truth?

Find out the biggest lies men and women tell. It’s Your Turn Dr. Phil always asks his guests to bare their souls and tell him the unvarnished truth. Now, it’s his turn.
