She'd tell you a million things to make you believe her undying love for you. TOI on what 'lies' in her moment of truth. Keep your liar meters on!

From what is known of peeking into most women's diaries, the life of a woman seems synonymous with the life of a secret. What goes on inside a girl's mind usually fails to agree with her heart, leading her to hide a few things, not because she's afraid, but because she loves those things in her personal space.

A survey carried out on a social media website asked women - single and committed - 'what would you hide from your boyfriend'? At first, the responses were few and far between. Most women refrained from opening up about their hidden secrets, which clearly indicated that there's a lot to hide! But, as their masks started to unveil, the poll witnessed a rapid fire of some of the most outrageous answers given by bold and fearless ladies. Here are the top five answers that were found on the survey that every man should be reading...

Flings-capades
While you may feel that your girl has divulged her most intimate experiences with you, she might be hiding her share of "fun experiments". Most women are afraid of being judged for their character, while others felt that sharing their 'dirty little secrets' would make their current partner insecure and jealous. Most men want to know, "Am I better than him?" and women find this very annoying.

Off the record girl-talk
You will never be able to break into the most classified realm of girl talk (unless you goundercover into a girls' room) where some of the most sizzling, spicy secrets are openly discussed with graphic juicy details! Most women who gave their opinions said that they would never tell their friend's secrets because it has nothing to do with their relationship with the guy. The inside scoop of a ladies night is your girl's place to vent. Sorry, men not allowed!

Make-Up kits
If you ever wondered how she manages to look so pretty all day long, it is obvious that you haven't seen where she keeps all of her cosmetic back-up. She wants you to keep wondering where the prettiness comes from and how it never goes. While some of you may be smart enough to know it's the make-up on her skin, your girl might prefer to cover up her anti-ageing cream, her under-eye make up or her pimple solutions!

Heart-tales of her ex
Virginia Woolf so aptly quoted, "Love, the poet said, is a woman's whole existence."You know that she had a life pre-you. You know that she didn't spend all her days in a girl dorm before you saved your damsel in distress. And now you want to know whether she still feels anything about her past. However, a woman's heart will have the deepest of feelings that even she would never be able to decode. From what we gathered of the survey results, most women hide their true feelings about the ex-beau to save their current boyfriend from getting hurt. Interestingly, there's a flipside to this story! Some women said that they purposefully mentioned a few feelings about their ex-es to let the current partner know that the bar is set high for him.

Feelings about his kin
Every time a woman has expressed her feelings about his sister being petty or his mother being overtly inquisitive, she's been accused of being insensitively provocative! It's as if she's trying to put him in a situation where he would have to make a choice. Over the years though, the entire race of fairer sex has become cautious of loosening their tongue over their true feelings for his clan members. The reason they all gave for camouflaging their opinions about his family - 'We don't want to be the ones to cause damage to the relationship!
