Re-post of one of my oldies.

When dealing with women in the sexual marketplace, the inevitable question surrounding honesty with your plates/LTR/wife is a major thing to consider. Should you be a confident, straightforward man who tells your girls what the deal is, or do you conduct yourself as a lying, immoral, dark-triad asshole?

The answer is the latter. You will benefit far more from your options by being a scheming, Machiavellian man. You are best positioned to draw the most value possible in this position because you are in sole possession of the 'truth', or in this case, what exactly is going on in your wheelhouse.

Women NEVER want full disclosure. Her imagination is the greatest tool in your game arsenal (Rollo). Honesty, dignity, and trust are masculine values that women do not have to appreciate and never will. They are the very tools to manipulate you when displayed to women. They only praise us for it when it serves their interests, which is why it is instilled in us by our mothers at such a young age. These traits are only acknowledged and hold value in the company of men, which is why there is much debate between us about whether you should keep your trap shut with your women about other women you are seeing. The men who tell you not to lie and that it's Beta are ultimately virtue signalling/white knighting because they hate your sexual strategy as it offends their ego invested beliefs (and is probably far more successful). Ignore such drivel, and don't give women 'back' her imagination by giving her your honesty. Both become tools she uses against YOU; honesty to keep you in line, and her (now shifted) imagination on that new Chad she eye fucked at the fitness club.

When weighing your options, you will never be able to measure the true investment of your particular girl if she knows that she is one of many. One might argue that if she knows she is easily replaceable, she will try harder to win you over, but ultimately, you shouldn't need other women on display to do this if your game is optimized and you are high SMV. That's why we say LTRs and Marriage are the redpill on hard mode. The real interaction there is between you and her, and there are no other active girls being fucked, so her true behavior comes out and your frame is rigorously tested. The situation isn't much different if she thinks she's the 'only one' while you continue to pickup and fuck plates. The key point is that if she knows there is other women, there will be more shit testing, probing for commitment, and mate guarding bullshit. Also, it will be harder for her to walk away from you since her level of investment in you will be higher, resulting in effective 'boomerang' game. Your dread game will prompt her with the competition anxiety needed for tingles without other girls being acknowledged in the dynamic, which gives her less ammo to use against you (Go call Jill maybe she'll put up with you blah blah). Her imagination of your other girls is far more powerful than her knowing for sure through your disclosure.

Note that this doesn't mean you ever have to lie in the first place. You should only lie when you are confronted if you cannot brush off the shit tests any longer. Even if she has proof of you fucking with another girl, you must always deny and make up an explanation that her hamster can work with. If she is invested in you and you're high SMV, she will often put the blame on herself, especially If you can shame the shit out of her so she'll never question it again. Remember, her preaching about honesty is only to get you to show your hand so she can fuck you in the ass with your own masculine values in a pseudo-pegging frame power grab. A woman is never entitled to the truths of how you conduct your life. Treat her like the police and STFU.

To put it more simply, who is going to add more value to your life than just sex? 5 girls who know they're just booty calls, or 5 girls that all see you as Chad and THINK they've 'locked you down?'

Sexuality strategy is amoral. Don't make it moral.
