It means that man would rather people talk lies about him then have the truth known by everyone when he didn't want anyone to know. In other words, people don't care much if rumors or lies are spread about them cause they know they aren't true. However, when someone has a secret that's true, they don't want people to know cause it would be embaressing.

Should you tell your ex the truth or keep lying to him?

Opinion 1:I think it depends on the situation really... like if it's bad you should tell him sooner or later... I think that you like should just tell him the truth and you want to wait to tell him you should. but you should find a way to tell him the truth:)Opinion 2:The truth is what I would prefer.Some times the truth can be painful.It is never the less much better to get the truth rather than get a lie and suspect it is a lie. Honesty is the foundation of any relationship.If you were honest when getting together, why be dishonest when going apart!By being honest, at least you will feel better yourself and also your ex can not truthfully tell people that you are a liar.By telling the truth, maybe he/she will meet you with understanding rather than anger, hopelessness and possibly true deep sorrow.
