'How do I get out of this?': Dude lies about piano-playing abilities to impress woman, date's family expects them to star in a concert

This messy lie snowballed and this dude has realized there's no getting out of it. 

Every person in the world has lied at some point. There's no getting around it: whether you tell a white lie to make someone feel better, or lie to your boss about turning in a project, or tell your friends you're on your way to the function while you're still getting dressed, these little fabrications add up over time. They say that it's best not to lie because when you do, you have to remember to cover your tracks. It's a lot of mental energy to keep lying over and over again. 

This person is learning that lesson the very hard way this week. In a post that I really hope is real, and which the internet is monitoring with bated breath, this person reveals the whopper of a lie they told to a woman. You must read it for yourself, because it is hilarious.

This dude reveals that they're going to meet up with a date they met online. They bonded over the Grateful Dead, which is when u/splitopenandmelt11 lied to their new love interest. They told this woman they were "Jeff Chimenti's piano teacher," although they literally know zero songs on the piano. This is already a super dumb fib, because what did the OP expect would happen the first time their date wants to be serenaded on the piano? I'm sure the OP had their reasons, and the internet can't wait to find out what happens next. 

After that, check out one woman who single-handedly caught her company in a financial lie.
