<human>: Since we started dating my boyfriend has consistently told me minor white lies.

 He seems to not what to disappoint me/others ever, so if I ever invite him, or if friends invite him to something he doesn't want to come to, he tells us the most respectable answer (I am spending time with my grandparents/ I am studying/ I will be working sooo late in the lab) but then I find out later he was doing something else (Watching the game/ tv show/ chillin at his house). 

The thing is I have no problem with him just being like, I feel like staying in tonight. I would rather he just be honest!

Its especially hard because I often catch him in the lies by overhearing conversations with him and others, or looking at his phone while he texts others (I will see him texting someone about how he spent all last night watching the game, when say he told me that he was at the lab all night) so its hard for me to confront him without seeming like I am snooping. The thing is its not really snooping because hes texting them in front of me.

I also feel a little insulted he doesn't think I have caught onto him. He is not doing a great job of lying and its been very easy to hear inconsistencies in his story thus far. He is not even going through the effort of lying well and he thinks hes fooling me.

I just wish he was more honest with me. I just feel like its awkward and crazy to call him out on all these little lies, when it seems like hes just telling them to keep me happy. What do I do?

Give me a shortened version of the text
<bot>: Boyfriend tells little white lies a lot to keep me happy. Should I be worried? Should I confront him about them or let them slide?
