Abstract :
The present study aimed to investigate sociological aspect of lying among couples (legal marriage and permanent marriage) in Tehran. For this aim, qualitative method as well as content analysis by detailed interview were used. The statistical population of research consisted all couples with legal marriage in Tehran. Purposive sampling was used to interview with 20couples (10male and 10female) who hold permanent marriage. After doing 17interview, target comments were perceived but for making sure, researcher continued interview with 20couples.Collecting and analyzing data were done by the qualitative method and analyzing content with six stages as follow: initial coding, searching and recognizing content, designing of content network, analyzing of content , and writing report. Findings obtained from interviews showed that factors such as feeling of insecurity, economic dependence on wife, patriarchal relationship, gaining satisfaction and making wife happy, concealment in marriage, and lack of understanding and lack of trust to each other may create lying phenomenon among couples. Given to that rate of lying is so high which its main reason is complete relationship with all aspects between wife and husband so there is a great gap between the ideal picture of a family/ spouse relationship and the real world of couple relationship.
