I believe every love affair hinges on a trilemma. There are always three things at stake: personal honesty, sincere support of the relationship, and intelligence. You could only commit to two, but never all three. If you are honest and smart, you are not supportive of the relationship. If you are honest and supportive, you are not very smart. If you are smart and supportive of the relationship, you are surely not honest to yourself.
