Entry #10- half way done!!

Page 80 & 81-(last paragraph on 80 to end of 81)

Okay so now I'm confused! Are the stories O'Brien was telling all lies? Or were some of the details just exaggerations? I was thinking that maybe he is saying that when a woman or listener doesn't understand and says she likes the story, that is when he will tell her it was all a lie. He says that if someone likes the story then they weren't listening. He wants them to hear his love story, not the war story, but the war story is what he is telling. And what does he mean by "the real truth" on page 81? What is the "real truth"? Hopefully O'Brien will explain what he means in greater detail cause I don't like being confused! If anyone knows then please fill me in!
