I don't really see the point with lying about that. Especially if nothing happens.
This is not to say that I am above lying. Just not about that particular issue.

This reminds me that shortly after my divorce, a college ex started calling me. He would call me at odd times, sometimes drunk, and ask to talk about how I had the courage to get out of my marriage and start discussing details of how unhappy he was in his marriage and how I had broken his heart, etc. He went to great lengths to discuss ways I could contact him without his wife knowing. The kicker -- his wife gave birth to their second child just weeks before these calls started. I was nothing other than polite (and maybe "distant"), but the entire time he talked to me, I thought to myself "what a sleazeball". And "thank god I live several thousand miles away from him now". I'm sure in his mind contact with an ex was wrong, but it was obviously the kind of contact he was initiating, not the fact of contact itself.
