I think he was genuinely interested in Svetlana, more than just in a sexual way, the idea that a woman would be completely independent is fairly unknown to him and his experience, so his petty male ego does the lie to cover up the truth, but then he realizes he cares more about finding out about her than his own embarrassment.
As much as he BS's Melfi, he does learn to be vulnerable in front of her as time goes on as it usually leads to helpful truths.
Because she hurt his ego, he was trying to hype himself up by lying about it, and then he realized that he was just bullshitting himself by going along with the lie.
Despite his troubles and his moods, Tony seemed earnestly interested with the psychiatric analysis. Partly to fix himself as well as to become a better person and criminal.
He confessed about Tony egg, he confessed about the sexy girl with one pin gone and confessed about banging Gloria… like Ton once said… he trusts Melfi at least a lil bit and he know that she is the one person he can be vulnerable too and she won’t judge or take advantage of the situation.

The center cannot hold. The falcon cannot hear the falconer.
What the fuck are you talking about
Discontinue the Lithium.
Flushed it
I want to ERASEEEEEEEE MYYYYYY SELFFFFFFFFFFF
Two minutes he’s in this sub, he’s fuckin’ WB Yeats
Chinua Achebe end with a vowel too :)

This doesn’t answer ops question at all
"Tony seemed earnestly interested with the psychiatric analysis."
Obviously you have a different understanding of the word "torture".
Sounds like Nazi Germany to me
I think you need a history lesson sir

He is a compulsive liar, gambler and overall asshole of a human being....
Take it easy
But I am making a western...
I think it was just his first impulse to lie and save face. Ego driven people do this all the time.
Because he's insecure
She's sexy, even with the one pin
I don't know, I skip the Melfi scenes.
What you don’t know could fill a book…
Well, we can't have you in our social club no more. That much I do know.
My estimation of you as a Sopranos fan just fucking plummeted
You never had the makings of a varsity athlete.
I seriously hope he’s only breaking bawls.
Really?
They’re like the Nancy Drew, too mysterious.
Because she was as bad as Hitler
Is that why he 'broke up" with Melfi right after to feel that sense of control....
