what is the biggest lie you have ever told? and can people tell when your lying? this is something I really have to think about when telling the biggest lie. I like to think I am a good liar. if my mom asks me if I'm upset or if something is bothering me I will tell her I am fine cause I don't want to get into it with her, there are times she has really upset me like I will go in my room or bathroom and have myself a good cry then wipe the tears away and come out and pretend like everything is fine
We all lie, tell fibs, manipulate and/or dilute the truth according to circumstance - I've never told a 'Bad' lie - to hurt, get others into trouble, or to gain sexual affection - it's not me (too honest to take advantage? - sorry can't/won't do it!) Though I've not always given a true truth on several occasions - in order to spare feelings, allow a smoother flow of circumstances and lift the spirit of those you most need it. It really isn't being a 'Goody two shoes' - it's just that I feel integrity coupled with sensitivity are key qualities of conscience
Silence, when people around me are talking about how important it is to have strong family values and live a traditional lifestyle and go to church every Sunday. They usually assume that I agree, and I stay out of a bunch of huge arguments.
I'm a TERRIBLE liar. I can't do it. I can't even think of a big lie that I've told. I'm more of one of those brutally honest people. I lied to my mom when I was young and got caught and I think it scarred me for life. I never want anyone to be that disappointed in me ever again.
If you tell a lie you have to remember what you said and sometimes that is very hard to do. If you tell the truth about something you accutaly lived it out and you are less likely to tell it a different way latter down the line because you can remember it better. Have I told lies? Yes Big ones? Yes Was the gain worth it? NO! Recently got caught in a big lie and confessed to it, Things have been a lot better ever since. One or two of you know all about it.
Mine is pretty much the same. If I hear someone say something completely wrong or bigoted, I will usually bite my tongue and keep quiet unless I think that their opinion is based on ignorance and giving them a bit of information might change it. Otherwise I just try to keep silent and not talk. Some people probably have no idea about my real view on things... mostly family I would think.
That's what I've always thought. I lied when I was younger but the truth is a lot easier to remember.
