I have kept something from someone I love. It wasnt anything big it was just something I never wanted him to know. I finally told him today and he got really mad and said that I been lying to him for the last 3years. I never knew he would take it that way. So I guess when your hiding something from someone then your lying even if it dont seem like you are.

Yah. you might feel as if its just a petty lie, but to the other person involved its a big thing. And knowing that you've hiding it for three long years added the pain.
Thanks for the reply.:P

Whatever others call it, for me it is still a lie. And it's true, when someone lies the cause is either you have something that you don't want the other to know because it might hurt him or you don't tell the truth when ask because you are afraid the other will get angry with you or he will get hurt. Either way, it's still good to tell the truth. As we all know, the truth will set us free.

Right lie is still a lie. No matter how grave your lie is, its still isn't the truth. Like you said, Truth will set us free. Whatever things that you have done, no matter how wrong it is, be brave enough to take responsibility. Your mistake, Your responsibility.
Thanks for the reply.

I didn't think it was a lie that I didn't tell my ex that I had just broken up with my ex. I didn't think he needed to know that, but a friend told me in a sense I was lying to him, and when I told him and asked him if it was lying to him he said no. If you aren't being asked something outright I don't think it is lying unless you are purposly not telling someone that is needed to be said.

hmmnn. point taken
But wont it also hurt because your lying about it..
I think there always a misconception about white lies, I also do that but when it gets bigger, and harder to defend, that's when problem starts.
You dont want to hurt somebody.What if, coz of that white lie, he/she suddenly found out the truth wont it hurt more.
