Lie to Me!

I despise lying! I give exceptions only to surprise parties, Santa, the Easter Bunny, and the Tooth Faerie. Even then, I feel guilty about it. I don't take very kindly to being lied to. I went through it for far too many years with nuckfuts, and even my father. It irks me to no end, and gets me frustrated with angry emotions and hurt. I haven't heard of the program you're referring to here, but it does sound like it could be interesting.

My daughter watched that show last week and really enjoyed it. I came into the room around the end but it did look like a good show. I think she just wanted to watch the show because of the man, not the content No, I don't think I would want to have his ability, it might be too scary to know every time someone was lying to you.

I watched some of that show the other day. The only thing I hate about that show is that on the previews they say how people will lie like 10 times in a 3 minute conversation or something like that and that the question is not if someone is lying it's what they're lying about or something to that effect. That ticks me off because I always try to tell the truth. I don't like to lie. My parents used to always think I lied about stuff when I didn't...then I started lying to them because I figured hey what the heck, they don't believe me when I tell the truth. But, I don't do that anymore. I like to be honest and I think it's important to be honest. The only time I really ever lie is to protect someone's feelings from being hurt because I hate to hurt peoples' feelings. I don't know if I would need to take lessons from this guy, although I'm sure you could learn some cools stuff. I am a very good judge of character and I pick up on body language pretty well. I can usually tell if someone is the real deal or if they're pulling my chain. It's a good thing to be able to do.

heck yes i wud its so fun if i cud tell

I love this show. Tim Roth was a good pick for the lead. He can be so deadpan and yet funny. I hope it has a long run (and the Mentalist too) As for the serious side of your question...I think motive has a lot to do with how much I mind. We all do it from time to time one way or another. White lies, half truths, omission. It's human nature. We want to spare someone else's feelings, avoid conflict, a fight, don't make waves, project a confidence we don't actually feel, provide encouragement even while we secretly worry, allow for differences in taste etc. For example if my friend wanted to do her house over in a retro 70's style with avacodo greens, golds, orange, browns I'd hate it. I hated that look then, still do now, but if that's her taste and she's happy with it, who am I to burst her happy bubble? I wouldn't push my distaste of the color scheme on her. I'd be lying by ommission while I praised the positives...what a good job she did coordinating it, bringing all the elements together, finding the formica table, the shell lampshades etc. I'd mean that truthfully too, but someone like Roth's character would probably see my distaste for it written on my face.

I despise liars! i hate them with a passion they are the lowest forms of life on this earth they arent intelligent enough to research and find the truth so they make up lies to make them look superior its a shame because everyone always eventually sees them for the scum that they truly are

haha getting some mylotters caught out by their lies... Yeah im sure there would be quiet a few... I think I'm pretty good at reading body language. I love watching this show i think its pretty cool. He makes me laugh at some of the things he does.It also helps others to learn to read people more easily. I'm pretty good at picking a lie.. My son can't seem to pass one by me.

Usually... people who lies... always get caught out. In order to cover a lie... you need to make another lie. And it becomes endless... until you don't know what you are saying anymore... and start contradicting yourself. That's when you get caught. Because of it... I use a different techmic. I prefer not to lie. So if I don't want to answer a question which might compromise me... I'll be evasive and I will change of subject. As for lies in order to gain something by deceipt... I consider myself far too honest to do such things. On the contrary... I am often my own worse ennemy for being too honest... and I am exploited as a result. Then you have the people who repeat a lie so often that they start believing their own lies. That's quite an incredible thing to watch. But not so funny when you are the victim of that person.

LOL I think I'd wear myself out watching ppl to see if they are lying to me. Out of the ppl around me I can pretty much tell who I can believe and who I can't. I also tend to follow my Hubby's way of thinking (he worked as a Corrections Officer for 17 years) TRUST BUT VERIFY. [b]~~AT PEACE WITHIN~~ **STAND STRONG AND TRUST IN GOD**[/b]

You don't need lessons....just go to your local library and read up on body language. There are a couple of very tried and true ways to tell if someone is lying. I could always always tell when my ex was lying without one shred of evidence. It used to make him crazy.

I can't live with liars, and its really hard when you have a house full of teenagers belive me! You don't know where you stand, i'd rather live with a thief, i can hide my purse and valuables!!

I watched the show "lie to me" yesterday, and i'm eager for the next episode. I'm afraid that maybe everybody lied and had been lied to, but what counts is why he or she lied to you. It's easy to tell whether she or he is lying to you, while it's hard to find out the reason which makes he or she lie to you.

Liars disgust me. I'm usually pretty good at figuring them out. I haven't watched the show, it is likely opposite something I watch on another channel.

Last December, I was also a victim of a liar, he is a big time liar maybe we can call it pathological liar. He is a consistent liar, the more he made an excuse that more it made me feel how big time liar he is. If there is a liar there is a thief so I call this man also a thief. People like them have no place on earth. I just wish they will die according to the punishment of the Lord where they took advantage of the goodness of the people who cares. If I can read between the lips or I can observe gestures, id ont think that people can cheat me. I am by nature helpful, but now, I have to think million times before helping someone. Liars makes me seek. I was able to prove that the man is a consistent liar to everyone. He dont deserve anyone's trust and respect because he is a liar. How it feels to be a liar to everyone, surely it hurts. But he deserves it for chaeting the people who trusted him. I do lie but not to the extend that I will use and hurt other people. Oh I feel terrible everytime I think of him.

Personally I hate liars as well. I know there are many everywhere you go anymore and the problem is so many of them are so Good at it they end up not knowing they are doing it, and if you really ask them they do not know what the Truth is on anything either. I wonder if some of the people in life we always catch lying if they really knew what they were saying, and caught in those lies I wonder what would happen then?

I can't lie if I want to, every time something will go wrong but as the victim of the lies of liars I see where they are above others and that disturbs me when they are telling blatant lies and allowed to get away with their lying behavior. I can take a step back and learn using my past experiences and envision a situation where things are not adding up. Others on this thread have contributed where someone has made a false claim, I've even met people who brag about how they have lied to gain this affection or that, (I used to be a participant at Match.com, I met a guy that met a lady from there he was trying to give me pointers on how to attract a nice lady... I didn't employ his technique.) I'm not going to lie and misrepresent myself to anyone. There is a lot more magic in telling the truth than there is in telling a lie. Each individual in a relationship to be a couple has a role to play. When lying enters into the relationship one has to withdraw I had to take a step back and look with a new perspective. Sometimes things just jump out at you... You just know!

I do not like being lied to either. I hve told my children over and over that you will always get into more trouble for lying than you will anything from me. I have watched this show. I watched it last week. I love the show itself. I would love to take pointers from him. I have learned with my children that if you ask them "Why are you lying to me." If they are lying they will break down and say cause I did not want to get in trouble. Of course, then they are in trouble. Noone likes liars. I would not my daughter play with one girl because she did nothing but lie and after about a week of that I would not let her be around that girl. If my children lie to me it is automatic trouble and if adults just keep lying I just cut my ties. Funny that this has come up it made me think. Me and my cousin were talking today and she asked me why does my sister have on Facebook that she is married with 2 kids. Because she is not married and she only has one child. I do not understand why she put this because it is not true and it does annoy me that she has done this. Why lie and definately why lie about something so stupid??

I've been a people watcher for most of my life. I can generally tell when someone is lying or not, as long as I am in front of them, watching not only their facial expressions but also their body language. Some people are harder to read than others, though. If I am able to watch them for awhile, I can generally find things about them that indicate a lie. My ex's eyebrows would twitch whenever he was lying. Obviously, I did not know that early enough, since I married him but, after being with him awhile, I knew that whenever his eyebrows were twitching as he talked, he was lying. Still, I am fooled sometimes. I would love to know that man's secrets, even though I have no idea as to what man you're speaking of! LOL Yes, I hate liars. How do I deal with them? I'll usually try to 'catch' them at their own game by asking question after question until the lie is revealed. It's either that or I simply turn and walk away. I refuse to listen to a liar.

Hi annie! I hate liars! I am pretty good at picking up on if someone is lying! My father was a pathological liar so I had plenty of practice! I can't deal with someone that lies! I had a girlfriend who constantly lied about stupid stuff and I finally had it with her! In fact I started a discussion about it in November! I have not spoken to her since! I don't want to deal with anyone who can't tell the truth!

I am not a fan of liars at all. I have also watched this show and think that it is a really good show. I would of course really like to have this ability. My husband is really good at telling whether or not people are lying but not quite like this guy has though.
