Are you lied most of the time?

I do lie people really dont care if some one is honest. but it does not mean that i always lie. in my childhood i was very frequent. but now when ever i lie i feel guilty so it is enough in today's world in my view, But i try to avoid most of the time to speak when there is need to tell a lie. i prefer to be with truth

You're asking if we can prevent being lied to, or if we can prevent telling white lies?I'll try to answer both. No, we can never prevent being lied to. All we can do is chose our friends wisely. That said, some people are excellent liars. They blur the lines between truth and falsehood. We can know them for years and never realize it. When we do, we have to make a decision about whether the friendship is worth saving. For me, usually, it's not. Others are more forgiving than me. It all depends on the kinds of lies they tell. When it gets to the point where trust becomes an issue, that's a problem. Ask yourself, and answer yourself honestly: can I trust this person? If the answer is no, perhaps it's best to distance yourself from them. As for white lies, I'm not quite sure I would ever want them to go away. What one person calls a white lie, I call decorum or consideration. If I go out with my girlfriend and she doesn't look as good as she normally might, but asks me how I think she looks, do I want to be brutally honest? Do I want to be honest at all? Does it really matter? "You look great," is my response. No one is hurt. It's called not sweating the little things --- and not giving HER a chance to sweat them either.

No, I don't think you can prevent it altogether. The white lies, I think it all depends on the person. The example that's always given is "do you think I'm fat" or "DQoes this dress look good on me?" That is where it depends on the person and how easily ones feelings get hurt. Some may be really looking for an honest answer. but as far as lieing to get out of trouble, that's something else. I have always said I would rather tell the truth and get in trouble rather than lie. You get a reputation of always being honest, then, when if you're accused of something you didn't do and you say you didn't, you're more likely to be believed. Another thing of course is to keep yourself out of situations where you're going to have to lie. But I guess that's a little easier said than done.

Hmmmm.. I have a little different perception of a lie. We lie because we have desire and we fear that that something we desire will be lost. We are dependent on it. With independence comes the courage to speak truth and the truth gives the independence. With all this information, I can say that, I too lie, but most of the times for me only. I don't lie for other people though sometimes I did too.
