So Mad With A Liar

Philippines

I am just so mad with a liar today. She and I have made an agreement but she would not stand up on her part of the deal. It's very annoying and frustrating dealing with a liar. I just had it today and I really could not control it anymore so I gave her a piece of my mind. She still would not even say sorry but try to reason out her and rationalize her lie. have you ever met people like this? aren't they annoying?

I have tried to instill in my children over and over again that lying is just one big hassle. My motto is: If you never lie, you'll never have to remember. You know whast really gets me? Is when you know someone is lying and they still try to insist they're telling the truth. As if we are crazy. There's nothing worse. I have told a lie and its literally tormented me! I have tried to be as honest as I possibly can. Im not the type to tell you what you want to hear. If the dress dont look good Im going to tell you that. I've had people get pissed with me because I told them the truth. To each their own... I guess. Happy MyLotting my friend. dl

Why people expect one to lie to make them feel better is beyond me. I have learned to change the subject instead of lying to a friend but now some of them get mad and try to pin me to it. If they insist then I tell them the truth and they get mad and I lose another friend that I never needed anyway.

I don't get that either. I'm not a people pleaser so when someone asks me for a comment it's very honest. When I ask for someone's opinion I also want the truth. I don't want to sugarcoat things and I don't like to lie.

My sister-in-law is a person like this and it drives me absolutely insane. I've caught her in several lies over the past four years that I've known her. She will say one day that she is allergic to fish and the next day she will be eating fish for dinner. Or there is the fact that she will say that her mother has stolen her identity and she won't press charges against her. I don't think that her mother has really used her identity. I wish that she would learn that honesty is the best policy.

hi, I feel so bad for you that you have one liar added to your family. Does your brother knows this? some people are used to lying so they begin to believe their lies. just wondering though what's the anatomy of a lie?

The first thing I hate in this world is lies. I will never ever forgive the liars, and I get so angry and sometimes I hit them also.

I wouldn't say I won't forgive but I would get mad. I try hard not to be physical when I am mad as it is against the law. but it wouldn't stop me from showing them my disappointment and frustration.

Hi, candyfairy21. I know how you feel. I know of a girl that lied to me about letting me use her car to try for my driver's license in. She told me that I could use it. And she was supposed to meet me at the DMV on the day that I wanted to use her car. But she never showed up.. I tried calling her, but she would not answer her phone at all. She just stood me up... And after that, she would give me excuses after excuses... And now, I don't bother with her anymore. It was so bad how she did me. I mean she really had me believing that she would look out for me. My trust in her is gone. She never had the guts to explain why she did what she has done to me. She just left me standing in the cold.. But never again, will I ever deal with her again. I think that it is very sad that people can lie to someone. Especially when they give you their word that they are going to do something.. It is annoying that people can be dishonest with you and don't give a hoot about how you feel. All that I can say is that, what goes around comes back around. If they think that life will be good to them after what they have done, then they better think again. Because what she has done to you, someone may do her the same way or even worse!

Hi candyfairy21, who wouldn't be mad with a liar? I guess no one. People who make up stories or people who reason out even when they are caught in the act make me pissed off. Why yes I've encountered a lot of people like this. Ironically one of sister in law is fond of doing this to me. You know she told me stories about the neighborhood, even though I didn't comment about it she told my neighbors that I said something bad. It's not fair because I did not even know the affairs of my neighbors and when sometimes I met them on the road, they sneered at me. It's a lesson for me though. It's been 2 months now that I didn't entertain my sister-in-law.

that's pretty lame of her doing that. she is putting words in your mouth which is not right. some people are pathologic liars they do not know what to lie about and what not to. Lying to them is like breathing! I do not know if there is any cure for that at all. I am so sorry to hear this, I know how hard it is to clear up stories made up by someone when other people are involved and getting mad at you for something you never said.

Well everyone of us used to lie,right? Of course if you are the one who lied, there must be a reason for that. But if you are the victim of lies, its really frustrating because of expectations.

Candy, I worked several years in a state prison and there you hear lies all the time. The good part is they are not friends so you come to expect it from them. From my friends I do not accept it so if they try then they don't stay my friends long.

This is another one of those occasions where I am sure I have but that I don't quite remember. There is one occurence of a semi liar, though I can't rightly say anything about it as they may have halfway misunderstood and then again it was more towards another person then anything else. That sounds vague, but it happened online.

Yes, I hate liars. Unfortunately the world seems full of them starting at some governments on down to individuals. I sometimes get to the point that I think you cannot trust anyone. The only thing you can do is limit your exposure to these people, and assume that there is a possibility they are lying and protect yourself accordingly.

Yes, I have met such people and I too get really annoyed. I try not to get agitated but sometimes it gets hard. If the person has messed up bad, then I just give the person a piece of my mind too. I don't feel calmer till I tell the person that what he/she did was unacceptable. Once I do that, I try to distract myself and do something to cheer me up. After all, no point getting too upset because some jerk is immature. I hope you are feeling better now. God bless ya. :)

yes i have encountered people like you have experience. but people doing it don't expect that it will return to them what they are doing to others. we felt angry with the people who manage to insist that they are not a lier even though we knew it already. what we will do next time we will not commit any transactions to them so that they will not lie anymore.
