Hey guys... You know what its like... your told one thing and you think something else... ever had that feeling? You know that perhaps the person who is telling you one thing is actually telling you s lie... Why can't people just be honest about what is going on instead of trying to get out of it by lying. It just seems ridiculous. I am one of those people who know in my own mind the truth, whether that be intuition or whether it be because I can just work it out for myself, so when people tells me one thing, and have that look about thier face that actually they are not telling the exact truth. It really does annoy me, even though I know that there might be a reason as to why they feel they have to protect the truth, I just hate lies. Rant Over

hi rosie230 oh yes my hubby and my adult son were so good at that. don't upset mom, just tell her everything's okay. the motive might have been good but it did upset mom to think that they felt I could not stand the truth, that I was just a worthless wuss.So I would say okay lets hear the bad news and get it over with.So then my husband would mumble, I lost my job or we are overdrawn at the bank, or I got a traffic ticket. And I would counter, Is that all? You will get a new job, or we will have to put some money in the bank to cover that, or you will have to work a bit to pay off that ticket.With my son I would go well you will just have to go look for a new job then, won't you? My point is that I was much more stressed out by them not telling me the truth than anything that they could tell me.

Yeah thats the problem I'm having... Normally I have my thursday through to sunday, with the other half... and when I asked if would be here to watch the england match on saturday night, he said he was going to be watching it in the pub with his mates... well thats fine I have no problem with that... but then I asked if he would still be coming up, and he just said... "I don't know, I havnt thought about it yet"... well obviously he has thought about it, otherwise he wouldnt have told me he was watching the game in the pub... so I know what will happen, he just wont turn up, and lie and say he got drunk, and forgot all about it. I just wish, and would rather he told me now, that he dont want to come up rather than lie and drag it all up again by just giving me the impression he is coming when really hes not.I know it sounds pathetic for me to get annoyed at something so trivial, but it just drives me crazy, as we dont see him enough as it is.

It is some people's nature to tell lies like that. I think it is some sort of sadistic behaviour. At many times, they will not care of such things and will not bother how other will feel about it. Also, for the argument sake, afterwards it get reveled, they sometimes deny it. Being truthful and honest is a quality which does not everyone have. Even I hate people say lies just for it. If we catch hold of few instances, and make them rag enough, they may change to an extent. But, I think these type of people simply enjoy by telling lies. Treatment is required for them. Thank-s

You know whats worse is when they know you've caught them in the lie but they keep insisting that they were telling the truth. God could come down himself and say "Hey dude you're lying" and they'd still be at it. Like they're in denial or something.

For me, I'm not yet a family guy so I can't really tell. But one thing I can share is about the son part, I lied to my mother for some time and indeed she always ended up disappointed and stressed up. So i decided to tell her things in such a detailed manner when i was already in college. Because every time when she's sad, the only thing i can thing about is how to cheer her up through simple ways. So by telling her the truth, it already placed a small smile to her face. My mom now is my priority, because she already had enough of the work, now it's my time to do my job... ^_^
