lately i was being so honest to tell to someone what i know and feel, but sometimes if i was talking to a friend even in their worst troubles, it's hard to lie to them even if i want to, just to make them smile and happy but what i learned from the past is that lying will only make them a prisoner of the reality and i was the one who make them captive if i lie to them. but is the situations calls maybe but i hope not i will lie to them just to make them smile.. share your story..

Hi lesfery: I try to be honest. I don't like lying but you know, if somthing that is tru could hurt a friend I prefer not to mention this true. I think that sometimes, people say they are just being honest and they think that this argument allows them to hurt somebody with their words. I prefer not to do this. Call me diplomatic, but in these cases, I could lye to make a person feel happy when it's not necessary that they know this part of the truth. Thanks for your answer. Have a nice day. ALVARO.

most of the time if friend was asking me about it i usually asked them if what their intentions in asking me, if they answer i want somebody to listen to me i say ok i'll listen but if they say, they want my opinion or points of view i tell them honestly that what ever i say put it on the other persons shoes to view my opinion on the other side of the story so i won't hurt them if my opinion will favor them..thanks for your responses..Godbless

i agree with you...lying is not a very good idea and it's doomed to aggravate some situations. the truth always sets us free.

Hi baby retzel: I endorse this statement in the 90% of the cases but just as i mention in my own answer, sometimes it's not necessary to say some a person something that is going to hurt him/ her and that won't be good at all for this person. In this case I put my feelings on this person that I love over the obligation of telling the truth. Thanks for your answer. Have a nice day. ALVARO
