A liar will not be believed, even when he speaks the the truth

Yup your right. My mom used to tell me this story about a shepherd who cried wolf twice just for fun and the next time when a wolf really came and even though he cried no one believed him. Second chances should be given but there should be a strong faith in ourselves that the person won't let us down again. Without that it can become very difficult to trust that person with anything. But once a person has earned back his trust i believe that he won't ever break it again. A person who has lied lies usually for personal gain but there are some others who lie but they do it for someone's or somethings sake. Cheers!

It is like the story where the boy cries wolf.He cried when there was no wolf around and the villagers gathered to save him from imminent danger,only to find out that the boy was playing pranks on them.One day when the wolf really arrived and the boy cried for help none came to help him.Similarly when a person is a habitual liar the others will not believe him when he tells the truth.

that's why I am always careful with my conducts and words all my life people have either manipulated me or accused me something I didn't do so I learned to always be careful with my conducts and words and who I friends with otherwise everyone else will believe them I have been accused of stealing at least 6 times my entire life on ALL occassions I didn't steal, but I was friends with the thief or the thief was a co worker some occassions it was proven, but no apology whatsoever so the rest I couldn't care less, because the thief will steal again, and this time they will know I didn't do it I'm sure the real thief and liars laughed about it, but I also know that for everything we send out, we get it back they will pay for it, time and time again, because not only they lied to a friend (me) they also lied to everyone else due to my life experiences, I don't trust anyone some people lie because it's necessary, some people lie because they are liars there are more of the latter

I am the kind that belive in people easily, but if that person is already labeled as liar then I dont think I will belive so his words so easily. I think it depends on what kind of lie he have told before too...

True! I know one person who like that. Its very hard to believe someone especially if you know that they are always lying. When they are already telling the truth, no one will believe them anymore. I dont like liars as friends.

i think i could no longer avoid doubting the person. but maybe i would try to give him/her a second chance. yeah, i would suspiciously believe. but if things still go awry, there shall be no 3rd chance. we could only do so much. the other person should do his/her part in deserving our trust.

Oh no he/she will never be unless he/she makes a point to admit every time he/she has lied and makes it a point to better it. Also it is important that someone close keeps encouraging, supporting and checking so as to improve the person.

i would always remember the story of the Boy Who Cried Wolf in your discussion. Furthermore,there is also a saying that reads,"it takes years to build up trust and only seconds to destroy it." In the contrary though, there is another saying that quotes, "Love knows no limits to endurance, no end to its trust, no fading of its hope, it can outlast anything. Love still stands when everything has fallen." In your case, if we are talking about a committed love, then you have to cooperate and simply trust your man." But if we are talking business, woah! you got to leave it and look for someone else who is worth trusting and competent.

It's really hard to trust someone 100% when you know that person has lied to you already. Of course i will still give that person a chance, we all are willing to change if we know it's for our own good..but i will be doubting his/her words still and not to trust completely.

There is this court show that I have watched from time to time and I love this Judge because she speaks direct and truthful. She says honey I would not believe you if your tongue came notarized. HA! She is so correct as when people get caught lying how on earth do you know they will ever speak the truth.

When a person do it on the first time, for sure I will always have a doubt on him/her. It's so hard to trust again. The only thing I will give him/her is a chance but I'm not expecting too much not like the first time. Because you know trust is like a glass, once broken it can never be whole or the same again and that is the saddest part of it.
