Ever since we are born, people have taught us to be honest. Honesty is the best policy, is something we are taught, but is it actually this way...??? Are we always honest, I mean we do lie in different situations, everyone of us do at some or the other point. We often lie to make people happy, we do hide things to cut down the Chaos, don't we do that...??? So what are the situations in which it is okay to lie...?

Perhaps when no good will come from telling the truth, it's better not to say anything.

@yoalldudes , yes but how can we be just silent. Eventually people will demand answers... They will expect us to say something....

I heard from someone if you never tell lie for at least 3 months then sometimes a little lie of yours will come true. Don't know whether it works or not. I haven't tried.

Is there a situation where you would want someone else to lie to you?
