i dont think i lies daily but maybe once a week which i think is pretty moderate. i have consciuosly made an effort to avoid the small lies one tends to tell, excuses for not going to a party, for being late, for not attending a picnic and so on. i try to keep is simple adn truthful. what about u? how many times do u lie in a day and to whom do u lie the most???

I don't lie every day, but I don't always tell the whole truth, sometimes to avoid unnecessary trouble, other times because its someone who i dislike and dont want them to know more about me so they can use it against me.

I do not tell lies daily either, I hate to tell lies but if I have to tell lies then I only tell little white lies that do not hurt anyone. Therefore I find that I seldom tell lies. When I tell lies it would have to be to my husband probablhy as otherwise he would get angry.

Come to think of it, whether consciously or sub-consciously we might lie, more commonly the small white lies. As for me, when my little girls ask me stuff which are difficult to answer, sometimes, I tell them small white lies to get away from the more complicated stuff. Sometimes, I think I am just plain lazy explaining stuff to people and I simplify it which can come across as a little lie. As for big lie. Very rare and I cannot remember ever the need to do so. I agree with you on being truthful generally. Telling lies is really morally undesirable, especially those harmful to others.

i sometimes lie to avoid unnecessary trouble,i think not every lie is bad to yourself or others. No person could sy that he/she never tell a lie, because that is impossible to everyone. so i don't always regard lies as a bad matter,you know,tings should be viewed in differernt points according to the actual situations. so i will still lie if i think it is really necessary to me and it won't do others harm.
