should we sometimes prefer telling a lie to save our relationship??

If you lie for the betterment of your relationship, maybe it is alright to lie a bit. but if you lie so that you can make excuses thats another story. Think many times first.

sometimes we have to lie to save r relationship its quiet imortant to lie if we cant manage our life without them but we should not betray them .

You know, I wouldn't do anything that I felt I had to lie about to my partner. I believe that honesty and trust in a relationship are very important, and lying about something just causes grief too. Even if at that time they don't know what happened, if they find out later it would be even more problems. If I had a partner who had an affair, and never confessed to me, and I found out through someone else, that relationship would be over. But in the past I have forgiven partners who came to me and said "I messed up", laid it all on the line, and asked for forgiveness. Now, I haven't given them a billion chances, but I have given them a second chance. So if I did do something incredibly stupid that could harm our relationship, I would go to my husband, tell him, and ask for forgiveness... because I always hold myself to the same standards I hold everyone else.

A lie never saves a relationship. It only dooms it. My partner lied to me saying he didn't want to hurt my feelings or it will only make me feel jealous and I got angrier at him. It almost ended our relationship.

I think truth is always the best policy and I have that in my relationship. There have been some things that I have said that have upset my wife, but we have worked through it. And the same with her. Nobody can help what they feel at times, but trying to conceal it, in my mind, is more or less saying that the relationship is not trustworthy, and if that's the case, there is trouble in store. What my partner did before I met her is what makes her who she is now, and the same vice-versa. We have a committed to each other and if that commitment is broken, that would be a lie, but if there's temptation and its brought out into the open we are just showing each other that we have the trust in the other person to be honest about it.

I believe honesty is the best policy! I would rather know the truth that hurts than have someone lie to my face! I would do the same for them.

Honesty is always the best policy as when you lie to get out of trouble it always comes back to bite you later and then you look twice as bad for doing whatever and then lying about it as well . I can't say I have never told a lie before but try to save lies for when I feel that the issue is not that bad and would like to help someone out such as two friends who had a misunderstanding and now don't trust one another , by telling one the good the other said even if I was asked not to as it is always nice to know when someone has something good to say about you , in the hopes that this will help patch up the misunderstanding they had :)

I believe honesty is the best policy. Because even if you don't tell your partner now about that affair sooner or later it's bound to find out and it'd be all the worse as your partner could think that you are not to be trusted. If you are caught lying once he/she may always wonder if you tell the truth or not.

It depends, but i would lie to save my relationship yes.
