"It's a basic truth of the human condition that everybody lies. The only variable is about what."
- Gregory House MD
The inspiration behind this post is that I've been lied to countless times this month alone. While knowing stuff that people don't want you to know is fun most of the time. Having people you know lie to your face is insulting; 1) they think you're stupid enough to believe that 2) they think you don't deserve the truth.
I'm not saying I have never lied, but lying is the last resort.
LYING DONTs:
1- Don't lie just for the sake of it. I know someone who have made up so many lies that they get mixed up with reality and their lies.
2- Don't lie to spare someone's feelings. Finding out that you lied hurts their feeling even more.
3- Don't lie to keep a secret. You're better off ignoring a person's questions.
4- Don't lie for someone else. Just say "it's not my secret/story/thing to tell."
5- Don't lie an elaborate lie. All the details will get jumbled up in your head, and it's pretty embarrassing to tell your own story the wrong way.
But, when it comes to other people how do you spot a liar??
