page 1 of 2

I searched and didn't find anything related... if there is, just delete this.

I am asking myself why do people lie even thow you ask them to tell you the truth and to be honest!! False reason they give is because they don't want to hurt, but please!!! When you discover the truth that was hidden from you by people you trusted, it hurts more than if you would have been told the truth at the begining!! I mean you feel like you were played with... so anyone has an answer???

And here i'm talking about serious lies... I mean when you ask someone a question and ask them to tell the truth and be honest... this is their chance to tell everything... but no, they continue to lie...

fear or demons, pick your religion

Well...hmmm interesting question."Why do people lie?"People lie because of many reasons I think one is that they are afraid to show their real self,or not to be hurt but the most important reasons some seem to lie for is that that makes them feel better,is that because they are bad or they like to be different in front of others..to seem more important.Sick people that lie to themselves not only to us and also stupid people!I think I'll write more tomorrow now I really have to go...hugs^_^!See ya! :)

people will lie big time all the time but depending on the situation it can either really hurt someone or save somebody from getting hurt. people who lie to themselves must not be seen as stupid, as stupid their actions may seem, but really have to be helped. in any case you reap what you sow, lies will more then likely come back to haunt you...

To lie is way easier than telling the truth. Take it from someone who suffered from telling lies, and only reveal the truth when it's too late.

Confessing the truth with serious matters is like exposing yourself and weakening yourself infront of the one who is there, or puts you in a condition that you don't want to be in. The easier thing to do is just lie. To lie is easy, makes you think that you don't hurt someone and is the fastest solution you can use.

they may do it to protect you, and to be honest most people you know lie, including polititians, people vote them in and then discover the truth, but you can't do anything. . .

Friends lie because they need to, for what ever reason, for example to make you feel better like "its all going to be ok" or "you look nice today" we do it everyday. . .some do it to protect you like "no, i didn't see him on saturday" or whatever, most lies are made to keep people happy. . .

a lot of people are morons, so lies cover up what the morons will be offended by... thus it all is from fear of the morons, the morons are many in number... be afraid and falter from honesty, for collateral damage is such a big deal

Lying is just easier.

Lying is easier because they fear something... so basically people who lies are cowards! Isn't it sometimes also a way to spice up life? :P I mean sometimes people are lying to make themselves look better at the eyes of others... but here again it's the fear to not be loved by others that is pointed out! Fear... We are controlled by Fear and lies are there to prove it!


to prevent someone from harm or to impress someone.

sometimes its just driven by necessity..

Quote by raideralanLying is just easier.

How is lying easier? Once if they DO find out the truth, everything will just fall apart.

I'd say that people lie because they fear reality. But then one point in your life you'd have to lie, wouldn't you?

People lie to hide the truth, dont want to tell the truth, and cant handle what might happen if they tell the truth. and theres of course a lot of reasons why people lie, but there can be a lot of stupid excuses they give for why they are covering up the truth in the first place. depends on the situation i suppose.

HEy i dont know mybe there scared of the truth!

im straightforward...i dont often lie...i use alot of white lies...im cutting bak lately...if they wanna ask the truth and if i dont wanna give it to them...usual response i use is..."i dont know..."

To lie is human nature. It is that simple.

to cover mistakes that someone made, because of fear.

Like some said, they don't want to hurt you. The worst part is when you find out... Seriously, things can get fixed more easy if it's someone speaks with the truth.

Some say they do so, but in the end, it's all a lie. *Sigh*

And why the ppl often asking from the truth when they didn't feel ready to hear it?
And why they react bad when they hear the truth that THEY ask for?

to cover up their mistakes....thats mostly the reason..

Because the truth hurts.

You've got a point here... We often are asking for the truth even knowing that we aren't ready to hear it but I guess some people understand better when they confront the truth than to make a lot of ideas in their head. I'm like that, I get mad when I hear what I asked for but I guess it is also human nature to hope for what they believe in until the end!!

Quote by violetvalkyrieto cover mistakes that someone made, because of fear.

i agree ...the people lie for simple fear .... fear to see your own defects

It's easier than telling the truth:

"Am I going to die?"
"Yyyy.. no...."

"Does this make me look fat?"
"Yyyy...................... no..."

"Did you sleep with my bf/gf?"
(0.00000000001 seconds later) "NO!"

It's instincts...

Could you imagine if everyone told how they truely felt towards someone.
I think there would be alot of hurt feelings and maybe a few deaths imo.
