livendive 8 #5 October 1, 2003 I think it can be, or not, depending on the person. I know a few people who lie a LOT. One is a jumper who's tried to convince me that he got me into jumping (I met him at the DZ when I had like 20 jumps), that he was my jumpmaster (he had like 15 more jumps than me), and that he had over 4000 jumps when I knew he'd just passed 300. I honestly don't think he knows what the truth is on a lot of things because he's told so many lies. I also know other people who lie occasionally, but not to the point that it is their identifying characteristic. I think it's kind of like alcohol...some people don't drink, some people drink sometimes, some people drink a lot, and some drink to the point that it can be considered an illness. Of course a few beers can give a nice buzz, as opposed to lying which as far as I can tell has no pleasant side-effects. Blues, Dave"I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!"

airann 1 #10 October 1, 2003 Here is my own personal rule on truth vs not the truth. I tell the truth because it is fact. I can remember fact. If I make something up, I may not remember it. I have a horrible memory. Therefore if an event remains the same I have no worries and no guilt. Besides, you can seriously tell from my face a mile away if I am lying. Sometimes a little editing is ok. - Do I look fat in these pants? Answer- I think your blue ones look best. Its all about consequences for me. I like keeping my karma clean and my life worry free. CONSIDER THIS ... if he is your EX, let that shyt go.... He is occupying a space in your brain where the real estate is too valuable to be taken up by memories of a creep.

flyangel2 2 #15 October 1, 2003 Some people lie to look more important. If I think someone is doing that, I set a situation up so as to catch them in a lie. Dose that make me just as bad as someone that lies? May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view.

skybabe76 0 #16 October 1, 2003 Well, I just found out after a year and a half that he lied about many, many things. We still talk and were thinking about working things out, until I found about all of his lies. Am I stupid, or what??!?!?!?!?! "If you're going to be stupid, you better be tough!"

skybabe76 0 #22 October 1, 2003 You call that "protecting"????? His whole life becomes a lie and now he can't separate a lie from the truth. You don't get respect by lying to people that you care about. Because when we find out the truth, it is doubly worse. Sorry, I'm gonna be playing "Devil's Advocate" for a while.

wildblue 7 #24 October 1, 2003 this can be used to your advantage... if two men are standing at a fork in the road, one always lies and one always tells the truth - one road leads to town, the othe rot certain doom - what one question can you ask of either of them to find out how to get to town?it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
themitchyone 0 #25 October 1, 2003 I can't believe that so many people voted that lying is an addiction. IMHO lying is always a conscious choice, unless a person has a mental disorder."If the Bible has taught us nothing else, and it hasn't, it's that girls should stick to girl's sports such as hot oil wrestling and foxy boxing." - Homer Simpson Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
