There are several reasons for lies, all of which do not make sense.
1- A lie will protect another (or the liar) from a harmful truth.
2- The person is a pathological liar.
3- The person is lying to get attention.
4- The person doesn't have a clue what the actual truth us. |

to avoid having to tell the truth and offend someone even though they want the truth "they can't handle the truth!" then you lie so you won't get into trouble. It's wrong to lie, but sometimes you gotta do it because people are afraid of the truth and if you tell it to them they go baloney! |

Self preservation. Don't make much sense though, cause when you're caught your creditibality is damaged. |

My sister did it when she was a kid - lying for no apparent reason. She's 47 now and I think with her it's become an ingrained behavior - a bad habit. |

Life is a lie. We're told we're free, we're educated, we work hard, we live 'nice' lives. But it's all a big fat lie. Nothing is free, we're narrow minded, we're lazy, and life sucks. Live the lie. |

It's human nature to lie. We all do it. No one is perfect. |

Some people are scared of things or what other people might think of them so they lie to cover themselves. I think it has a lot to do with insecurity. |

To cover up a mess or afraid to hurt the feelings of the person who the lie is about. |

Because the truth hurts sometimes |

Because lying is so incredibly easy to do.
The hard part is to keep lying to cover up the previous lies so that people think you're telling the truth. |

My ex husband lied so much he began to believe himself,I always told him when you tell one lie ,you have to tell another to cover the last one up.To this day he still lies.I have told some untruths to keep from hurting peoples feelings,but 9 times out of 10 ,even if it meant I might lose something,or be in trouble,I tell the whole truth,no matter what.Its better to be honest up front,and suffer the consequences right then,than to lie ,and be found out later,and suffer for the it,and the lie later on. |

You had something to hide
Should have hidden it, shouldn’t you
Now you’re not satisfied
With what you’re being put through
It’s just time to pay the price
For not listening to advice
And deciding in your youth
On the policy of truth
Things could be so different now
It used to be so civilised
You will always wonder how
It could have been if you’d only lied
It’s too late to change events
It’s time to face the consequence
For delivering the proof
In the policy of truth
Never again
Is what you swore
The time before
Never again
Is what you swore
The time before
Now you’re standing there tongue tied
You’d better learn your lesson well
Hide what you have to hide
And tell what you have to tell
You’ll see your problems multiplied
If you continually decide
To faithfully pursue
The policy of truth
Never again
Is what you swore
The time before
Never again
Is what you swore
The time before |

I just watched this last night on tv I dont know why I did but there was a show on about the brain. There are white and gray neutrons. The more white neutrons your brain has the more of chance you are a liar or a pathological liar. Thats why the people that lie and come can come up with things right off the top of thier heads are so good at it (because they have alot of white matter -neutrons- in the brain) |

people tell a lie some time for enjoyment,
some times to hide the truth
some times to make some happy
some times to show him self greatest
and telling lie is the hobby of some person . they tell a lie in every conversaction |
