How often do you tell a lie?

When someone ask you what you did on the last holiday, do you tell lies to make it more exciting?

No, I don't lie. I don't like to lie if I don't have to. I have nothing to hide. The only thing I'm not always honest about is my real name. But, that's online only and that's the place where its most important to protect yourself. If I lie, its for a good reason. So in short when it comes to the holidays I simply tell the truth.

Great, that you do not tell lies and you do not like to tell lies. So it is absolutly true that you are a honest person. But it is very strange that you don't tell lies ever. I think all people tell lies, someone tell much and someone not. What do you think? Do you think people can live without telling lies. I think it is impossible to live without telling lies.

Honestly speaking, "white lies" are told quite often. But true lies are rarely said to other people. Lies that cannot affect other peoples feelings are quite a daily routine to me, but when it comes to the ones that are unforgivable, I knew I can only count it in my fingers for my whole life.

I do not tell much lies. Also i think i'm not harmful to people when i tell lies him/her ! I always tell simple lies. It is very bad that there have many people who continuously telling lies. Some people tell lies to make a thing more exciting. Some people tell lies habitually. Some people tell lies to get something from a person.

Quite a lot actually... I try to be honest. But I have this problem that I never want to tell the truth. So sometimes I lie even before I realize it. I have to exert a lot of self control to really stop myself from lying. So, generally, when people ask that type of question, I tell the truth (except for those occasions when I cannot control myself)

Usually I do not tell lies because I do not like to tell lies. But sometimes I tell lies when it is necessary to tell lies. I think you are good because you do not tell lies to make something exciting. Whatever, it is not good to tell lies with others although we sometimes can not control us. There have some bad effect to tell lies. But we tell lies in different situations.

Yes, in real life, it is necessary to tell lies in certain occasions. That is fine, but I do this when there is no need to. I end up telling the truth but I just have this urge to lie. I do not know why I feel like this. I should see a doctor. It is a really good habit not to tell lies. I really like people who are straight forward and do not lie. My sister is one of them and she is my best buddy...

Sometimes I tell lies to them if they don't go out for some movements. Like that, my firends are intrested in making movements. You know, all peole work all days. it is not good to their health. If I tell lies that I am very pleased to play somethings or travel, they must plan to go with me next holiday.
