The problem with "little white lies" is that it becomes a habit and them begins to make it easier for us to tell bigger lies. If a friend askes something such as do I look alright today , there is no harm in saying that they look great even tho you might think they look bad. It is your friends feelings you are protecting, but just to fib a little in every day conversation is bad because it really does start lending a pattern to being dishonest.

hi i'm all for white lies. i don;t think there is anything wrong esp if you do it to avoid someone getting hurt. why not ? a small lie can't hurt anyone - but a small truth can :)
