Lying

Lying is a bad habit and it does not belong to the good manners of the person in dealing with the others. In order to mislead them intentionally, he or she gives a false statement. Some might say, it is a white lie. It does not hurt anyone.

People lie for different reasons. To cover someone they know or someone they love. By the way, who lies more, men or women?

  • Tetapi mengapa Nigh T? In many fields you are better than us. In the field of lying, you are the best. As you mention, you are smart in doing it, and you are the best. We, I mean us, are heavy in making an intrigue situation and we are easy to be discovered. Once, I tried to lie to my wife about a golden necklace. It was false. I told her that it was a Bahraini one. The Bahraini gold has a unique glimmer. At once, she said, "Cut it out, aren't you ashamed of yourself?" Then I confessed.  

  • Kamu yakin mod. Onee? This is the problem with lying.  You  feel anxious and something is wrong. I agree with you, in certain situations, women are clever than men.  Thanks, mod.  Onee for your  nice comment.

  • Muchas gracias Fran! I am very sad to hear that, my dear good friend. I want the truth to be the current human condition. By the way, did you mean that we have to lie? In that case, the unharmful lie or the white lie is an option then, don't you think? Thanks, Fran for your nice comment. 

  • Halet chetore Saba? You are not like before. Are you busy? I agree with you but can you tell me more about  The Hasidic group. Is it a religious group? My information about it is very vague. Thanks, Saba for your comment on that discussion, lying.  

  • Kimon achon  Nazmul Huq Simanto. Welcome to the club .Thanks for pressing the like button.  Can I be  one of your friends? Thanks. 

  • Como voce esta Pedran? Ei muito obrigado! In spite that you did not have much time and you were busy, but your comment is considered the longest one so far.  Regarding the using of the indefinite article "a", how did you know that I wasn't referring to a specific person? I was referring to both genders male and female. It was obvious from the question at the end of the article. Besides, look at the phrase, (in dealing with the others), it shows exactly what person I was talking about. 

    Lying is making a false or untrue statement with the intention of deceiving. In another way, it is a creation of a misleading impression.

    To lie for your lover is to avoid him or her escaping the punishment. You know that he or she is guilty of something and you lie to save that lover. Nevertheless, thanks for your comment.

     

    • Ola Pedran, for the last part of my reply to your comment.

      To lie for your lover is to avoid him or her escaping the punishment. 

      To lie for your lover is to avoid him or her the punishment. Thanks again.

  • Jain dobry Rysperki, dear Rys, let me add something which is new here. Maybe some of the members know it. I, myself find it absurd.  Some people lie to look good and modern.  I have seen many types of those  people.  I will give you an example: (A poor man tries to show his girlfriend that he is rich and he is from  a high level family.  He tells her in the phone that he is the boss at work and that nobody dares to disobey him). The problem with lying, it is easily forgotten and sooner or later the truth will come like the sun. I can say, it is a disease inside our thoughts. You and Mr Satya are both my friends. Thanks,  Rys.

  • Okay, Teacher Dara. I admit that sometimes I lie to my mother about having breakfast.

    But most of time, I can't tell lie to anyone. :D

    Telling a lie will make me full of anxiety.

    I'm not sure, but maybe women. They are pretty clever to hide something, especially a mother. ^^
