Lies can be perceived as an untrue statement, a deviation, whether big or small, from what is known to individuals as being real. We can also say that it is a false statement deliberately presented as being true, thus it is misrepresenting a situation or giving a totally wrong impression about something that doesn't really exist.

Normally there are two types of lies, first of all, the white lies, which do little or no damage at all, and the black lies, the ones which can do much detriment to the deceiver or the deceived when the truth is found out.

What are your views about lies?

I hate liars because they lie So if i say that i am a man, it is a white lie? When i say that i have no boy friend, it is a black one, even if he is far in Australia and i'm in Singapore?
I think lies shouldn't exsist as they destroy people lives. If only all people were honest life would be so much better.

Your boyfriend, your husband, your friend, people around might tell you something which might not be true. Sometimes it happens that you do it yourself. So, we've all did it at least once in our life.

We lie coz sometimes the truth is too bitter and we tend to hide behind something which is not true. Or sometimes we don't want others to get hurt by the truth. and so on.

One thing i know about lies is once you start lying even for a simple cause or to avoid an argument, you will have the tendency to lie each and everytime.
One lie is followed by hundred lies and for me a lie is a lie, there are no white or black lies, i do not believe and agree with these lies!

There is actually black lies and white lies. And I bet that you must done it yourself in the course of your life. Don't say no. Coz it is part of human nature.

There is nothing wrong, absolutely nothing wrong is saying a white lies coz in some cases you don't have any other choices than to say a white lies to avoid hurting your nears and dears.

A simple example I give you, let suppose you receive a call from someone you hardly want to talk at that particular moment, you would say that you don't want to talk to him or her or you would rather find some other things to say, not to hurt him or her. Here you go, dear, this a white lies. You did it just to avoid him or her feeling hurt. No harm in it

I have been a liar all through my marital life. I don't love my husband. He knows it, but i won't ever be honest with him because he will be hurt. Even if he knows that i'm lying, i think it's good things that i hide my true feelings to him. What if he commits suicide when i tell him that i don't feel anything for him?

Rowan is so right when he says that lies can lead to unsolvable problems. You can dive in such a big abyss when you lie, that it will be nearly impossible to come out of it.
Xgirl, what if your husband commits suicide coz you don't tell him the truth? What if it becomes unbearable for him to handle the fact that you don't love him as you said he knows that you don't have feelings for him?

people lie when they can't tell the truth. truths at times can be fatal and dreadful and in some circumstances it is far better to tell a lie..for the betterment of others and for own..for the profit and welfare of everyone. at times, one lie becomes better than a hundred truths. still, there are many types of lies. the white lie is a small innocuous lie most of the time. it is used to crack jokes with friens and april fools

Some people don't even know how to appreciate jokes made on 1st April ... This makes me realize that people changed a lot and don't know how to enjoy life anymore ...
