Have you ever noticed that when someone starts a sentence with "Honestly" they're usually lying?

Answer 1

Yes. The word "honestly" is thrown in to a)appear sincere, and b)buy a second of time to come up with a lie.

Answer 2

I've never noticed..but that makes sense since they're trying to convince you and possibly themselves that they're telling the truth...

I start some sentences with honestly though...so I think it depends on the person...

Answer 3

I'd say more like "sometimes" they are lying. Here's the phrase to watch out for..."Trust Me" is always followed by something horrible.

Answer 4

Not always. Some people are very honest and will use that depending on what they're talking about. Normally they don't over use that word. n

Answer 5

Yes or they say ," To tell you the truth..." It's like, great what having you been doing this whole time!!!! Lying!!!! Why say that... because they are full of it!!

Answer 6

I really shouldnt be telling you this but to tell you the truth, I heard it one the grapevine and to be quite frank I dont believe a word of it.

Answer 7

when I say honestly I usually mean it

Answer 8

Yep, for the most part. Honestly, they're trying to be blunt.
