Good relationships are founded on the truth.
If you build one on a house of cards, it tumbles down pretty quickly.
Normally, what you describe only happens with someone with low self esteem.
If you trust someone you're interested in and they genuinely like you, it won't matter anyway. Truth is always best.

Yep! You know most of your questions really make me rack my brain for hidden meanings, or is there other information that she is trying to get from us other than what's on the surface. However, this one, even below the surface, is pretty much the same. It would be kind of a compliment to see that someone would stretch the truth to the point of absurdity just to get in ones good graces, but, it's still deceptive, and that can't be too good. When I was younger I wanted to liked for the person I was not, so i made myself out to be someone of nearly "super invincible" stature. Then of course as things progress you are always found out. That was terribly embarrassing! Hard lesson learned. 7 year old's never have a big red "S" on their chest. They bleed when they try to achieve the person they have projected as themselves. I am pretty sure you are not speaking of yourself though.
It's easy to read between the lines and see you are a very unique and fascinating person. You've got tons of cool character traits! A personality that attracts like a moth to a flame. If you made up something about yourself (like you have a tail... lol) I see only the personality. And it shines!

Yes, that would be deceiving.
But if this is a trait that you actually desire for yourself, why not work on actually aquiring it, rather than faking it? People CAN change themselves for the better in order to make a relationship happier or stronger. But if you feel that you cannot, or just do not want to actually change yourself, then it's always better to be truthful. Your true self will always come out eventually, and being deceiving will just cause distrust in the relationship - and trust can be a hard thing to gain back.
Of course I'm talking about inner traits. If this has more to do with deceiving someone about something else, like telling them you have this amazing job (that you actually do not), or material things that you say you own (but actually do not )- then it is always better to be truthful about things like that. In the end, we all want someone who loves us for the inner person, not for those small details that actually say so little about us.

Now it is about you.
The last question was about us.
I am beginning to feel like the Wizzard of Oz.
Perhaps Richard S. was correct in his analogy of this place. I responded to his blog and it compared Yahoo Answers to the Wizard of Oz. I guess that would make me the tin man, ("...If I only had a brain...."). I told him his analogy was strange but I might have prejudged this place.
My point to Richard was that all on the questions in the Wizard of Oz had anwers that the persons asking the questions had to find inside themselves.
You have to decide this one for yourself.
I can tell you that for myself lying in any form is a deception. I am not good at deceptions so I try not to do them.
Yes, I am avasive but never deceptive.
If I have to lie to keep your attention then I don't deserve it.
If you feel like this then you only have to ask what if anything you are lying about and don't lie. Then this question becomes moot to you and to others as well.
Anyway, I hoped this helped. If not maybe my other ones did.

No dear,, in making out to be something that you are not , so that i will be more attracted to you --- Only you are deceived...
Your attraction may bring me closer to you after you have charmed me out.. but when the I learn about real you in your utter Nudity... I will regret for the error I committed and also feel cheated causing double trouble of anger and hate... may be violence... to you and/or me both...

Yes, you are. Why would anyone do that...people need to just be themselves, how else are they ever going to find someone who loves them for who they really are. I mean, you pretend you are someone else to make some dude fall for you. Then, later on, you try to be yourself again and the dude has had enough and is out of there. Then he will be blamed even though it was not his fault.
