All kinds of reasons. Fear, insecure, don't want to hurt someones feelings, want to impress someone, etc. Honesty may be the best policy but it does not stop people from lying. Sometimes the truth hurts. I still try to be as honest as possible and that can be hard sometimes.

Because people also know that the truth is hurtful. They know that what they did was wrong so therefore they create a lie.

To save some kind of embarassment. This is a function of our survival instincts! People who claim they do not lie are liers!
