Not deliberately, but sometimes it slips out before I've thought about it. My best friend is in a bad situation with her husband - it's her fault too, in my opinion, so I try not to lie, I just don't say alot. The thing is, she says "I'm right aren't I?" That's when I twist and turn and end up giving the impression I am agreeing, so I guess that would qualify as lying.

yes my life is a constant lie - i am a compulsive liar. i have told many people i know and love lies - sometimes for sympathy, sometimes because i know its what they want to hear, sometimes to hurt them, sometimes just for the hell of it. i can t tell you why i do it - i just do. It has benefitted me in some ways, and hindered me in others as i constantly have to be on my toes, always remembering who i told which lie to, sometimes i trip up and have to lie my way out of why i lied.
sometimes i wish i hadnt lied, and that everybody knew the real me...but sometimes i'm glad that i did, and that nobody does.

I make a concious effort not to, but I am human and sometimes I do hopfully with a pure motive but I can not guarantee it

no
and that is the truth
i can't bear dishonesty even if they are white lies - better to say nothing than to lie
