When I was little, I learned the lesson very quickly that inventing stories was the same as lying and just as harmful. While I don't actively lie (I find I can't, or not convincingly unless I feel it's really necessary to lie) I sometimes stretch the truth when I can't think of words I want or don't have the patience to explain the entirety of the situation. I don't ever remember lying about something really important to someone I cared about--the guilt would eat at me. I feel no guilt about lying to strangers or people who pry, however.<BR/><BR/>When someone <I>directly</I> lies to me about something, I become really offended. Indignant is the best word to describe it. Ironically, it was a Pisces who was lying to me. He was saving face, but I still felt as if I'd been slapped.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
