Why do people lie? Afraid of not getting something they want, or losing something they have, I know someone already said this, guess I just wanted to write it........LOL
This does happen more on the net and I have found after a few conversations.....if you live in the "real" world, not in a "fantasy world" you know you have to see it to believe it and even then you still need to be aware!
What I have found is I can't change people, for me I usually have to be motivated to change by wanting something.........sometimes I have to feel some pain....then I am willing to take an "inventory", check with some friends....get some honest feedback and go a different direction............okay, this is long....I help people for a living....it is my nature.....Life is a Trip

Let's put the theory on the table. Men love to lie, but they are absolutely horrible at it. Women rarely lie, but when they do, it's a story so good that it could be the basis for 100 episodes of a Spanish soap opera.

What kills me about threads like this is that they imply that women don't lie, to which I call BS.
Lying for whatever reason is not limited to one gender or the other; one age group or another; people of one region or another; or any other generalities that one may want to make, but instead it speaks more to the character of the individual.

Well, sad fact of life is we all lie to a certain extent. We think of ourselves a certain way and fabricate stories (lies) to support that thought process and what we want to project to the outside world.
It is sad that decent people get caught up in this vicious cycle.
I think when people complain about wanting to find a "real" man, or a "real" woman, it is one who doesn't need their li(f)e-support of fabricated stories to impress someone. They just want someone who is themselves. The real "you" as it were.

Because they can and they likely think it is better to do so. Know that I use that determination for any person who lies, I do not discriminate due to sex, nationality, race, creed or religion.
I don't understand liars!

Isn't giving up on guys becoming a Lesbian?
Regardless, I take offense at "MEN ARE BORN TO LIE". Not saying there aren't a lot of liars/cheaters out there (on both sides of the fence) but one's gender doesn't predispose them to be liars/cheats. A person's own moral compass, values, and what sort of environment they were raised in, IMHO, has pretty much all to do with wither or not they are "liars/cheats" then specifically if they are "male" and "female".
Doesn't also change the fact that man or woman, people are going to lie, cheat, and steal to satisfy their selfish needs. This is just human nature IMHO, and not the monopoly of one sex over the other.
My 2 cents.

A lie is completely the from an individual. If all the men you know or have known are liars, then I suggest you change the crowd in which you associate. Because I'll bet dollars to donuts that the women in that group lie just as much. Unless of course you really mean that you were cheated on, which is more than a lie.
Also I would like to say I do not believe it is human nature to do bad. (lie) Not many amoung us wants to hurt others or see others lose. It is our nature rather to help each other. Think of the natural disasters and their aftermath. Most people looked to help others, a few looked for self gain, but they were far outnumbered.
People who are guilty of bad acts against others gather together, womanizers like to brag to each other. Liars think themselves smart and like to brag. Get out of that group and you will find lots of people, men included, that don't lie.

First I would like to state that men do not have the monopoly on lying. Many times I have been lied to by women. Think about that for a minute ladies. How many times have you witnessed your girlfriends tell lies or even yourselves. But as others have already said if your talking to someone and you know they are lying then the choice seems simple dont talk them anymore. reminds me of this joke I heard. Guy goes into the doctor and says "hey doc it hurts when I move my elbow" doc says " then dont move your elbow!!!"

Many lie to create another perception, okay. If someone is attempting to paint another picture of themselves directly to me, at least they are trying to impress me! It could be entertaining. Usually the impact of lies can be minimized if we are loyal to ourselves with honesty.
In essence, take the lies as a compliment when in the proper context!

Is Johnny from Ohio? Are these lyrics from some 'ska' new release? Sorry, I genuinely laughed outloud reading this. If behind every good man there is a Hillary Clinton tolerating those portioned truths while filing her nails & rolling her eyes; I suppose behind every prevaricator there is a sucker born every minute. I believe Lorena Bobbit discovered why men lie therefore took measures into her owns hands thereby eliminating any chance her husband would have to lie, alas, thinking with the other head.

i need advice? quote from jenny bunny.
He wants to keep you around so he can get what he wants from you when ever. Don't take it. A person who lies, once, can be forgiven, twice, it's a trait of theirs, three lies and the continued life of that lie is the fault of the receiver, you know he lies. He is not a good guy, he is a lier. He is not nice, probably never will be. Kick his as* to the curb. You really love being in love and he ain't. So you can not be in love there is no union, it takes two. Look for some one that will really offer you love. Probably not in your current group of friends. Go for it.

True confessions of a chronic lier;
Gee darling, should I tell you that you just don't look attractive to me today, or should I share with you that I was flirting on the internet hoping to find the perfect fling to satisfy my mid life crisis or that I like to go to the grocery store on my way home from work cuz there are pretty women there showing off their fine bodies and smiling at me when our eyes happen to meet. Should I tell you that its just too much trouble to sell the house and try to make our lives separtate when you are so needy and how would it be visiting the grand kids separately. Besides, I still care about you and want you to be happy, even if you are never interested in sex anymore cuz of your various health problems. So I do my best to take care of you and still hope for an intimate connection.
Oh yeh, you know how you gave me heck for spending money in such a way, well I just did it again, thought you'd like to know.
Oh yeh, I just quit smoking, except a few in the evening, but if your into health and fitness than so am I, No, I don't smoke.
Actually being on the internet is freedom to be anyone you want to be, or to be brutally honest about who you are. If we create our own reality then why are we so screwed up?
So here is the truth from a chronic liar. Do you believe me?

the same reasons as women do. God I hate these gender bashing topics. You find me one woman that has never lied. As much as we dont want to admit it or accept it lying is just part of our current culture. Men, women, it doesnt matter. Just as this is the 100th topic I have seen asking why men lie, I have seen 100 more asking why women lie. Get over it and move on with your life. I think this disproves the idea that there is no such thing as a stupid question.
Sorry to be so blunt and rude. I just get annoyed seeing the same crap over and over again.

I think that alot of people learn to lie from an early age. Who stole the cookies from the cookie jar. Not me I didn't do it. For some reason we don't understand that person feels uncomfortable about who they really are. Some people are just lonly and are tierd of being tuned down when they tell the truth and are desperate just to talk to someone.
Alot of times they are just chatting and have no real intention of ever meeting anyone so a lie is more exciting. It dose make it hard for those of us who are out here looking for the right person. And can be very confusing when you think you might have found them but then it was all a lie. It can be a big emotional set back especialy if it took alot of courage on your part to begain looking or had been realy hurt by someone. Telling a lie isnt exculsive for men or women. But honestly if you are truly looking be homest becouse if you really like someone an you meet them if you have lied about yourself it will be there in full view relationships can not be based on lies.

I think that alot of people learn to lie from an early age. Who stole the cookies from the cookie jar. Not me I didn't do it. For some reason we don't understand that person feels uncomfortable about who they really are. Some people are just lonly and are tierd of being tuned down when they tell the truth and are desperate just to talk to someone.
Alot of times they are just chatting and have no real intention of ever meeting anyone so a lie is more exciting. It dose make it hard for those of us who are out here looking for the right person. And can be very confusing when you think you might have found them but then it was all a lie. It can be a big emotional set back especialy if it took alot of courage on your part to begain looking or had been realy hurt by someone. Telling a lie isnt exculsive for men or women. But honestly if you are truly looking be homest becouse if you really like someone an you meet them if you have lied about yourself it will be there in full view relationships can not be based on lies.
