Would You Lie

[Lynnie]

Thinking it would save someone's feelings, knowing, however that if the lie was revealed, it would devastate your relationship with that person?

No!!!! Two personality traits that I hate - a liar and a thief!!!!!!!

Depends, if it's something trivial like their clothing or choice of makeup yes; however if it were something more serious like an obvious alcohol problem, drug addiction, or other life threatening issue then no.

That's your second fork in the road question today. Both are interesting. First there was the science/art (if you had to choose).

Hell yes you lie. If you don't you immediately ruin the person and your relationship. You want to postpone that as long as possible. There's a chance that the lie will never be revealed, and all will be well. I'm assuming that there is no real benefit to telling the truth in this case, other than to avoid being caught lying later. In other words the truth will not help the person with his or her life in any way.

Personally, I prefer honesty. I cannot hate to be lied to. The truth I can handle, a lie I cannot. I guess you have a decision to make!! Good luck!!

I have no decision to make. My post is for fodder.

Tried it, trying to juggle two friends who are not that friendly with each other, got caught, still trying to make up. Won't ever do that again!!!Lesson learned

Does a visible booger count?

Depends on whether it matches her outfit.
