    How many times a day do you lie ?





    The average person lies 2.93 times a day

    http://curiosity.discovery.com/quest...erson-tell-lie

    According to a study conducted by University of Massachusetts ... and it doesn't take long for children to learn they can manipulate their parents -- many children begin to lie at the age of 2 or 3.

    Most of us, I believe, ask not how many times you lie per day, but how many lies you tell in one post.

    People lie because they have done something they don't want to admit to or to gain an unfair advantage.

    I rarely lie because I don't need to. I admit what I have done, and do not try to gain an advantage on people by lying.

    Let's test that


    Your children are in fear. They are well hidden in a safe place.

    You encounter a gunman. He demands you show him the hiding place.

    A. You lie to him
    B. You inform him were they are.

    Others have to earn the right to be told the truth. People should look at the truth as their personal property and should have no reason to submit to a demand that they give it away to those who, by their behavior, haven't proved they deserve it.

    Suppose someone wants change for a five-dollar bill, which you have but would rather keep your ones just in case. Don't tell him that and risk an argument; just say you have less than five ones.

    But the answer is she would no more lie than you would.

    I was speaking in general. Others have made good points, too. So ignore what I have said.

    I lie four or five times a day. Keeps me in practice for when I really need it.

    Sometimes just to myself.
    Not Debatable.

    I shot a note to @exotix that can be confirmed by same. I am still waiting for exotix to tell me the truth as to which sex exotix is. I am waiting for the truth. Funny how long it has been since being told the truth by exotix.
