Do you think you would still have friends and family if you could not tell a lie?

[Simslover92]

I think I would be hated if I could not lie. I think most people would.

[MannMitAntworten]

Family wise they are gone. Friends … I am probably already too candid as it is. I might have to learn just not to say anything at all in that regard. HA!

[Bklynbadboy12]

I know I'd be hated

[Simslover92]

Haha yep I definitely would too.

[Bklynbadboy12]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[Bklynbadboy12]

Thanks for the MHO

[Simslover92]

You're welcome!

[ohsheeT]

Haha. No. It really the other way around because people know they can trust you.

And if you think your going to hurt someone es feeling by. Being honest o well. And at the same time you don't have to answer somebody because they want to know something. It's no one's Business..


I look at things like this I do every thing for a reason the reason is because I believe it's the right way. And just because I'm doing it that way doesn't mean I'm right. But I believe I am in that moment. And if some one ask me who did this or that. Well I did I'm not going to lie about it

I had a boss that would tell me where I was going to be working and the job I had to do. I would say OK great seeya the she would say wait how are you going to do the job

I would tell her and she would tell me no you can't do it that way.
I would ok tell me how you want it done she would tell me

And I would say no. There's no reason for that it will take twice as long and cost three times more then if we did it my way . she would say I don't care do it my way. I would it's the wrong way but if that's how you want me to do it I will

Get done with the job go back in to the office she would say did it go OK and I would say perfect.. and she would say how did you do it. And I would tell her the exact same way. I told you I was gonna do it When I went to get the materi said forget this this is the wrong way so I did it my way... she said ok how come you didn't tell me you did it the way I told you too.

I because I don't need to lie about it I saved you a few thousand dollars In material and a few thousand dollars in labor

And she would say I can't believe you didn't lie to me I said so that would be ok with you

She said but everyone else does. I said i do t ever feel the need to I said you hired me to do Jo s for you your paying me the amount of money your paying me because I told you I can do it all and save you money. So why would I lie about anything

She said I'm glad you did it your way I did more research and my way was ok but no reason to go thar far I said yes I know.

I have people give me the keys to there homes there Businesses because they know that I'm not going to take anything and I know I'm not going to lie I'd anything happens

Even better yet my son was about 7 years old and one of my friends came by
I was on the phone and my son and friend were talking then I hear them make a bet..

I get off the phone and my son said dad what's the answer to this. We hat ever the bet was. My son was wrong and he was saying no way dad. I said yes way

Well my friend leaves and my son said I'm mad at you dad
I said what for and he said because you could have said I was right so I could have won the bet. I said true. But why would I lie. And he said because we have the same blood We are related. I said what foes that have to do with any thing. He said a lot. I said you know what. Your right. It dies have a lot to fo with every thing. If I would have lie and said you won. Then what he said he would have one 1 dollar. I said what else he said nothing else.

I said yes. If I would have do that I would been teaching you it's ok to lie. I said why would I do that
I said what would hurt you more losing a dollar. Or me teaching you it's ok to lie he. Said your right. I'm glad you were honest thank you I Saud I will tell you something right now I will never lie to you or for you he said ok I Saud do you understand what I just said and he said yes and that's the way I want it. And I think that's when I really changed because I'm sure I had lied before. Well I know I did but after that talk I made it a point not to lie. And now I read people so well it sycks when they lie to me. Sometime I will call them on it. And sometimes I will look deep in to there eyes and say ok. But they know I know the truth

[Chazmatazz269]

I haven’t lied in over fifteen years. It can be difficult; particularly if you don’t practice tact. I have learned to tell people, mostly women, that if they really want to know something i will give them one chance to reconsider their query or request. After i warn them that they most likely won’t like my honest response, i tell them to ask me again. Some do, some don’t. Some handle it better than i expect, some worse.
It is difficult because there is a certain amount of “white lies” that has become socially acceptable. Yet i wholly disagree. The truth always comes out, no exceptions. When it does, you can hurt someone with a painful truth or you can lie to them, possibly for years. When the truth does come out, the heart of the matter is still painful AND they know you lied to them; doubling the insult and injury.
Regardless of what they say, people lie to protect themselves, not anyone else.
Full stop.

[Lynx122]

Yes I do :) That's one nice thing about being autistic you notice people are kinda put off by you but at some point you're like at least the people that are in my life I know they actually like me. I think I still have some sides of myself that are supressed or I haven't discovered yet but as I am right now I almost always tell the truth anyway. I could be wrong but I don't know I'm optimnistic about it :)

[strateguy632]

I would lose every gal instantly if i had to tell my real opinions or thoughts. Especially in America, only in Europe is it safe for me to protect infants from knife circumcision!

[MrChinaski]

I have taken that approach for a couple of years now.

I still have some friends and family.

The rest were detritus.

[MrChinaski]

I was upset that a woman on here left conversation with me and I assume that was because of my 100% honesty, but life moves on.

[NathanDavis]

yes... my friends can take the truth

and my face can't lie anyway... lol

[sage2021]

I don't lie so I don't know what that's like. I totally believe in honesty 💯 %!

[TonyMetal___86]

Well i have lost many of people because i don't lie, but in the end tha majority became thankful to me because i was honest with them!

[Anonymous]

Yeah. Because I'm pretty honest already and people seem cool wit it.

[Lilly1979]

Probably not or if I don't sugar coat it.

[talka20]

Yeah

[jahaims]

I don't lie to people I care about
