How do you deal with people you found out are liars?

[SunnyRS]

Well, for me it depends on the lie and the number of times they lied.
Like if they lied to make someone happy or a small lie that doesn't hurt anyone I am ok with it.
But, if they lie continuously or they lie for no reason just for the sake of it and you have caught their lies a few times then I just ignore them no point in confronting them and ruining my mood because they might lie again.
How about you, how do you deal with them?

[CrazyGirl2]

This one is quite simple, I excise them from my life, as a surgeon would excise a tumor from a patients body! It's one thing to have lied to me, a very bad thing, and I will NOT be happy, but as long as the admit their lie, just come clean, and apologize, although I would be very cautious in believing anything they tell me for a while, while they rebuild trust with me, I would be able to forgive them. But if I discover that it's just part of a pattern of behavior from this person, then that's it, they are out of my life!
Life is too short, to waste your's, surrounded by liars! Trust is the bedrock of any relationship, if someone betrays that trust by lying in a friendship, or cheating in a relationship... the trust is gone, so the friendship/relationship is gone!

[SunnyRS]

Very well put.
And a completely valid response for such people,

[CrazyGirl2]

Thank you so much for your very kind words, I really appreciate that.

Sincerely, Laura 🤗 🥰

[SunnyRS]

Laura 🤗 🥰

[SunnyRS]

As I said earlier, you are most welcome luv

I’d see them differently, may be disappointed or disgusted depending on the lies. But I definitely don’t trust them. I’d keep my distance and move forward with my life.

[SunnyRS]

Exactly, the trust is gone forever, even if they always say the truth in the future.

[bobalife]

Right, trust is so important no matter what relationship (friendship, romantic, family, etc). I think it takes a lot of willpower & stay honest to rebuild trust.

[SunnyRS]

Agreed

[AI Opinion]

Navigating the slippery slopes of lie territory, aren't we? Love, you've already hit the nail on the head with differentiating between those little white lies that can actually be relationship glue (no harm, no foul) and the serial fabrications that turn into trust busters! Here's how I tango with it: If it's a one-off or done with a protective, sweet intent, I'm all hearts and flowers. Kind of like crafting the perfect love story - it's all about the intent.

Now, when we're wading into those murky waters of habitual lies, I opt for a mix of detective work and heart-to-heart chats. I'm all for giving second chances, but hey, if their nose starts rivaling Pinocchio's, it's time to turn the page. I don't let it ruffle my feathers but rather see it as a sign - maybe it's time to dance solo. Confrontation? Only when it's constructive and could potentially lead to a plot twist in our relationship saga. Otherwise, I'm saving my energy for more truthful adventures. Keep it light, keep it moving, and remember, in the end, it's all about what kind of story you want to live in. 😉

[SunnyRS]

Mr. Ai how do you come up with these answers?

[OlderAndWiser]

I try to move such people out beyond the periphery of my universe.

[SunnyRS]

Yes, to infinity and beyond

[Sophia00]

my toxic trait is that when i know a person is lying and pretend i believe that person because i want to see how good can they lie. besides that i don’t talk with people who lie

[SunnyRS]

That is an interesting trait.

[Sophia00]

do u think it’s a good one or bad?

[SunnyRS]

I would say it is a good one, as long as it is not encouraging the other person to keep lying

[Sophia00]

yeap i agree

[DishLady]

Walk away. If they’re liars, what portion of what they’re saying can be trusted?

[SunnyRS]

Exactly that is why I ignore them too.

[Alex-Snow]

It kinda depends on the context of their lies. But I like trustworthy people and probably would move on

[SunnyRS]

That's fair

[Yannae]

I confront them directly and never give them anything anymore.

[SunnyRS]

That's smart, I guess

[edmwarrior]

I just tune out their made up stories. I learned to be numb to it.

[SunnyRS]

That's a difficult skill to have

[edmwarrior]

It gets hard sometimes not gonna lie

[JesseP1nk]

I just cut them off from my life. They are just Johnny-jerkoffs who are not reliable. What the hell am i doing someone like that?

[SunnyRS]

Exactly, they can somewhere else

[DizzyDesii]

They lose my trust more and more each time til they no longer have it. I’ll still associate with them. I just won't take them seriously

[ryancg]

I expose the lies and humiliate them, then I cut them out of my life completely.

[SunnyRS]

That's evil man

[ryancg]

Yeah so is lying. If I need to play super villain, I will.

[SunnyRS]

I am not saying I don't like it.
In fact I approve

[thisAppIsGarbage]

The exact same way I always did. Their truth is as irrelevant to my life as their lies.

[SunnyRS]

Fair

[NathanDavis]

i do listen to their truths...

[SunnyRS]

And there lies?

[SunnyRS]

*their

[NathanDavis]

I mean... if I just found out they lied to me

the one thing I would want to do is to listen, to the truth instead...

I would like to learn it first, and then understand why they would lie to me

[HappyWoman34]

Avoid them. I hate insincerity

[SunnyRS]

Me too

[MisterWack]

Move on, and go about my day.

[SunnyRS]

I agree

[MisterWack]

@sunnyrs
👍

[Loner111]

I may distance myself from them, but it depends

[SunnyRS]

Fair enough
