Stop lying. Most of all stop lying to yourself. Don't tell a single lie ever again! Even shitty little white ones, put your hands up and say no, I can't. Don't keep secrets.

This doesn't mean you have to answer every direct questions sent your way, you can always choose not to answer.

If you don't lie, then you'll never fear being caught out ever again. If you don't understand, admitting it, will help you learn, quicker, faster, stronger.

In time, once this method fully kicks in. You'll begin to believe in yourself. Know your weaknesses as well as you know you strengths. You'll have confidence in everything you say. The confidence to admit defeat when you're wrong. The confidence to walk up to the person you're attracted to. The confidence to know whether you are attracted. The confidence to let it someone down gently and with compassion, kindness and empathy.

Arrogance is not confidence. Being a nellyknow-it-all isn't confidence. Climbing on the backs of others isn't confidence. Rolling with the crowd, mob rule isn't confidence. Being Dom doesn't mean your confident.

Be honest you, that takes confidence. Hope that helps someone.

I can't lie to save my life, my face is too expressive and I have the worst memory ever. My mum always told me "to be a good liar, you have to have a good memory". My family and friends appreciate my honesty and if I have nothing nice to say I generally keep quiet x

Yup, I fully agree, I managed for over 20 years without a single lie, and it's something I can still avoid 99% of the time (and would be 100% if I were in a monogamous relationship).

Even the biggest narcissist I know, a compulsive liar, said 'You know what I like about you? It doesn't matter what I ask you, I know I'll get an honest answer.' Sad irony.

Being truthful is a good thing, but always being truthful is just abstaining yourself from responsibility of other people’s well-being.

Sometimes people can’t take hearing the truth, or can’t take all of it right now. There are ways of saying things that put their feelings first which can be more important than the one-dimensional “I’m going to tell the truth, whatever the effect”

No-one says you need to overload people with opinions they can't cope with - but I totally disagree with the previous point, IMO one's responsibility to someone is only fulfilled by telling them the truth without causing them unecessary harm. That is the challenge, and I do not claim it is always easy.

But telling someone the truth might be that you don’t like them.

However if you don’t tell them that, there’s the chance that getting to know them better will mean you do like them. You’ve made a good connection and made two peoples lives better.

There is a whole theological argument that could stem from this, but I'll avoid it for now.

However, the difference between a lie, your perspective of the truth and the exploration of ideas and concepts could all be categorised as lies.

Telling a young child that there is a mysterious benefactor that bestows gifts in exchange for year long best behavior is fundamentally corrupt or whimsical harmlessness depending on your viewpoint.

Nothing wrong with keeping secrets and nothing wrong with little white lies either. Santa is a lie, Easter bunny is a lie. My location on fab is a lie. My mum thinks my life is perfect and I have no problems, that’s a white lie. Sometimes there’s a need for little white lies in my opinion.

Breaking the cycle is hard when life is made more difficult and unpleasant by telling the truth to people who don't want to hear it.

Ive stopped lying to myself about situations, but the truth can be a pretty miserable swap.

That's because it's almost inevitably in response to being asked how you are - which is so often trotted out as a social niceity without any real interest in how you actually are .... a double lie if you like. It's crazy - you know they don't care, they know you know they don't care, they know you might not be fine, you know they know this ... but 'etiquette' seems to demand we go through this pointless exercise!

That's because it's almost inevitably in response to being asked how you are - which is so often trotted out as a social niceity without any real interest in how you actually are .... a double lie if you like. It's crazy - you know they don't care, they know you know they don't care, they know you might not be fine, you know they know this ... but 'etiquette' seems to demand we go through this pointless exercise!"

. Yep it’s just a ritual or a pastime, rather than a meaningful conversation. I like to change it up by stating exactly how I’m feeling and watch the look on their face

"The most common lie told is ‘I’m fine’. I can’t see that ending any time soon

Also, when asked generally it’s a response that usually suits both parties.

I’m pretty sure the shop assistant was looking to hear how bad my weekend had been when he asked this earlier."

Just tell them anyway, that'll teach them!

"Nothing wrong with keeping secrets and nothing wrong with little white lies either. Santa is a lie, Easter bunny is a lie. My location on fab is a lie. My mum thinks my life is perfect and I have no problems, that’s a white lie. Sometimes there’s a need for little white lies in my opinion. "
Santa's a lie....NO that cant be true.

You've got choices, you can pick holes in what I'm saying and be as fickle, finite, definitive, argumentative, divisive, destructive with the words I'm using.

Or.. You can take the general jist n jibe of it and use it help you grow a bit.

Do I tell the odd lie? Yes, I do. Usually accidentally, out of habit, or fear. I did go through a stage where I told no lies and had no filter. It felt exactly like the film 'Liar Liar' and I got into sticky situations arose.

I tell the odd white lie too. To save from causing undue pain to someone. Will lie about Christmas, but looking forward to finally getting the credit that fat fictional fuck gets.

People still liked me during and after Liar Liar mode. The things that got me into sticky situations, were usually the negative misconceptions and preconceptions I was harbouring about myself or others. Getting it all out in the open, soon makes you question your own version of truth.

I'm not saying every lie is a bad one. I'm not saying this is the only way. This is my way. It works for me and if that helps someone else.. then fuck it, it's worth looking like a dick, by posting it in the first place.

It might not work for everyone, it might get YOU killed if you're a complete dick. *Jackass warning!* If you are desperate and you are struggling getting anywhere on here. Than that's my first bit of advice.

- Be honest with yourself and others.

Next time someone says "Hi how are you?" Sock 'Em with the truth.. like Witchdoctor said. If only to see the look on their face.

Who knows, they may even have a solution to it, once they finish laughing/crying/hyperventilating.

"Stop lying. Most of all stop lying to yourself. Don't tell a single lie ever again! Even shitty little white ones, put your hands up and say no, I can't. Don't keep secrets.

This doesn't mean you have to answer every direct questions sent your way, you can always choose not to answer.

If you don't lie, then you'll never fear being caught out ever again. If you don't understand, admitting it, will help you learn, quicker, faster, stronger.

In time, once this method fully kicks in. You'll begin to believe in yourself. Know your weaknesses as well as you know you strengths. You'll have confidence in everything you say. The confidence to admit defeat when you're wrong. The confidence to walk up to the person you're attracted to. The confidence to know whether you are attracted. The confidence to let it someone down gently and with compassion, kindness and empathy.

Arrogance is not confidence. Being a nellyknow-it-all isn't confidence. Climbing on the backs of others isn't confidence. Rolling with the crowd, mob rule isn't confidence. Being Dom doesn't mean your confident.

Be honest you, that takes confidence. Hope that helps someone.

"

I like this idea! Way too many fibber fabbers on here....

....but, isn't honesty dependent on your perspective and sometimes you don't know what the honest answer is even if you think the honest answer is to say that you honestly don't know, maybe you do know if you know what I mean? I think the key is to be honest with yourself, but for 98% of forum users, if they managed that self honesty, I think they'd log out....

Woah... I need to break that down..

1. Yes, based on perspective.

2. Yes, often you don't know what the honest answer is, which is when it's best to say "I don't know".

The last bit is down to your own personality and being. Choosing not to share or be as open as I am, isn't dishonest. It's sensible, but you need to communicate effectively to get what you want, as much as you want , when you want it. Things tend to go wrong when you lie or mislead.. possibly not shared as much as you should have, overshared, stressing over appearance, chemistry, timekeeping, sincerity, performance, potential drama from other lies, lost money, lost dignity, loss of self confidence.

Big lies, I've told enough to know.

I'd respect you for your honesty. I'd also respect you for the intelligence you used, words you chose and points you made, so bravely, infront of an audience no less Youre very brave and cheeky, i like it.

I'd say you're wrong on all accounts.

I saw a post this morning from a Forumite losing confidence, I even copied his thread title a bit. Plus Deathwolf (he won't mind, as he's volunteered up the info himself already) was a bit grumpy the other night. I tell most people that, behind the scenes, in some way or another. Helps form bonds.

I thought, if it helped him, it may help someone else.

I'd respect you for your honesty. I'd also respect you for the intelligence you used, words you chose and points you made, so bravely, infront of an audience no less Youre very brave and cheeky, i like it.

I'd say you're wrong on all accounts.

I saw a post this morning from a Forumite losing confidence, I even copied his thread title a bit. Plus Deathwolf (he won't mind, as he's volunteered up the info himself already) was a bit grumpy the other night. I tell most people that, behind the scenes, in some way or another. Helps form bonds.

I thought, if it helped him, it may help someone else.

If that's what makes me look good on here, you lot must be awful But it's not why I posted "

Haha, cool, you always look good you clever, sexy little bugger. I appreciate your posts , but I'll always disagree with practically everyone, unless I truly love you....

(I could still be lying)

"Stop lying. Most of all stop lying to yourself. Don't tell a single lie ever again! Even shitty little white ones, put your hands up and say no, I can't. Don't keep secrets.

This doesn't mean you have to answer every direct questions sent your way, you can always choose not to answer.

If you don't lie, then you'll never fear being caught out ever again. If you don't understand, admitting it, will help you learn, quicker, faster, stronger.

In time, once this method fully kicks in. You'll begin to believe in yourself. Know your weaknesses as well as you know you strengths. You'll have confidence in everything you say. The confidence to admit defeat when you're wrong. The confidence to walk up to the person you're attracted to. The confidence to know whether you are attracted. The confidence to let it someone down gently and with compassion, kindness and empathy.

Arrogance is not confidence. Being a nellyknow-it-all isn't confidence. Climbing on the backs of others isn't confidence. Rolling with the crowd, mob rule isn't confidence. Being Dom doesn't mean your confident.

Be honest you, that takes confidence. Hope that helps someone.

I like this idea! Way too many fibber fabbers on here....

....but, isn't honesty dependent on your perspective and sometimes you don't know what the honest answer is even if you think the honest answer is to say that you honestly don't know, maybe you do know if you know what I mean? I think the key is to be honest with yourself, but for 98% of forum users, if they managed that self honesty, I think they'd log out....

Woah... I need to break that down..

1. Yes, based on perspective.

2. Yes, often you don't know what the honest answer is, which is when it's best to say "I don't know".

The last bit is down to your own personality and being. Choosing not to share or be as open as I am, isn't dishonest. It's sensible, but you need to communicate effectively to get what you want, as much as you want , when you want it. Things tend to go wrong when you lie or mislead.. possibly not shared as much as you should have, overshared, stressing over appearance, chemistry, timekeeping, sincerity, performance, potential drama from other lies, lost money, lost dignity, loss of self confidence.

Big lies, I've told enough to know.

How do we know you're telling us the truth now? You have form....

Good answer Tell no lies, then you'll trust yourself to know if I'm telling you the truth (as I see it).

In the middle

I don’t tell lies, tell the truth and shame the devil plus the fact I’m not clever enough to remember what I’ve said half the time as it is
