Do You Lie?

Post Reply New Topic

*nods* When I was younger, I just didn't have the ability to lie. It was rather pathetic seeing me try actually Now I do the same thing as you (though I would lend 20 cents), use my reputation as an Aspie to my advantage when it comes to some of the ignorant jerks. Basically I can be as blunt as I want, and they'll put it down to the condition. Heehee
I sometimes can withhold the truth if I see the truth being somewhat close to my lie, but I can't do an outright one.

I'm no good at lying because I normally end up laughing. Although I can do it for a joke.

I find it difficult, and often pay the price for it. However I have learned to tell less than the whole truth a lot because of this. Intentional lying for my own benefit isn't something I can do.

When I lie, it's usually a joke.

As an AS in a world that is still ignorant to it, of course I lie, to protect myself.

Hell, I feel my entire life is a sham sometimes, thus I'm even lying to myself.

Certainly prefer not to though. Unfortunately society expects certain thigs of us, and there's only so much grain I can go against if I want to be a part of it (a teeny tiny part, it seems).

Can I lie? Yes.
Have I gotten away with a lie? Yes.
Do I lie often? Often enough.

Sometimes I'll tell a very minor lie, but other than that pretty much every time I have tried to lie people either question me or already know.

No and i don't see the point of lying.

Naive of you. Everybody lies these days pretty much, you get yourself left behind on the game.

I do lie, but I'm not good at it, I usually laugh and when I'm caught I'm like "NO NO IM TELLING THE TRUTH!" which makes it really obvious I am lying, so I do prefer honesty, but I'm not an obnoctious prick. When other people lie I often end up thinking they're telling the truth.

I do lie when I'm joking

I never lie.

Generally speaking i refrain from doing so (Lying)
It takes a lot more time and effort to come up with something that sounds convincing to others.
(Not that the truth is much easier for them to believe, usually) But at least with the truth I’ll have something solid to back me up with. (Hopefully)

I lie even when it's unnecessary. Sometimes I do it just to see how easily I can get away with it.

I can lie, but I'm not good at it. I usually freeze up and it's easy to tell. I can't get away with it, so why bother?

I don't lie too much now...

BUT

When I was younger I used to make up crazy stories.
Notably when I was 7 I pretended to know sign language to my mom and said someone at school taught me because their grandmother was deaf.
My mom then was talking to the boy's parents and the deafness came up and they told my mom she was not deaf.
Haha. I found that quite entertaining.

There really was a whole string of similar events.
