stop lying

I can’t get into the specifics of the conversation but I actually came right out and told someone the full truth recently.

I’m not sure if its just my reaction to this person in particular or a change in my general non-trusting attitude but it was an odd feeling. I’m inclined to believe it’s him because I still feel disinclined to come anywhere near disclosing my deeply personal thoughts with most other people.

its weird to think its so easy to lie now, i have never really thought about it till recently when i started keeping track of little white lies, its really important to me to be honest and i know as lying gets easier it gets more frequent. plus once you lie its too hard to be honest- ugh well with a bad habit it ends with the decision to stop.

Well… If lying wouldn’t save me ass all the time, this would be a lot easier. Sadly, this is more of a ‘moral’ question, not something I want to do consciously. Sadly…

I’ve been a pretty good liar. But I need to stop. Its against Gods rules and its disrespectful. Help me please. Any suggestions

I’ve lied all my life, and I want to stop. I would lie about friends when in reality I don’t have a best friend. I’ve never had, I’ve always been by myself, I envy those with bubbly and outgoing personalities, I would lie about what I did on the weekend, to make it seem like my life was crazy and exciting. I lie to my parents all the time, even my cell group, I lie to them about my life. In actuality, I’m very shy around new people, I have a hard time trusting, I hurt all the time, I sometimes cry myself to sleep, I wish boys would notice me, I’ve been depressed, I’ve tried suicide (I know now that is not the way to solve a problem), I used to drink, cut myself, I was molested younger by my grandfather and a volunteer at my school, I want so much to be skinnier, I wish I could cry, I wish I could swap lives with some of the girls at my school, I wish to have a boyfriend who wants to be with me, I just want to get away sometimes, I hate that everytime someone asks me how I am just smile and say “I’m Fine”. I want to be able to be confident in my relationship with god, I want to just cry and be held sometimes, I could go on forever. Sometimes I just feel so….I don’t know, I have so many problems, and it’s like I’m alone. I lie, to make myself feel better or to get attention. And I know that’s not right, but it’s a bad habit. I just don’t know what to do, I’ve tried just not talking and just going into my own little world all the time, but when I do that, I shut myself off, It’s going to take time…..

Already failed thrice. I think… I don’t think I want to do this right now. I mean… Seriously. I can write a book about why lying is keeping the last bits of my sanity.

Of living a completely bullsh*t free and fully authentic life. It’s not just verbal interactions anymore—it’s pretty much eliminating every filter that hides or distorts who I am to others.

This requires so much presence and commitment to being aware at every moment.

I’m not a person who is dishonest in general, for example, I would never cheat or backstab someone through a lie.

But small white lies I tell, like exaggerating things I do or adding details to make myself look better, stop me from having more friends and make me have less respect for myself.

For the next two weeks, I will watch what comes out of my mouth more closely so I can regain confidence in myself that what I do is adequate.

i have lied to my amazing girl and she found out and noww she cant trust me and she will never be comfy with me how do i stop i need help i have tried anyone have any help any ideas anything ?

I have been lying forever. I am now 31 and there seems no end in sight.
I lie about such small things its ridiculous. I tell myself I am afraid of gettign into trouble, but inevitably I get caught and my husband is just so distrusting.

Today I have just decided to stop this madness.

I am worried that even if I draw a line in the sand, there are things I lied about in the past that if someone asks me about I will be forced to tell teh truth and the disappointment will never end when they find out
