lie less

It would probably uncomplicate things a lot… not that I have such a problem with veiling the truth, but sometimes it’s hard to keep up.

edit:
I sound such an awful person!

I don’t even realize I lie so much. Stupid, harmless stuff. Like, ‘Tomorrow I’ll go with a friend’ or something like that.

It has to stop. I ended one of my lies with another one, but that’s supposed to be the end of it.

From now on, I’ll be absolutely conscious of my conversations, to monitor when I’m about to lie.

The little green “I want to do this!” button basically says it all.

i NEED to stop lying about things, especially to people i’ve just met. i always lie to try to impress them, or to make myself feel better about my own shortcomings, and i’ve noticed that what usually start off as little white lies end up getting me into a lot of trouble.

Stop telling little white lies. It will never be a good thing.

not so much lie, but be completely honest. If someone says ‘are you ok’ and I’m not, I will say ‘no I am not’ as opposed to yes I am great!!!

Ive done my fair share of lying. I’ve slowly stopped lying as much. Now, I actually feel guilty when I lie. It feels nice to actually have a conscience.

See title, but add a few more “Icky”s

I’m a compulsive liar, but very few people realize this.
I lie about very stupid things, usually when a conversation is getting boring or akward.
Sometimes when I just want attention.
I don’t even realize I’m doing it anymore.
I have never lied about anything serious, it’s always dumb stuff.
“My sister got her left leg amputated and now she has to wear a prosthetic.”
Or whatever.
It’s really fucking stupid, honestly.
And I’d kind of like to stop, or at least cut down, because it’s become kind of a controlling habit.
Compulsive lying actually runs in my family. I don’t know if it’s a genetic trait, I’ve never bothered to look it up, but more likely we just rub off on eachother.
My brother lies just as much as I do, if not more.
I guess we both kind of do it for self-amusement.
He always says, “If you can make yourself laugh, you don’t need anyone else”

I’m looking for someone who wouldn’t mind talkng to me about being a compulsive liar. I’m writing an article about compulsive lying, and I’m trying to help people understand the problem a little better.
