Lie & Truth
1 It seems that everybody tells lies – well, not big lies, but what we call “white lies.” Telling white lies isn’t really that bad. Most of the time, people do it because they want to protect a friendship. Some studies suggest that the average person lies about seven times a day. The only real questions are about when we lie and who we tell lies to. A recent study found that people frequently stretch the truth. Here are some ways they do it.
2 #1 Lying to hide something: People often lie because they want to hide something from someone. For example, a son doesn’t tell his parents that he’s dating a girl because he doesn’t think they will like her. Instead, he says he’s going out with guys.
3 #2 Giving false excuses: Sometimes people lie because they don’t want to do something. For example, someone invites you to a party. You think it will be boring, so you say you’re busy.
4 #3 Lying to make someone feel good: Often we stretch the truth to make someone feel good. For example, your friend cooks dinner for you, but it tastes terrible. Do you say so? No! You probably say, “Mmm, this is delicious!”
5 #4 Lying to hide bad news: Sometimes we don’t want to tell someone bad news. For example, you have just had a very bad day at work, but you don’t feel like talking about it. So if someone asks you about your day, you just say everything was fine.
Look at these situations. Are they examples of # 1, 2, 3, or 4?
- ...... You borrowed a friend’s motorcycle and scratched it. You’re having it painted. When your friend wants the motorcycle back, you say the engine didn’t sound right and you’re having it checked.
- ...... Your friend gives you an ugly vase for your birthday. You say, ‘Oh, it’s beautiful!’
- ...... You lost your job and are having trouble finding a new one. An old friend calls to find out how you are. You tell your friend you’re busy writing a book.
- ...... Someone you don’t like invites you to a movie, so you say, ‘I’ve already seen it.’
- ...... You’re planning a surprise party for a friend. To get her to come over at the right time, you ask her to stop by to see your new VCR.
