This is a tough question, in my opinion.
If you lie to them about things that are actually important, it can lead to some bad consequences.
For instance, if there is a married couple, and one asks out of nowhere:
Do you love me?
Then he/she shall deserve the truth.
I think it is more important to tell the other [say for instance]
No I do not love you
Than to say they do and not mean it.
They'd find out soon enough, right?
But if a person asks,
Do I have food on my face?
And the friend says no, although they do, nothing that bad will happen.
Sure, they might get a few stares from people or a couple laughs,
but if you're like me, you'll find out really quickly and you'll just laugh it off.
What my point is, is that if the answer is important enough to the person asking, I think they deserve the truth.
It doesn't need to be all at once;
but people don't need to be padded by lies.
I hope this made sense.

Makes perfect sense -- and I like the examples. In fact, I almost think some people would be better off walking around with food on their faces, while you walk next to them saying, "No, really, I don't see anything. I don't know why all those people are pointing and laughing." I think some people need a lesson in how little the superficial opinions of other matter.
ReplyDeletePersonally I would tell the truth if someone asked if they had food on their face. their would be no purpose in saying anything other than the truth. I wouldn't say anything if they didn't ask me first, but I definitively would give them the truth in this situation.
ReplyDeleteIt made sense to mr. I agree in some points, but I suppose if someone asked me if they had food on there face.... I might just have to be evil and say no, depending on who they were ;)
ReplyDeleteThat makes perfect sense. I wish I answered that question like you answered it. lol I totally agree.
