I don't because I am definitely one of the worlds worst liars.

Short, sweet and simple 

I've consciously tried to stop telling lies, even white lies, as life is far less complicated.

I used to lie out of pride mostly, covering up anything I was ashamed of or touchy about.

Sorry for getting all heavyyyy  

lol Pirate that's what I would have done too

EC my Mum is the worst liar I've ever met.  It's written all over her face and I can hear it in her voice if she's trying to lie over the phone.  

Ells, it sounds like she is worse than me, but like Roger said, I try not to even tell white lies as life really is less complex when you tell the truth.

I have millions though at heart i'm a very honest person.

I find it very hard to lie.

however . . .

Just passed me driving test and on the way home one dark night in the middle of nowhere thought i'd take the roundabout as fast as posssible.

Hit the kerb and burst the tyre!!

Car ground to a halt on an incline.

Jacked it up to change the tyre and struggled for 30mins as the car rocked on its axle.

Came home caked in oil.

Parents were terrifed i'd been hurt.

"What happened?"

"Well some fool left a brick in the middle of the road and i hit it"

Tra la la laaaah

yeah but a little white one never hurts

ie

Q-'does my arse look big in this?'

A-'OMG YES it looks HUGE'

or

better to say

'Nooooo-dont be silly-you look lovely'?

nice one! 

 Yes *nods* there are times when white lies are a must. 

Y'know how sometimes a pub car park might hang a chain across its entrance when its closed.

Well . . . it does round our way.

Anyhoo . . .

I might have taken a turn too quickly and caught me brother's car on the hook they hang the chain from - ripping a hole about an inch wide from the front to the back of his car.

Then i might have parked his car tight against the wall so he couldn't see the damage when i dropped off his keys.

Only for him to tell me,

"Someone's driven passed my car and torn a hole right across it!!!"

"Bloody HGV's" i said.

Dum dee dum dum

i think i started this fred for you!

At work

"Does the petty cash balance?"

"Y-e-s"

 . . . . . as i'm emptying the contents of my pocket into the tin.

 You dodged a bullet there

I don't lie very often, but when I don't want to go to an appt or something like that I'll ring up and change it and say......there's something come up 

I'm the world's worst liar, it's as if I have some truth serum coursing through my veins. It drives my husband nuts because I can never think up little white lies for those awkward occasions. However, I try not to hurt people's feelings, so if a friend was about to choose an outfit which made her look like a bag of rags, I'd try to steer her onto something more flattering.

Edit: I may have given hubby some edited versions of things, ie how many votes I made during BB - not lies, just not the whole truth.

See, I had to add that last bit because I felt I wasn't telling the whole truth.

Thankfully I haven't been put in that position too often, but on the odd occasion I go out with my sis in law I'm normally truthful there, but then again I've got no fashion sense 

I'm sure you are diplomatic, Sprout.

I can be when I want to be 

 I'm sure you are.

yeah like them gold 'kylie' hotpants you told me to buy

you said 'everyone is wearing them this year'

i looked a right tit at glastonbury

ooh look

i lied

I can lie to the rafters to officialdom, but in my private life, I cannot lie at all. I have to be able to look ppl in the eye.

"Did you pack this bag yourself?"

"Well . . . ."
