Everyone Lies

Everyone lies, and that is a fact we can't get away from, but lying to your significant other can and will result in overwhelming damage to your relationship. I didn't need to tell you that though, it's pretty obvious. Lying is very rarely ever a good thing because a lie is just another worry you have to think about every time whatever you lied about is brought up. Like Mark Twain once said "If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything". There is good lies as in planning a surprise for your loved one... and to be quite honest every other good lie falls in the surprising category(although most lies in general are surprising unless you're expecting them). Bad lies can be even something mild: let's say you kissed someone before you met your now boyfriend or girlfriend; You'd be shocked at how many people will actually lie about it to their partner even though it is something completely out of your partner's control and it's nothing you should ever worry about since it happened before your relationship. Yet, people lie about these things. Now this lie is implanted in your mind and every time this is somehow a conversation, you will have to lie over and over. You're not only lying to your partner, you lie to yourself and it will get to a point where you wish you would have just said it straight from the get go. Because if this simple measly little lie is ever exposed, your partner will wonder what else you lie about. Simply that something so small that could have been said wasn't said truthfully is a million times worse to many people than saying something they wish they didn't hear, but at least was honestly said. It'll be your downfall over the stupidest situation because you have created trust issues and people have different opinions on what broken trust can do no matter the size of the lie. It's crazy to think how something so irrelevant could even cause dangerous consequences. But that is the truth about lies; they are comforting and most of the time '' even if you don't know it '' what people prefer to hear. All it takes is one to have everything shatter. And many times it's the people with the smallest lies revealed that end up having the bigger ones hidden - Pream Anand
