Why To Lie Novels & Stories

Also, I wasn’t afraid of anyone or of accepting what I did. I took a deep breath and started, “Yes, I did… Her phone was broken so I gave her that. Because – because she doesn’t seem financially strong to me and she could have never afforded that phone so… I gave it to her” “So why did you lie to us?” Dylan asked out loud. “Because I thought you guys would judge me on that too” I said directly. Dylan shook his head and added, “Fine. So you cared for her, right? You would not have done it for any other girl right?”

Next comes an ultimatum or a test. "Do you want me to be honest?" I'd never live if I were honest, but I've learned to lie with ease here. "Please. Entertain me." Be convincing. Be convincing. "I sleep better by you. You take great care of me, and I like your humor and laid back side, but you've damaged my trust. You hurt me, you killed my mom, and that day when we wrestled you were uncomfortable with my leg over you so I thought I'd turn it down a notch. I'm stressed and depressed. If I told you though I'd just get beaten...or poisoned." The lie comes naturally, and sounds much better than admitting my repulsion.

Outside of reality. “Listen up Leila, I do not lie, and why would you think that I am lying to you. What would I gain by lying to you now? I can be anything else, but I’m not a liar Leila. You can either choose to believe or not.” With that, Ryan stood and pushed his seat back. He looked pissed off while Leila now started to take time to really think through what she had insinuated. She had trampled over his honor, and like he asked why would he lie to her.

The grief, pain, and screams all at once returned In droves. "If he truly misses he would have called but he didn’t, he truly misses me he would have responded to the messages I sent but he didn’t, if he truly misses me he would have visited or let me visit but you what! He didn’t" I just had to stop talking; I have nothing to say right now, if I continue talking I would burst into tears. After so many years, of believable lies and fake love, I can’t deal with this anymore. He doesn’t miss me, he doesn’t even care. "Dani!" He sighed

The conversation with Carter roamed through my mind and I realized why she was sad. She froze when she got into her apartment though and she turned to face me. “Why do men lie?” She surprised me by asking. I raised my brows at her question. “I don’t—” “Why can’t they just be honest?” She continued, tears welling in her eyes. “Why does it have to be so hard…” I sighed, knowing she wasn’t going to let this go. “Sometimes they lie to protect those they care about. Because if they knew the truth, it would change how one views the other…”

I had been so hurt and angry when I found out that he had lied to me, but now I could see that he had done it for a good reason, but he was crossing boundaries. "Why didn't you just tell me the truth?" I asked, feeling a mix of emotion. Leo sighed. "I know I should have, but I was afraid that you would say no, or that you would want nothing to do with him. I just wanted to do something special for you, something that would make you happy." I looked at Leo, seeing the sincerity in his eyes. I knew that I had been hurt by his lie, but I also knew that he had done it for a good reason.

“Has it ever crossed your mind that maybe there’s more to that story than what you were told?” I looked up at her slowly. “What do you mean?” “I mean, what if your father didn’t tell you everything?” she said. “What if he hid things from you because he didn’t want you to know the truth? Maybe your mother didn’t abandon you the way you think.” My stomach twisted. “But… why would he lie about something like that?” “People lie for a lot of reasons,” she said gently. “Sometimes out of shame. Sometimes out of guilt. And sometimes… to protect secrets. Secrets that could change everything.”

His fists clenched tighter as he gritted his teeth. "I almost fell for it. After all these years, you've even learned to fake an illness when all you did was lie in the past? Don't fake it so well that you actually die before you even make it home!" James then threw the medical report at my face before pulling Tina away without hesitation. I only snapped out of it when Tina looked back and gave me a victorious gaze. I smiled mockingly at myself. So what if I was his biological sister? No matter what happened, it was my fault as long as Tina was involved. I was the liar.

The guard grabbed Rex's arm. We walked back to the room. The door closed. Lily looked at me. "Why did you lie to her?" I sat on the bed. Pulled her onto my lap. "Because I had to protect you." She hugged me. "Barnaby says lying is bad." I kissed her hair. "Sometimes lying is the only way to keep people safe." She looked at me. "Like when you said we would be okay?" I held her tighter. "Yes. Like that."

“You really care about him, don’t you?” “That’s the problem.” I sat beside her, the weight in my chest growing heavier. “He told me what happened to his brother. It sounded so real. But the records,they don’t match. They say his pack fell because of internal rebellion. There’s no mention of gods. No attacks. Nothing.” Casey was quiet for a long moment. Then she said, “Sometimes love makes you see only the good parts.” I looked at her. “You think he lied?” “I think people lie for reasons,” she said softly. “Sometimes to protect themselves.
