Is it ever OK to tell a lie to get what you want
Jump to: Newest in thread
"Hypothetically, if I wanted someone to go to the doctors or get help in some way, I would say yes it's justified.
But just to get my own way, no.
" to get your own way no its never right.
To save someone's honour yes to save a person harm yes (but not if its also to save your skin) it's a complex question that requires all variables to be looked at for all lies. In the context of the lies seen on fab I'd say 99.9% of them are unjustifiable |

Not if it's for your own personal gain and it hurts the other person in the process. I'm sure this is has happened to a lot of people. I'd rather know the truth and deal with it. It's also impossible to stop a lie from getting out of control as then you have to tell another lie to back the first one up. Never a good thing x |

"Simple really is it ever OK to tell a lie to get what you want, if so then when what & why "
Yes it is OK in certain circumstances.
If I'm playing poker then I will look you in the eye and lie like fuck if it means I will win the pot or a tourney .
As already said , it's a complicated area and every circumstance is different.
I have given one example when I ready do it.  |

Sometimes people lie so they can slip under the radar
