What Do You Think?
What do you think about others that need attention and lie to get it. What goes through your mind when you find out? what if they're lying to protect themselves or someone else? What are all your opinions.
I don't like it when others lie to me but I can deal with it. when someone lies to me I don't know what runs through my mind I just know that they are lying and don't particularily like it. If they are lying to protect someone else I try to find out why if they are lying to protect themselves again I will try to find out why. Sometimes when people lie there can be a serious situation behind it that they want to hide so they lie. Wheater it be abuse their using drugs hurting themselves or ect. I think it's better to ask questions than to get on the person's case about lying. Because that way it is easier for them to open up sometimes show them you care and I feel that they will open up a lot easier.

Re: What Do You Think?
I think people that lie are just in for attention or think its a joke.
It shouldn't be accepted and they should suffer the conciquences of it.
And if they try to cover they're lie up, it just makes THEM look 1000 times worse.
People get sick of liars VERY easily.

Re: What Do You Think?
I don't see this ending up very well .<
I don't really get what you are saying, as you are scattering your sentences a bit. If you are lying to protect yourself, I think there are certain ways of dealing with it. Not everyone can deal with it in the same way. We're at a Helping site with others around our age that are dedicating their time to other teens. If, in any way, these topics relate to you, then you wouldn't be lying necessarily, would you? But you have to understand, there's no reason to lie about your problems here to protect anyone. Everyone's problem is serious in some way, so what's the difference if you're afraid of a sibling, or taking drugs? They're problems.
That's how I don't understand what you are talking about. In the manner you're asking us...?

Re: What Do You Think?

Re: What Do You Think?
No. People give up on LIARS.
Theres a diffrence.
If you hurt yourself for attention; you need help. And we're here to help.
But we do NOT tolerate liars.

Re: What Do You Think?
I feel that if someone is going to lie on this website with posts, EVERYONE, regardless of what you may think of the poster should RESPOND with POSITIVE feedback on THE WRITTEN situation that WOULD HELP OTHERS who actually do have the issue the "lying" person is writing about.
This is a HELP site is it not?
It IS INDEXED by search engines is it not? SOMEONE will benefit from the answer to a lier's question when it's Googled..

If this thread does not stay civil and respectful it WILL be closed.
Adam, I agree with you. Although there is never a need to lie here - we are not here to judge, I believe that it should be handled in a non judgemental way and that feedback should be given in the same way it would if someone hadn't lied.

Re: What Do You Think?
lucky you know how i feel about lying
i would much rather help someone with their actual problems, than try to help them with a lie, i jump on peoples cases about lying because i do see that most of them have underlying (no pun intended) problems.

Yeah. I don't like being lied to because of the work I would put into trying to communicate with the person; but you know what? It's okay. Cause if the person wants to lie, it's not my job to stop and judge. I will help out if I can. And yeah, I think everyone here should be doing the same. It gets annoying, it really does, to help someone who seemingly won't get out of lying, but whatever. Gots to do what you gots to doo
Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.

Re: What Do You Think?
Thanks everyone for your feedback it makes me feel good that you are honest and say what you want to say without holding it in. I myself deal with liars everyday and am used to it but that doesn't make it right. I agree with what everyone here is saying but I still have my own opinions. And my opinions that I have posted before I will stand beside.
