I think because its become so acceptable we tend to think lying is not a big deal but it is. I used to lie all the time that you don't even think twice anymore. A few years ago I made the decision to try to not lie and be as open and honest as possible. I can't say its been easy ive lost many friends and relationships but hey were they even valuable if honesty is what brings them down?
I try to remain as honest as possible, I do slip up from time to time though!
