The worst feeling is being lied to.

Being lied to hurts...(or at least it does to me). I feel like all lies, no matter how small, are wrong. I know of quite a few people that are currently lying to their spouses, and to their friends, and I feel confused about who is really ever telling the truth anymore. I have one particular friend who is currently being decietful. I try to offer advice to her about lying to her spouse and still try to be a good friend...somehow I try to be a good listener and advise her not to be decietful. I don't understand how people can lie and do things behind their loved ones back...even if things have gotten hard between them. How can people cheat on their spouses? It is so wrong. Why do people need to lie about where they are going or what they want to do. Chances are, what they would rather be doing wouldn't upset the other as much as if they lie to them about it. There are people in my life, that prior to this year..I honestly thought they were not liars but honest people. One of my closest friends has shocked me. I feel very disappointed. I can't trust her judgement anymore if she will do the decietful things she is doing. There are other close people in my life that have been lying here and there to me this year. Maybe they always have..but I just trusted they did not. As much as it hurts to discover that people lie to you even when they say they love you or say that they "don't" lie...I guess you have to just move onto focusing on being honest yourself. That is all you can do. For me, when you lie about even a small thing...it ruins the trust all the same. And what is so unfair...is that of all these liars I have just talked about...I am honest and I get lied to. Being lied to hurts.
