[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 327027"] Fran...toooo funny and experience tells me....might very well be true too! I don't know why they lie. Perhaps it is low self esteem. They don't want you to see them in a poor light. They don't even want to see themselves that way. Or it is a lack of accountability. Fear...of some kind.... Thrill seeking is a possibility. But again, I do think low self esteem could be part of that...in that this is the only way they could feel good about themselves...pulling the wool over someone's eyes. However, telling the truth really is the beginning of health....very hard to get this point across. As we all know...can end up a dangerous thing. Therapy could be helpful...that unconditional positive regard might provide a safe haven. [/QUOTE]
