I think that a lot of "lies" could be more aptly described as survival techniques. If I was more honest I'd spend a lot of time admitting I was hurt by people or disappointed in people. However, I think it's best to cover up a lot of this and just get on with it, or there'de be no getting out of bed, you know? Besides, I always get the sense that if you let people know your vulnerable side, it can be (and is) used against you.I'm not a people hater by the way! Or a whinger!
