my first blogs (from the year 2000!) 6 of 8:

there are 4 characteristics of liars and 3 charcteristics of truth tellers....

=====================

4 types of liars:...

~people who lie for self image...(eg. ppl who lie about personal experiences in order to gain respect from peers)

~people who lie to escape responsibility....(eg. someone who lies to get out of trouble...or someone who lies to get their own way...)

~people who lie to keep the truth from others...(eg. someone who lies in order to not hurt someone elses feelings...)

~people who lie for amusement...(eg. prank calling)

=====================

3 types of truth tellers....

~people who tell the truth because they feel obligated

~people who tell the truth because of their concience

~people who tell the truth because they just dont care enough to lie...

i think that people who tell the truth just because they feel obligated are infact hipocrites....they are the ones who take on the characteristics of those who lie to keep the truth from others...they are so self concience of themselves that they couldnt bear to offend n e one else....

the people who tell the truth because of their concience are the ones that feel guilt when considering the 4 characteristics of liars.....

tellin the truth because u just dont care...is a vital characteristic of truth tellers....it reanalyzes the concience characteristics by not desiring the 4 gains of lying...
