What drives people to LIE?!

I don't get it, i had this one friend that couldn't stop lying out of his arse. Girls apparently flocked to him left and right back in elementary school--yet he was known to be a dork. His unit must have hurt because many girls gave him oral pleasure

Now those aren't the only type of lies my friends and I have uncovered, he's lied about damn near everything under the sun: SAT scores, GRADUATING in his 4th year of hs (something he will not do), about his relationships with girls, etc. I just don't understand, in the beginning we accepted him for what he was. What would make him think that he'd need to plaster his image with these lies?

...and all the lies have been confirmed one way or another. Maybe not the 800 he said he scored in SAT english, we haven't seen proof against or for it. I just think it's a lie because he can't read aloud worth shyt, let alone pronounce difficult words!
 
It's part of the complex... this guy is taking lying to cover up his lies and since he's doing it so often, might as well do it all the time. It's like a disease to some people. My brother was like that... our family's trying to straighten him out.

I'm just a PO'ed about liars as you are... they suck
 
Think Kostanza. It seems to be in some people's nature to lie about everything. I have a friend like that. I often wonder if he really thinks he's fooling anyone, but i see no real good coming from calling him on his lies. They don't put anyone in danger or anything like that. It's just kind of pathetic. And also very Human.

 
I broke up with a girl I wanted to marry because she wouldn't stop lying. She would make up a lie even if the truth was easier to tell. This girl lied to her own mother just as bad. I couldn't deal with it.
 
I've known someone like that, horrible people to be around for sure. What's odd is that his confidence level was amazingly high around people, my only guess is that those people are entirely disconnected from reality(I've only seen it in young males). Have you ever noticed they can take any amount of verbal abuse thrown there way like it's nothing as well?.
 
i knew someone like that...it was so annoying...no one believed a word the boy ever said after a while...it was pretty ridiculus...even the things im sure he wasnt lying about, no one believed him, because u couldnt
 
I agree with the idea of them being disconnected with reality. I mean, if they have formed a habbit of lying since a young age and gotten attention or whatever they want b/c of it, why stop? We all know habbits are difficult to break.

I guess in the end I think they are covering up... They are not confident in who they are, what they are, how their lives are - therefore they lie, even when the truth may sound better. The thing is, they are only lying to themselves and in the end you cannot sustain any true relationships that way.
 
It's funny, because this guy who sits behind my friend in Chem makes up the worst lies ever and he goes, "So last weekend I stole a van from this preschool.." and we interrupt him saying, "No you didn't" and just laugh at him.

The sad part is that they think they're fooling people... but everybody knows they're lying, so why bother with it in the first place? And wouldn't it be a pain in the ass to need to remember all the lies?
