on every white lie you catch? Or do you let it go and keep a mental file to possibly be used in a future argument?

laugh I let them go. I'll call them out if it's something big or I feel like they're trying to play me, but generally it's not worth the hassle. One has to be careful though that those white lies are not constant and don't become big fat lies. That'd be bad.

Agree, but would only use something in a discussion, if they are being hypocritical as an example. Wouldn't throw it in their face though, not nice.

If I wanted to call him out, I'd do it on the spot, not throw it in his face later. Just me flowerforyou

I agree 100%.

And I'm not the type to bring it up later. The past is the past... leave it there.

I used to question all of the big ones & some of the white ones...untill I realized it was pathological & didn't believe anything he said...just made it easier that way...

The trick is not to place that mistrust on the next one...who wants to live constantly looking over your shoulder?

I wouldn't know

papersmile has never lied to me. not even white lies. if I look fat in these pants she'll tell me. and I appreciate that. because of that she has my absolute faith and confidence in everything she says to me

Let's see if it works in reverse: Does my butt look fat in these jeans?

I have always wondered, what is a "white" lie? Is it worse than say a black lie? What is that saying? Where does it come from?

I always call out anyone who I believe is lying to me. The only time I hesitate is if I am not sure that it is a lie, further research or detective work is needed to call it.

Supposedly, white lies are told to "spare feelings" not to hide a misdeed.

No, I quietly forgive, as long as nobody is getting hurt.
