The 15 Most Common Lies . . . How Many Do You Admit to Using?

 

There are a lot of reasons people LIE . . . anything from not wanting to hurt someone's feelings, to not wanting to implicate themselves in a liquor store robbery. 

  

Most of them are "little white lies" that are mundane or even unnecessary . . . because the other person may not care, or may realize it's a lie anyway.

  

In a new survey, 42% of people say they think their little lies are CONVINCING. Another 42% admit that a lie has come back to haunt them. And 51% of people say they feel guilty when they don't tell the truth, even for something small.

  

The survey also produced a list of the 15 most common lies. They are:

  

1. "I forgot."

 

2. "I'll do it tomorrow."

 

3. "I am listening."

 

4. "I'm busy then."

 

5. "Nice to see you."

 

6. "I haven't got any change."

 

7. "I've got no money."
