Lies

Why do people feel the need to lie to you? I mean really even though the truth hurts, in the long run its much better to start with the truth. When you are lied to, then you find out the truth it hurts more and for longer and you don't know if you can trust the person. I personally would just prefer for you to tell me the truth first  and not have to find out later that I was being lied too. I don't care how much you think the truth would hurt me, tell me. Or are people just too cowardly to tell the truth to someone? Or are we just not worth the truth? I think I am worth being told the truth. I am a big girl, you don't have to spare my feelings I will get over it. But seriously just tell people the truth in the first place no matter how much it may hurt. It's always better in the long run.
