Tell us the worst lie you ever believed. It could be a superstitious belief or something someone told you that you later found out was untrue, but at the time, you believed it wholeheartedly. Tell us this lie and what your reaction was when you found out the truth to it.
I value honesty over lie's. And one's i believed that one is telling me the truth and at the end i found out that it was all bunch of lies, he or she has ruined the trust i have in him. I will hardly believe that person even in every little things. Many takes lies as part of their lifestyle there by causing others pains. Honestly i detaste lies. I have been told lie's in different occasions which i believe wholeheartedly only for me to get disappointed when i realized it was all lies. I will start by telling you the first lie i believed when i was young. Growing up as a child in a rural area, my parents weren't rich to afford some of our needs. Back then, i was made to believe that taking of tea's is not meant for children but only for adults. Hmmm, i asked my mom what's the repercussions on children and she told me that, it will Purge me if i should and, if care is not taking, it will lead to my death. I believed and lived with this lie for many years and that made me to lose interest in taking teas.
As a teenager, i saw my fellow children taking same teas i was told not to take and i asked them if it has any effect on them, which the answer was no, i became worried. Still afraid of tasting tea and with curiosity in my mind. I asked mom, why did she lied to me because i can see other children taking same tea without anything happening to them. At this juncture, i felt bad 😞, being deceived and disappointed.
Here comes another lie that i believed that later got me upseted. It was during my first date, my boyfriend introduced his friend to me as his senior brother when i visited him for the first time. Well, i believed him not knowing it was all lies. But what marvels me is that both of them communicate's with English instead of our local language. I asked him why is his brother not speaking Igbo which was our local language. He told me that his senior brother grew up outside state. He hears all but doesn't speak fluently. After few months of our relationship, the guys brother died. And he left to his village and it happened that i visited my boyfriend within that period. I asked him of his brother and he mistakenly to me that he traveled to his village that he lost one of his brother's. I didn't get him at first and i asked you mean your brother lost his own brother and traveled down to their village? That was when he realized himself and started pleading to me. I felt betrayed this time. Coming to know my boyfriend's brother as his friend. Not even from the same state with him. His reasons for lying to me made me feel unprotected and that was the end of our relationship.
The last but not the list lie i ever believed was dating a married man. When we met, he lied to me of being single. I believed him not knowing he has wife and children. One day he mistakenly gave me his phone and went through his gallery. Guess what? I saw pictures of him and his family. He tried lying to me this second time but i didn't believed him. I felt so frustrated and betrayed. I couldn't believe myself having affairs with another man's wife what i vowed never to do in my life. I was deceived anyway and i ended it up that same.
Let's just be honest with one another, lies ruins friendships, it spoils home and ruins trust. Honesty is the game changer
