Seeing as my degree is in Creative Writing, Michael frequently likes to tease me, claiming that I am a professional liar. Cheeky, yes, but he knows that I will never lie to him and that I will always tell him the truth. He also knows that I only use this power for good and not evil.
Overall I am a very truthful person. If you ask me a question, I'll answer it truthfully. However, my answer will depend on the question being asked and who is asking it.
If a question steps over the line into my personal territory, and you are not considered a safe person; expect an answer that is not altogether truthful. In simple terms, I will not volunteer information that I feel needs to be protected.
So no, I don't always tell the truth. But is it lying if I don't volunteer information? Is it lying if I'm protecting myself from more invasive questions and judgement?
"I'm not lying. I'm thinking creatively in order to execute a specific purpose."So do you always tell the truth?

Nope, I don't always tell the truth. I'm not a pathological lair but in "real life" I tend to be a private person and don't always wish to disclose certain things about myself....so I do tell little white lies.
I agree with you. Sometimes things are just no one elses business so I don't tell them all the details. I would never lie to my husband. I'm not a deceitful person. Just private with lots of people...except for my blog and very close friends. ha! Kind of ironic huh?
