We are a pretty intuitive sign. I think we know when people lie to us. My question is, what do you do when someone lies to you? Do you just remember it, let it go, confront the person, get angry?

It can range from a friend who tells lots of little white lies about nothing like why they were late to lunch and you dont really care to know why but they tell you anyways,
to
a friend who lies about something serious
to
someone you're in a relationship doing either of the above

and can also range from having "smoking gun" proof, to no proof or just a hunch, etc.

This is a pretty open topic so discuss freely.

I take mental notes and catalog it. I don't like being lied to, and I don't like lying to others (also I suck at lying). If the lying is coming from a partner about something important, like finances or cheating, that will piss me off and I'll confront the person. If the lying continues the relationship will end. If I catch someone in lots of stupid little lies I'll make note that they're not fully trustworthy.

Personally, I feel there are a few reasons that are acceptable reasons for lying, and they all hinge around protection, either for someone else or self, especially if it's not someone's business and you're dealing with an unstable person or a nosy one. Overall I prefer honesty. It keeps life uncomplicated.

Stare at the friend...play along sometimes...listen and act normal.

If it was a close friend, she will be on verge of tears and will be very disturbed...talk about how much it hurts.. It gets heavy lol..

If it was a friend..also..talk about..analyse it..

I'm not cancer...my closest friend is! She is Scorpio moon... She never reacts immediately.

They say they will confront but they dont... Well, my bestie does not. Another cancer friend with Gemini moon WILL confront ..and it will be a nuclear explosion! She will question their feelings, opinions.. Very intense. But sometimes she will laugh it off too..depends on what the lie is about and the liar in question.

Don't you have to study. 🙂 Keep track of how you spend your time because that's how you end up like me ignorant and behind schedule in my life. But most of that is due to ADHD.

What does ADHD do to you?
ADHD- attention deficit hyperactivity disorder
More prominent in males than females.
A metaphor for this world be ferrari brain and toyota brakes. It's having a hard time to control your focus. And when you are able to focus which is usually something you like you get hyper focus.

Tell me your struggle with it. Do you get hyper focused on studies? Or on things you like?
