Topic: Secrets Between Couples(the pros and cons of lying)

“Should you lie to your partner?”

I couldn’t disagree with more that lying is acceptable when it’s needed.

First, telling a lie can be habitual and eventually, your partner may lose trust in you. When people lie, they do it thinking that it is all about keeping their relationship solid and avoiding unnecessary conflicts. However, not only does deceiving your partner bars you from building the ability to solve problems with her/him in any way, it will force you to tell more lies to support the first one. As a result, you will be at the point of taking lying as the easiest method to relieve your partner.

Second to last, manipulating someone should be considered a serious issue not only for between couples but for society at large. No one in the real world seems to like the truth. They would be rather lied to and wouldn’t have any meaningful conversations. Kids grown up in the real world easily attain how to tell lies and we all fall victims to playing political games. The world made up of manipulators only does more harm than good to our society, taking away any chance for us to be decent citizens who never lose his/her integrity. (198 words)
