you know your friend is a pathological liar basicly if they always have a tendency to lie and if they lie their way to deep in the lie to tell the truth. or if they constantly lie to cover up another lie and so on.
No, but how do you know if I'm telling the truth?

Yes. Dr. Hare talks about this in 'Without Conscience'
You can't tell if a pathological liar is lying. They are sociopaths and have learned to mimic the behavior of truth. I know! I lived with one of the most skillful highly functioning and respected lying professionals for 27 years. He fooled me and everyone around him and was considered a trusted upstanding citizen by all and still holds a place of power in his community. If you asked most people what they thought of him they would sing his praises.
The legal test is the ability to tell right from wrong, and has nothing to do with telling the truth.
whats the difference.? once they give you two lies. dump him .don't let him get to 3. I was with a pathological liar and a scum bag. they never stop lying . I wasted my life for 6 years.
A pathological liar may also be schizophrenic. Both are defects in the brain and schizophrenia may be the cause of pathological lying.
a LIAR means a person that does not tell the truth about someone or something.
If you have to ask you already know do yourself a favor and move on trust is a must
A person who lies to themselves or twists the truth is called a 'denier.'
