  • Not all people will continue to lie when the truth is found out, but those that do may be compulsive liars (a psychological dysfunction) and truly believe that they did not lie. Other people are upset and perhaps can be in a rage over the fact they were found out they were lying and feel backed into a corner so they will continue to lie to try to squirm out of an embarrassing situation.

How come people wont face the truth?

Not all people lie and have to admit the truth about a lie. The people that do lie and cannot face the truth have been caught in the lie; are embarrassed and immature enough not to be able to admit they lied and why they felt they had too. Then there are some people who have no self confidence that embellish (lie) about their life to make an impression on others and if someone catches them in that lie then that person feels totally crushed. When people tell a lie they are well aware they are doing so and hope not to get caught. Lying only leads to other lies and can hurt other people in the process. So, if a person lies constantly and it is mean spirited and they are found out, the person who lied will try to cover it up with another lie because they are afraid of what others will think of them and they could quite possibly lose friendships in the process.
