Lying is wrong for many reasons. You feel that it is wrong, even if you go ahead and do it; this is because people have a sense of right and wrong inside them.

Here are some reasons you should not lie:

  • Liars almost always get caught - sometimes it might take awhile, but in the modern world there are just too many ways for people to find out the truth!
  • Nobody believes a liar. Once you are known to tell lies, nobody is going to trust you - not even your friends and lovers.
  • Lies hurt. You might think that nobody gets hurt when you lie, but the person you lied to gets hurt because you betrayed him or her. And a lie can easily cause people to do things which hurt others.
  • Doing something that you know is wrong makes it easier to do more bad things - eventually, you will become a bad person who doesn't know how to be good anymore. This is how drug addicts get started - they just do "a little bit" and soon they are lying in a gutter without a place to live.
