Hi everyone Vera´s definition why people lie was perfect to me. I add just one note: much times they lie just because they are bad, only.
About second one, trust is proportional to time and importance. The trust in someone who make some work to me is differente to trust in someone that gonna married to me. In fact, I do not trust easily. And 3), I am think last months (you know, don´t you, i`m thinking so much LOL) that in some environments we simply CAN´T be honest all the time, or we won´t survive. I Know people that are honest and polite but... I always suspect.
