Yes, most of us do lie one way or another, almost every day. Like when someone calls you on the phone and you're in the middle of something, but you still say you have time to stop and talk. Those are different to lies told simply to get yourself out of the shit or which are self serving and deceitful.

I would rate myself at least a 9 on a level of one to ten. If someone asks me to help them with something and I say yes, then they can count on me to be there, even if it's at my own expense. I believe that if you give your word, it's as safe as houses and you can count on it no matter what. If I say I'm going to be somewhere at a certain time, it's very rare for me not to be on time. If you ask me a question and want my opinion, you'll get it, even if you don't like it. You can trust me to be honest with you and not make false promises.

I have a buddy I would trust with my life but I wouldn't trust him with my house key.

Trust is something to be earned like money, and I value a trustworthy person more than money.. "in order to be clever enough to get all the money you must first be stupid enough to want it" a trust worthy person on the other hand is the result of years of the patient progress of tender loving care...

trust is a funny thing. I have a good friend who happens to be a felon. He did serious time. His first instinct is to lie. He even looks shady. yet, I would trust him to hold my wallet.

I have another associate (note I don't say friend) who has 'unimpeachable honor...just ask him.... that I would NOT trust with my wallet.... Not because he would steal from me... but because he would go through it.

I always tell my self I am trustworthy. I would rate myself a 9. But then... I was not very honest about certain things with my ex.... and that was a huge problem. So maybe I'm only trustworthy if I think I will get caught. cock.

I think if I were really concerned about being caught I wouldn't do it.. unless It was something like smoking in the boys room(teacher don't you fill me up with your rules cause everybody knows that smoking aint allowed in school))... in that case I'm more of a wild goose.. I dunno waking up in a morgue is not something I suggest you try.. the only escape is to just play dead...
