Accustomed to Living in a Fabricated Reality
What we hear from someone else, even from someone very close to us, is sometimes not the actual thing. Sometimes, it is meant to save us from being hurt, and sometimes, it is also meant to hurt us, especially if it comes from someone who hates us even when we are not doing anything to them.
We tell lies at some point in life because sometimes we want to look better than we really are. Frequently, we tell lies out of a misplaced desire to make someone else happy, to get someone else's approval, or to hide something we've done that we wish we could take back.
We also tell lies to nurture our lives. Because we believe that a brief deception spares us from having to explain ourselves for a lengthy period of time. Not to worsen the situation, but to lessen what we feel, that we are just okay, and that we are just doing this to somehow ease the pain inside us.
Our lies are a way of avoiding repercussions that we don't want to confront. The anxiety that we aren't good enough is at the heart of practically every lie we tell ourselves.
Since the liar doesn't really want to face reality, individuals lie to avoid it. Most liars will tell lies to at least some various individuals during the course of the day. If the truth were easier to take for all sides, it does not matter.
The truth suits better to be told, but liars prefer to tell lies even when the fact or the truth would be more advantageous. Lies have an allure for liars because of their characteristic of being something that isn't genuine. They have been used to it, and it could be that it is hard for them to change it.
The more a liar becomes accustomed to living in a fabricated reality, the more likely it is that they will continue to do so. The truth is avoided by a liar because they avoid confusion about when and to whom they would apply it. But most of the time, they would tell even some random people.
Is it simple to trust your own fallacies if you don't require the truth to be true or if a lie satisfies your needs?
It depends on the situation. But truth must be told because it is the best thing you can do, especially when it is really needed to tell it.
However, everyone, at some point, tells a little exaggerated version of the truth. This is true. But know that not everyone has the same understanding as you. Sometimes, they are a little sensitive, so watch your words carefully.
There are times when telling a lie may be just as significant as telling the truth when it comes to impacting the listener. Even yet, if you utter lies on a regular basis, your message will be seen as less credible by the recipient.
Because you know, why would they believe someone who just tells lies?
That's the point. So regardless of whether you are accustomed to living with fabricated lies or not, it is not yet late to change it for the betterment of yourself.

I think I agree that some people tend to make a lie just to prevent something which might be worse. But lie is a lie. It doesn't change that fact.
