HOW TO: lie without lying

There are times, in everyone’s life, when it is necessary to learn how to say something in a different way in order not to create emotional drama that we really do not deserve. I mean, this is not lying, that is a practice we do not approve of (remember about karma) , is more like “tell him/her what he/she wants to hear”.

That’s what I mean:

• I was not in love with him/her in the past. (Maybe you were, but, really, why should you create the escalation for a possible future drama if right now you’re completely conscious of your sentiments?)

• I have never done this before with anyone. (Feel free to reinterpret this sentence as you wish, but you’ve understood me, better say this.)

• Our future is together. (This might suggest cynicism, it’s not, maybe is true, maybe not, only God knows, in the meanwhile focus on the here and now.)

• Without you, my life will become empty. (Ok, here there is cynicism, I admit it.)

• I do not read and believe in stupid things like what my horoscope says. (We have the sacrosanct right to believe in the horoscope, in tarot cards, in witches, and in everything we think is in line with our madness.)

Again, you’re welcome.
