7 TYPES OF LIES PEOPLE TELL
It might be
surprising but definitely interesting to know that lies actually have
classifications and not all lies are the same; there are indeed different kinds
of lies. Jumia Travel and Jumia Mobile Week share 7 different
kinds of lies people tell.

kinds of lies people tell.
White Lies
This is often believed as the least serious kind of lie. These type of
lies are told to avoid burdening an individual with the weight of the truth. An
example is showing appreciation for an undesirable gift. These lies are indeed
quite harmless but the problem is over time the white liar loses credibility
and is dismissed as an insincere person.

The Bold-Faced Lie
These lies are common with children, but when an adult does it, it’s just
plain annoying. In a bold-faced lie, the liar says something everyone knows is
false but stands by it as the truth (regardless of how obvious the lie is).
People tend to be resentful of bold-faced lies because of how belittling of
time and intelligence it is.

Exaggerated Lies
Here the truth is usually mixed with untruth to make the liar look
impressive to others. The funny part is the exaggerator will sometimes weave
truth and lies in a way that confuses even themselves. Unfortunately, at some
point the exaggerator begins to believe these lies that no one else might even
believe. It’s truly tragic.

Deceptive Lies
This might seem like tautology but it isn’t. A deceptive lie is one where
the deceiver creates a false impression with truth, either by not telling all
the facts or recounting the facts in a misleading way. It’s quite impressive
actually and unfortunately people tend to believe these lies. These lies are
subtle, yet powerful, hurtful and even deadly.

Compulsive Lies
These lies are either caused by low self-esteem or the need for attention.
Compulsive liars tell lies even when telling the truth will be easier and
better; what matters most to them is the attention the lies will give them.
It’s quite ridiculous and at the same time extremely tragic. Compulsive liars
typically find it difficult to stop lying as it is more of an addiction for
them.

Lies of Fabrication
This involves presenting something you are not sure of, as the truth.
Gossip blogs are fond of this. These lies are very hurtful and damaging, they
typically lead to rumours that put others in danger or damage the reputation of
others. Gossips and rumour mongers are the people typically associated with
these lies.

Duplicitous Lies
These lies are typical of people who break spoken promises and
commitments. Duplicitous liars typically hide their true feelings and
intentions behind false actions and words. These liars cause great damage to
others. Unfortunately, they are quite difficult to identify until they’ve
disappointed. One way to protect yourself is to try to speak to people who have
previously known the person to know if the person is generally associated with
broken promises and commitments, so you can be careful.
