Most of us will admit to telling the occasional little white lie. But in reality, more than one in three of us tell at least one lie every day. And it turns out that the more women lie, the more they lie.
One study found that a shocking four out of five women lie on a daily basis. Some women lie as many as 30 times a day. That compares to two out of five men who said they tend to lie every day.
Fortunately, the situation is not as bleak as the statistics imply. People said they avoid telling the truth mainly to avoid hurting other people's feelings. The biggest reason for lying was “to make someone feel better” (55%). Next was “to stay out of trouble” (32%), and one in four said it was because “life is complicated.” To prove a point” and ‘to save face’ were also common reasons for avoiding the truth.

Advertising researchers found a common theme in people's lies. When invited to a dinner party, no one likes to leave food behind.
And saying that they enjoyed their friends' or relatives' food was the number one reason for lying when they might not have done so (42%). They also often lie about their job, salary, and weight. We also sometimes pretend to share hobbies with the person we are trying to impress.
Fortunately, however, most of our lies are relatively harmless. About 80% of people say they only tell lies that don't hurt someone badly, but one in ten say they have hurt someone close to them with a small lie.
The survey also revealed that the most popular place to lie is at home. This is followed by “work and job interviews” and “social media. However, the most common places to tell the truth are the courtroom and the doctor's operating room. As for who we are most likely to lie to, friends (30%) top the list, followed closely by work colleagues and partners (about one in four), and children.
Interestingly, we are most likely to lie in middle age rather than when we are younger, and the average age of those who admitted to lying regularly was 46.“”Encouragingly,” said Privilege's Dan Simson, ”we may tell the odd lie, but overall, when it matters.
The results showed that we are more likely to tell the truth when it matters,” he said. White wine may unleash the monster in us all. What better way to party than with a glass of well-chilled Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Grigio, or Chardonnay?
Unfortunately, after a couple of glasses of white wine, we start to go a little crazy. According to medical expert Dr. Rosalind Hare: “White wine often unleashes a monster in us and we lose all control. After a few glasses, we start to act completely out of character. One of them told me that after drinking too much Lady Gasoline named Pinot Grigio, he approached a police officer and asked him to hold his hand pistol.
