Lies don't fix things. They don't even make things easier, at least not in the long run. Best to tell the truth and then clean up an honest mess.
I've been through a lot of things. So please, lies won't work with me. Just tell the truth because whether I like it or not, I have to accept the truth even if it will hurt my feelings. I'm ready for that. Even if you lie or you just tell the truth, it still hurts. So theres nothing different between telling the truth and lying. And it will make things easier for me too :)
