Compulsive liars

Post by Ismail87 »

There is this guy at work who lies about everything and I mean literally everything. It's so focking annoying, the guy lies about where he got his coffee from, he'll say he got it from Starbucks when he really got from Costa or somewhere else. He thinks he's above everyone else :mindblown:
The other day we caught him lying about where he lives, he said he lives in this posh area in Coventry when infact he lives in Aston in Birmingham which is a rough area. I can't take it anymore wallahi we've caught him countless times and the worst thing is we have to deal with his lies every day :snoop:

Do you know any compulsive liars? And how do you deal with them?

Why are u Nosey and why is 'his life' important to u? Have u asked yourself that question? If someone lies about their life, it shouldn't concern u unless it directly impacts u. I see no bruise causing impact in white collar lies like where I got my coffee from or where i live at. U should see the lies I tell in the office. ( I once had an imagined miscarriage so I can take two weeks off to go to paris ) U will literally cry if these harmless lies makes u apoplectic ! :dj:

:o How do u know if hates his life? No, it could mean he loves his life, to embellish it so colorfully, as opposed to not caring and just saying it as it is, no matter how dull it could be. Avoid such people? Newsflash! People who lie like that--avoid dull people like u--who don't lie about their lives. "Oh, I had laxoox and subaag today, I brushed my teeth with authentic cadeey and farted three times in between snacks. Is that the life u love so much? :dj:

We know one guy like that. He lies about everything, I mean every.thing. Once he told me he stayed at a Park Avenue hotel in New York with a view over the park (over haf term) the fucker is Somali, next he comes that his mom owns an Audi TT :lol: The killer was when he told us he was doing a double honours degree and then one of my friends sees him in a foundation class :down:

But then again, most of the guys I know lie, one guy made up a sick gang rape story he was apart off. :mindblown:

catching someone in the middle of their lie is funny, but if the lie is utterly pointless that is really something special. :lol:

Yes I know a couple of those people. Lie about almost everything. One of the guys is normal but the other is not mentally stable. No use pointing out that they are lying though because all that creates is an awkward situation and you have nothing to gain by embarrassing the person. Usually people close to them know that those people lie but they think nobody is aware of their lies.

:lol: :lol: I had this one friend who would lie about dumb shxt. She would buy a top from a shop that isn't so expensive then she would lie and say I got it for £80 from so and so and I'm thinking yeah that's why I saw it in so and so shop for £8? And then she would wear fake louis bags and say it was real. I hate people who try and act rich and posh when infact their broker than all of us :mindblown:

I don't like embarrassing people but surely when you lie that much embarrassment is pretty much inevitable.

I have this relative of mine who is a compulsive liar, man can this asshole lie or what! He is only 34 years old and Last time I check he had 5 failed marriages, 3 current marriages and unbelievable amount of children scattered across Midwest and western seaboard. I didn't know what he tells the xaliimos until one day as we were having coffee in some cafe when he got a phone call and remember this guy is as qaldaan as they come( even worse than me), and he started talking on the phone in pure reer xamar dialect some of which I didn't even understand :wtf: I only understood "abaayo" and few other words, as for the rest I can only assume he was talking about rainbows and unicorns, it was like watching a bollywood movie.

He hanged up the phone and pretended nothing happened and I'm like "what the fuck was that?" and he gave me that worst excuse every womanizing faraax uses "dumarka been baa lagu soo xero geliyaa runa waa lagu dhaqaa" and he added that if I so choose he will teach me tricks of the trade. I'm like "fuck that shit, if a xaliimo doesn't like me for who I am then she can go to hell", my simple honest answer was interrupted by his loud laughter and he followed that by saying "You don't understand xaliimos, and I can prove it to you, I will take you to one of the xaliimo I'm dating and you can tell her all about me and she will still go out with me."

I thought it was a joke and I accepted the challenge, to my surprise 20 minutes later my sorry excuse for a relative of mine and I were face to face with one of his xaliimo, and he told me to go ahead a tell her everything. At this point I was at point of no return, so I told her everything, that he never worked a day in his life, that I lost count of how many exes he has, that he has at least 11 children that I know of, that is a compulsive liar and a cheater, but to my shock she said it doesn't matter because she loves him. That's when I realized women are crazy, devoid of any reason.

To make things worse this asshole drives a 2011 BMW and 500+ cash in his pocket every time and has the audacity to make fun of my awesome 1994 jeep wrangler ( ok fine, it's a crappy car, but the point is I make honest living and this fucker lives on welfare, child support, and other crap from the government that I never even heard of, I don't know man it's all Greek to me but assume you this guy is loaded on welfare.) He even told one xaliimo that he was agricultural scientist working for the UN and she ended up being his wife for couple of months, now she is left with 1 children and lives in Ohio I think.

Ismail,

If we didn't live in different countries, I would of thought you were speaking about the same guy I knew :lol:

The guy I know lies about things as small as where he went to each lunch and even who his cell phone provider is. He lies about his income (he just blurts it out, its not a question I would ask to begin with) but that's minor compared to all the other lies he says. I find it annoying but the thing that really irritates me is when he says "let's go eat" or "let's go here" but he would end up shopping for 2 or 3 hours for clothing and we don't end up eating. He lies even about getting a bite. He moved away anyways so I am happy. The only reason why I couldn't cut him off so easily was because he lived a few blocks down and we took the same program together at school (same classes at the upper level years).

I think its an illness.
