What's the biggest lie that you ever told yourself? Why do we do it??

[FlamingoBlue]

I have always believed that the biggest lies are those that we tell ourselves. Check out the few I've listed and see if any of them fit:

1. My (fill in the blank) isn't a problem. I can stop any time I want.

2. My marriage isn't in trouble just because (fill in the blank).

3. This spot on my arm isn't a problem. It will go away soon.

4. So he/she struck me. I won't happen again.

5. It's cyberspace. Who am I hurting by
(fill in the blank)?

6. I'll just keep the extra money. It's not stealing because the clerk gave me too much change.

7. He/ she was stupid to believe me when I said (fill in the blank). It's their problem if he/she believes me, not mine.

8. What harm will come to our relationship if I fail to disclose that (fill in the blank)?

9. If I eat this piece of (fill in the blank) I'll just excercise it away later.

10. What difference does it make if I wait a little longer to do (fill in the blank)? It really isn't that important, anyways.

That should do for starters.

1. Smoking for another year (or so) won't kill me.
2. I can afford it.
3. I will take the movies back on time.
4. I'll use that gym membership.
5. If I owned that car I would keep it clean all the time
6. If I have a baby it will help my marriage.

"Things like (fill in the blank) will only happen to people other then myself". That's a lie that most people have subconsciously stored in their head as they go through life. Many don't believe they'll one day really end up with some disease, be victom of a horrible crime/act of violence, or anything else along those lines that will suddenly alter their life without warning. Can't really blame them though. Telling yourself a lie like that is much easier at first then dealing with the truth/possiblitys.

I love you and it doesn't matter that you want me to be the perfect wife. I can learn to cook and clean and serve you and I'll learn to like it.
