Hi GBO and H2H - You guys are so good at holding the mirror up - I really needed this
Quote: And while we're on the subject of deception - wasn't it a lie of ommission on your part to ask with knowledge of this cancellation? I do this too, and then I realize that perhaps the whole "lie" could have been avoided if instead of setting him up, I was more direct - like "Oh, I heard from XXX, she pinged that they can't make it. Is there anyone else?"
I am so into the poor-me-being-deceived that I'm justifying my own less than admirable actions. You are right, there was a better way to handle this.
GBO, I have the same concerns you raise, it is such a small thing, in itself it was not that big a deal.
Quote: Or are you worried about a habit of lying, even about the small stuff?
Yes, I guess this is my concern. But I do think I need to get under the words and see what is prompting them. I have no idea where to start, though
