    Needing to lie to a large group of people assumes malice from said large group of people.

    How did you build the bridge across that leap in logic?

      I can see the logic, especially if we’re assuming the person who feels they need to lie isn’t doing something wrong. Though that’s mostly because I can’t think of a scenario in which people get angry or create problems because of a refusal to discuss certain topics or an innocent truth without malice (or completely out of line nosiness).

      I can’t tell if I’m lacking in imagination or if I’m just more comfortable associating extreme nosiness with malice, though.

      That is not a leap in logic, but considering your response I’m questioning the kind of person you are.

        The kind of person who tries to make sense?
