You're always lying when you say that.
=====
Rudy, the Compulsive Liar
A compulsive liar excesively lies to fabricate reality. Compulsive liars are those who lie over and over
again. The dishonest behavior is second nature to them, and they may not even realize they're lying half the
time (despite displaying the classic signs of a liar). While compulsively lying isn't classified as a
disorder, it can be a sign of other mental health disorders, such as antisocial personality disorder.
Reasoning: Compulsive liars often make up stories and white lies because they fear criticism. For them, lying
is a defense mechanism to protect them from reality.
How to Deal: Don't engage in a compulsive liar's lies. Instead, state simply, "That's not true," and walk
away.
The terms "compulsive" and "habitual" are often used interchangeably.
Rudy, the Pathological Liar
A pathological liar is persistently dishonest for no reason. These liars tell small lies compulsively and
habitually-it comes naturally to them. More often than not, their reality becomes tangled with their lies,
mixing fact and fiction. Perhaps they exaggerate a story or don't tell the truth about what they had for
breakfast. A pathological liar can have such a strong belief in their lies that they believe them to be true.
Reasoning: Pathological liars tend to have low self-esteem and will often lie to boost their ego, seek
sympathy, or cure boredom.
How to Deal: Stop engaging in the conversation if you notice that they're lying. Pathological liars want you
to believe what they believe, and if you don't indulge in the lie, they'll likely move on.
Like compulsive liars, pathological lying may be a sign of a personality or mental-health disorder; however,
it's more difficult to spot a pathological liar.
Rudy, the Sociopathic Liar
A sociopathic liar lies on a routine basis to cause chaos. Their lying doesn't start or end on occasion; it's
constant. Unlike other types of liars, a sociopath lies simply because they want to. There's no rhyme or
reason to it, and they rarely feel remorse for their actions.
Reasoning: Sociopathic liars lie to gratify their own needs. They want what they want and won't hesitate to
burn a few bridges to get it.
How to Deal: Be honest with a sociopathic liar to derail their schemes. Call out their blatant lie with facts
you know to be true with something like, "Really? See, I heard something different."
Sociopathic and psychopathic lying are generally the same thing, with the only difference being the
personality disorder associated with their dishonesty.
Rudy, the Narcissistic Liar
A narcissistic liar seeks attention but denies responsibility. These types of liars use gaslighting to fuel
their lies. They may appear to be a "people person," but their social connections often stem from
exaggerations and lies. A narcissist's lies may seem childish, as their lies are a people-pleasing game.
Reasoning: Narcissistic liars twist the truth to hide themselves. Deep down, they're insecure and will do
whatever it takes not to be vulnerable.
How to Deal: Don't engage in a narcissistic liar's drama. Instead, take what they say with a grain of salt
and analyze the facts. If what they say contradicts what you know, it's probably a lie.
Narcissistic liars are a type of compulsive liar; however, they appear to be a hero or victim when
fabricating their reality.
Rudy, the Intentional Liar
An intentional liar lies for enjoyment. These types of liars love the drama lying creates. They think lying
is fun-an entertaining game they can play whenever they like. More often than not, their white lies, fibs,
and exaggerations are mean-spirited and intended to stir the pot or push someone's buttons.
Reasoning: Intentional liars are deceptive for attention. They're likely insecure and lie to boost their ego
and appear powerful.
How to Deal: Avoid engaging in lies and gossip with an intentional liar. The more you react to their lies,
the more lies they'll create.
Unlike pathological liars, intentional liars are fully aware of the dishonest web they weave.
Rudy, the Careless Liar
A careless liar doesn't care about the implications of lying. This type of liar is often sloppy or careless
when it comes to bending the truth. They likely won't try to hide it or put much thought into forming the
"perfect lie." Instead, they'll spew whatever comes to mind, often leading to further lies or conversational
hiccups.
Reasoning: Careless liars typically lie on the spot to cover up a mistake, fear, or insecurity. The lie
hastily comes out to protect themselves from facing the truth.
How to Deal: Call a careless liar out on their lie to halt them in their tracks. They know they're lying, and
confronting them and genuinely asking how they're doing may help them admit it.
A careless liar's lies are usually easy to spot because they don't formulate a clever story or tale
beforehand.
Rudy, the Impressive Liar
An impressive liar aims to be the best. This type of liar wants to be the most impressive of the group.
They'll exaggerate stories and tell white lies to look like the hero. For instance, the classic "I caught a
fish this big" tale is often told by an impressive liar.
Reasoning: Impressive liars want to feel self-assured and liked by others and often lie to hide insecurities
or embarrassment.
How to Deal: Let an impressive liar's lie roll off you. If something sounds too good to be true, say, "Yeah,
sure," and walk away or change the topic.
An impressive liar doesn't lie to be malicious or mean-spirited. They lie to fabricate the truth to match
their wild version of reality.
Rudy, the Encouraging Liar
An Encouraging liar lies to welcome conflict. Encouraging liars lie to scheme, manipulate, or intentionally
harm; they lie to keep the argument going. Conflict is their best case scenario, and these liars often dance
around the truth to court confrontation.
Reasoning: Encouraging liars are likely dishonest to further confrontation.
How to Deal: Don't let an Encouraging liar drag you away from an important conversation.
Encouraging liars usually lie every day; however, the more they lie, the easier it'll become and the more
often they'll do it.
