Not telling the truth

[SrChulo]

Hmm.. I wonder if you can really group closeted gay people with pathological liars. Both lie like it's their job, but is it for different reasons deep down?

I think it is, yes. Pathological liars (sounds like your female friend may be one) lie even when they know they will be caught in the future... it's an illness. They lie without considering the consequences. On the other hand, people in the closet lie because they feel they have to. And I don't think they (we) go out of their way to make up elaborate stories if they're not needed. People in the closet are hopefully just waiting for the right time to reveal the truth, but pathological liars see no end in sight to their stories.

I've known quite a few liars, it's really sad.
