Obviously lying is wrong, but does it happen, obviously it does cause if it didn’t we wouldn’t have a term for it. Unfortunately the world we live in today, everybody lies. As a society I don’t think that some people don’t intend to lie to hurt someone intentionally all the time but they lie to make them feel better some times.
