Any point in being honest?

When people think you are lying???

Would you still persist in telling the truth and fighting your corner -however difficult that would be- along with the obvious obstacles incurred or would you succumb and take the easy way out and slink away ??

Its a clear case of being called a liar when you know youre not or letting the 'chinese whisperers' and or bullies win?

No circumstances.

What side would you personally pursue?

It really depends what the lie is.

Some things I am quite content to ignore.

Right -someone says you are lying and then perpetuates this by being nasty.

You know you are 100% telling the truth.

Would you feel aggrieved when they manage to brainwash others into their mantra?

Then we have a gang mentality and they follow their leader and you would be the lone vigilante- persae -defending your honour?

That sounds a bit like the way NK follows me around AB, accusing me of being a liar, a plagiarist and just about anyone thing else he can throw at me.

I know I'm being accurate and honest, so I don't let him bother me. Equally, I've no intention of backing down in the face of his crass stupidity.

Thanks Jugglering. It's good to know that there are still a few people left in my fan club ;-)

(Of course, I'm also in yours!).

My point proved, perhaps, NK?

If it was me, I would probably argue my point if it was something quite serious and important to me. But I wouldn't sweat the little things!

Well you and me in the same boat then Chris??

I dont expect anything but decent honest answers at this time and when the nasty ones come en masse (of course) I shall be snuggled up in bed -try telling them that though *sigh*

Ta Juggs,bensmum and andrea -this time I am going to fight my corner as very personal issues are being bandied about and some gullible person might just believe for example I deserve to be beaten up by my husband -that was just an example you understand (:

I have a lot of friends on here and I am not going to let a very small clique beat me into submission.
