12 Things You Should Never Lie About

In many cases, these untruths are harmless. But what about those things you should always tell the truth about, lest you hurt both yourself and the person you're deceiving?

From thanking your grandmother profusely for an awkward gift to telling a work friend that her less-than-sparkling presentation was fantastic, most of us fib, stretch the truth, tell white lies and omit facts from time to time. In fact, studies published over the past five years have shown that the average person lies one to three times a day.

Here are 12 topics we think fall under the heading "never lie about this." Next time you're tempted to twist the truth about any of the following, tune into your conscience, or at least your self interest, and tell the truth instead. You'll thank yourself later.
