Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Sometimes it is better not to tell the truth. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

I agree with the statement that sometimes it is better not to tell the truth. First of all, if people tell the truth, they sometimes are hurt by that comment. Second of all, small lies do not influence their credits, so it is not a problem not to tell the truth. I feel this way for the reasons above, which I will explore in the following essay. First of all, if people tell the truth, they sometimes are hurt by that descriptions, Especially when people talk about personalities, faces or thinking, and so on. Not telling the truth is a tip to building a good relationship with each other, even if people think about it. My experience is a compelling example of this. When I was a child, I often did not eager to play games with my friends. But I would continue a good relationship with my friends, So I played games with my friends even if I did not want to play. However, one day I talked to one of my friends about what I thought that I did not want to play with, after that day I was never told by my friends “play with me”. Therefore, I lost my friends. If I had not told the truth to my friends, I would not have lost my friends. Second of all, some people say that people always should tell the truth. And if people sometimes tell a lie, people eventually lose their credits. However, No people always tell the truth, and even if people do not tell the truth, people can determine whether it is true or not from their eye movements and so on. For example, if they tell a big lie, people lose credits, but if people only tell a small lie, they will not lose their credits. People must distinguish whether they had better tell a lie or not. In conclusion, I agree with the statement that sometimes it is better not to tell the truth. First of all, if people tell the truth, they sometimes are hurt by that comment. Second of all, a small lie does not influence their credits, so it is not a problem not to tell the truth.
