Do It for Love
Many people find it difficult to tell their loved ones that they don’t like something they made for them. But, to be honest, it’s better, to be honest about such things than to lie. Because if you aren’t, you might end up eating a lot of things you don’t care for.
That’s right, just like this guy. We understand that you don’t want to offend Grandma, but should you really lie to her? If she cares about you, she’ll probably want to make you things you like. She’d probably feel even worse if she knew she’d been feeding you something you’d hated for years.
Just What I Wanted
Although this is technically another situation in which the lie did not cause the outcome, there is an ironic link between the two. This guy bragged his coworkers about how he could work from home, and then his boss offered him the opportunity.
Obviously, he found the newly offered situation more than sufficient for him, so he accepted it, and his lie became a reality. It’s funny how that happens from time to time. Better yet, no one was harmed as a result of the lie, which is a nice bonus.
