To Lie Compulsively

This is often done, as we all know, and coping with it is one of life's challenges. 

The person doing this is often not aware of it and greatly resents anyone saying so. 

If you believe this is happening, you are put in a difficult position. What to do about it? 

Often the easiest solution is to do nothing and hope nothing serious results from it. 

Or you may discuss this matter privately, and see how other people feel about it. In some situations, this may be dangerous and should be done carefully. 

I grew up in a religious family, for example. and I was often faced with this problem. As many other people are. 

This has resulted in wars that have killed many people. People take their religion seriously.
