Lying by omission is when a person leaves out important information or fails to correct a pre-existing misconception in order to hide the truth from others.
To me, this is the most EVIL of ALL LIES. When challenged, this type of liar will SO EASILY throw their hands in the air, paste on an innocent look and say to your FACE, “But, I Didn’t Lie.”
But, you didn’t tell the TRUTH !?!
BUT, I DIDN’T LIE and on and on and on.
Freaking cowardly cowards rule the world today.
