You wonder all the time, if it's true or not.
Are they lying to you?
The answer is yes.
In fact deception is so prevalent in everyday communication that it's a wonder anyone can actually remember anything they said to someone else. (And, in fact, they often don't because the part of the brain that most often generates a lie is not immediately conscious!)

why people do this (including you and me)
who is mostly likely to not deceive others or themselves
how to influence the person when they are deceiving (remember that's about 18 times per hour in a conversation)
