Are Friends Superbeings?

Generally, I don't believe there is anyone who doesn't lie naturally, not as a hobby but as humans who are prone to defend some situations either positively or negatively and that's why we seek for forgiveness everyday cos lie seems to be the least and reoccurring sin we mostly commit as human.

Now, talking about a friend. Can we say a friend doesn't lie? As long as he or she is human then I dont believe in that phrase normally. No matter how we may want to justify it that "oh I don't lie on unnecessary things except it's a delicate situation that needs me to lie to handle", lie is lie right?

I've met with different people, close and distant friends and I can vividly say that they've been wonderful people. No matter how some friendships may end, it only established a proverb in my tribe that says "20 children can not play for 20 years".

No matter how great our personalities are, as friends or acquaintances, friends are humans and it is possible that an iota of lie squeezes out of them at some point.
I'm not justifying or defending that lying is good and normal but my stance here is just that as long as friends are human, then the phrase "friends don't lie" may not sound perfectly true.

It might now be in a different context talking about friends don't lie but the most important thing to watch out for and embrace when choosing our friends and is to know if lying is not their habit, if they are not relaxed and comfortable with dining and wining in bad characters which you won't even be able to vouch for them in their absence.
Such ships ends up sinking and not sailing through especially if you're the opposite of their bad attitude.

My general belief of "humans will always be human" has helped me realized right from time and not at a point, everyone can commit errors as long as we are humans irrespective of how we want to view it or defend it.

I'll be dropping my 🖊️ here on the Scifi Multiverse Prompt.

No matter how some people say they're saint that they don't like them it's absolutely a lie. No matter what we will always lie because we are humans and we are bond to lie just like you said either negatively or positively.

That's just it humans will always be humans and it's in our nature to lie for different reasons, so friends are no exception.

Infact friends are even mostly caught up in this cos I'm cases where your friend is about to get into trouble and you want to save their face and all of that

Everybody lies; we will live a better life if we understand this and live accordingly

That's just it. We should limit our expectations when they are not angels. Even angels fell the other time 😋

I agree that, as humans, we sometimes tell lies. But I'm looking at it from the perspective that there are situations where lies are uncalled for. This is one of the reasons some lose opportunities, just as Abraham did when he lied about Sarah being his sister. He knew that the Lord had sent him, and that he would have put the king and the entire country in a deep mess. Lies should not be commonised.

Yeah exactly 💯. That we have the nature to commit sins doesn't mean we are meant to dwell in it. I'm just trying to justify that anyone can lie as long as we're humans either they are friends or enemies or family. When it becomes a normal thing to do makes it a red light to stay away from such person

Every human being lie, sometimes by choice and sometimes because we have no other choice.

Omo, you handled this topic the way I wanted it . We are humans, lying is sure, it doesn't matter whether it was a good lie or a bad one, a lie is a lie, and it's makes that phrase invalid.

See me smiling here.... Yeah a lie is a lie. Unlike when we were small and we will be like I'm not a liar cos the lie u lied is a white lie 😂
Up till now, I don't know where colours of lies originated from. Rainbow liars will be the worst then 😂😂

And of a truth, friends aren't super beings, we all are humans, and that mentality is something that has helped me navigate my way through friendships and all
