FabSwingers.com forum: Liars caught out

What do you guys do when you catch someone out in a lie? Do you call them on it or just block/ignore them?

Just happened to me, the catching someone out part I mean!

I’m in two minds to confront them about it or just think “bollocks to it “ and block them

Block and ignore.

Calling them out on it privately is just wasting your time, and publicly will get you potentially suspended by admin

Depends what the lie is.

More often than not I tell them what a rotter they are and I walk away.

Depends, usually just ignore them though. Not worth the energy most of the time.

Lies tend to be under layers of plausible deniability.

A friend taught me a long time ago, the best way is to deal with it is to call them out on it. Did you lie to me?

Their reaction says everything in that moment. If there's no remorse or ownership - then I'm done. If there is, then maybe there's a conversation worth having still. Depends on the circumstances.

Thing is with liars the more they are confronted the better liars they become. Ignore the lie and block.

Depends what's it's about and how it affects me/someone I care about.

For here I just ignore or block if I feel I've been lied to. Don't need to understand their motive or receive an apology. Just move on from it.

Depends on the relationship I have with them, some randomer on fab I'd just block, my husband, friend or family member I'd call them out.

Block and ignore. Particularly on finding out they’re married - some small lies you can work around but that’s not one I can move past.

React depending on reaction to being called out.

I tend to just ignore lies nowadays and separate myself from the person.

You have to have a very good memory or actually believe the lie to be successful at it. Most liars have neither, the good ones don't get caught out

Depends what the lie is, if it's insignificant I wouldn't bother with a reaction.

It depends on the lie and how much I've invested in chatting /getting to know them.

Any big lies like not being single or hiding who they are, would make me block and cut contact though.

I was chatting to a single male on here years ago, he must have forgot he'd said he was single. One eve he said "soz gotta go as that's my wife home"....

I replied along the lines of how he must have selective amnesia to forget she exists and blocked him.

We all lie. Every day - all of us.

What kind of lie was it O.P. ?

Honestly it matters cos some lies just don't matter and others are a hanging offence.

What kind of lie was it ?

I call out in the send an email, saying I know your lying about x, and as such have no interest in pursuing anything more.

Then block

On here? It’s pretty safe to assume everyone is lying about something so I’m never surprised when it happens. Usually don’t want to have anything to do with said person.

Say Ha inwardardly, ignore it and make a private note on their profile. Liars are my pet hate.

Depends on what kind of lie it is. I generally call lies out. But if it’s a step too far I just remove myself from the situation.
