Another reason for 6 (tell) a white lie is to give encouragement. For example, when our friend asks us what we think of his singing, we surely say it’s wonderful, despite 7 (secret) thinking that it’s awful. Stop for a moment and consider that perhaps our friend wants some frank 8 (comment). Finally, we may also tell a white lie when we want to protect others from bad news.
We may find even white lies have 9 (expect) results. Perhaps the meal we said was “delicious ” 10 (serve) every time we visit. Or when we only share good news, others won’t truly understand our emotions.
