What is a LIE?

A lie is : -

1. A false statement deliberately presented as being true; a falsehood.
2. Something meant to deceive or give a wrong impression

A white lie is : -

An often trivial, diplomatic or well-intentioned untruth.

Is a white lie supposed to be less hurtful? A lie is when someone tries to cover up the truth with something else. If someone deliberately did not mention the incident to you, then would you still think that he/she lie? But based on the definition, they just did not tell you, they did not attempt to cover up with something else.

What if one day you realised that they have not been telling you things that you have considered most important thing of all? Would you feel cheated?

It is already not easy to handle the looks that people give, let alone the things that people say...
