[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I'm your wife I do it because I find it amusing and it makes things interesting. I enjoy making up stories, people, and scenarios *shrugs[/quote]

This strikes me as a bit of a different and more benign category.  I do think there are folks, and I'd include my own Mom among them, who just enjoy telling tall tales.  To some extent, it is even tacitly acknowledged in the telling that [i]this may or may not be true, wonder if you can tell[/i]. We got lot of fabulous tales of her childhood for instance which she still never verified as true or not.  At the same time, I have never known my Mom to actually lie when asked a direct (significant) question or to brush up her own image/ego (quite the opposite).

So I'd say context and motive matters.[/quote]

Your Mom sounds a lot like me. I don't lie about serious matters. For example I was once on a plane and made small talk with a woman next to me. I was 25 and told her I was 45 and pregnant with twins while having shots on the plane. [/quote]
