LETS FIRST BACK UP AND QUALIFY JUST WHAT A lIE IS EXACTLY.
Because the only TRUTH the the MATTER of the LIE, is WHAT the intention is. EVIL or GOOD...!? Right?
So back up one further and then define what is a SECRET. A secret is something that is A BURDEN TO HOLD TO ONE's OWN CONSCIOUSNESS...! Secrets are told because WEAKLINGS CAN't HANDLE THE TRUTH - OK. PERIOD.... Is it the ultimate HOT POTATO of POISON which gets passed until it reaches an entity who is strong enough TO BEAR IT...! So we FREE ourselves of the burden by passing to others and now and hands are clean.. LOL..
So A LIE can be anything from a contortion or a SECRET, to something completely manufactured, to something TWISTED intentionally, and TO PROTECTING A LOVED ONE FROM INFORMATION WHICH WOULD OTHERWISE HARM THEIR WEAKER SOUL...!
Would you tell your mother that you brother was out fucking prostitutes KNOWN to have HIV because he was attempting the kill himself unbewittingly? Would you tell her is she was 50, 60, 80, or on her death bed??! NO- NOT UNLESS YOU ARE A SADISTIC FUCK...!
So you suck it up and take the burden - IF and only IF you are a mature MAN in this scenario and context...
If you love someone, you protect them from harm. PERIOD...
Telling them a secret as a PRETENSE that honesty is the best policy, or that its best we all konw the same, or PROOF that you would not lie to them. IS only you YOUR weak ass spirit who does not possess the STRENGTH to carry the burden ALONE and truly protect those you love...!
Else you are self destructing and harming the others you love in the weak ass process of being the BITCH you really are...!
WAKE UP...!
