    It all depends what they lied about and why. Some people lie due to embarrassment or shame. Though, if someone straight up lies for no good reason...then yes, I tend to lose respect and trust in them.

    Yes obviously, I can't have friends or acquaintance lie to me, friendship will come to an end.

    Its a basic fact of the human condition that everyone lies the only differential is what they lie about. Depending on what type of lie (most people tell the middle to the worst) I would say a definite yes.

    I lie all the time. Sometimes I do it for fun especially on the internet. I'm a mother of three (truth). I will lie through my back teeth to protect them. The loss of random peoples respect makes no dent. The loss of theirs would be devastating. I never lie to my kids and I never betray them. Everybodies respect isn't necessary. Pick those you care about and endeavour to always behave in a way towatds them that instills trust. That is all.

    Not always. It depends on why they lied. I'm not going to write someone off for lying to me unless it was out of pure malice.

    Yes, because I hate liars.
