If I make the commitment I "usually" follow- what I do more often though is "lie" to prevent getting in to a commitment- although my friends should learn, e.g. I like my Sunday nights at home so I always have some "excuse" for not doing stuff on Sundays . . . ok I'm bad haha!

Sometimes, I just need alone time but telling people that always seems to hurt their feelings. "You'd rather sit home alone than go out with me?" Yes. So I lie to them and tell them about prior obligations. Just every now and then.

I really try not to do this. But sometimes it can't be helped...

I only do this if I get committed to one of those jewelery, candle, spa or tupperware parties and want to bail out at the last minute. I hate them with a passion!

It makes me feel terrible, but yes I'm guilty of this. Sometimes it's just one of those nights, and I cancel because of that. And my friends had recently been annoying and starting fights with me for no reason, so at the last minute I got stressed and said something came up.

I'm with you guys I'm not one to hurt people's feelings so I fib a little.

i try not to, but i do sometimes.. =/

I only do this with my husband's family. They have big family dinners way too often and sometimes we just don't feel like going, so we lie and say we're going out of town and then hide at home, hehe.

Yes, I lie all the time. I find myself lying day. It's not possible for me to say no and if I don't want to do something I never force myself. My mom taught me to lie, she does it all the time.

I'll do it for social things, if it was a group and I wasn't totally stranding somebody, but I would never do it for work or networking functions.

Always. Sometimes people just wont accept 'im not in the mood'
If people understood that others need alone time and there is nothing worng with turning down invitations.. i would have to lie.

where i was born, we dont do fun, we commit. im in my second commitment.

actually, i dont go for fun. others here do. lol, i dont like being touched or intimate with just anyone.
