- The story of one event changes from time to time. Your interlocutor is confused about details, dates and names. A new company might tell the same story with different details.
- In addition to large, detailed lies, lies on little things where it has no obvious practical benefit. For example, he can name different cities where he was born.
- He does not see anything terrible in his lie (with a lesser severity of the disorder), or does not recognize it at all under any circumstances (this is most often the case).
“A pathological liar cannot be pinned to a wall. When trying to expose him, he will ingeniously get out, coming up with even more implausible excuses, which, however, are difficult to verify. Witnesses of the events will be found to have emigrated, perished, escaped with forged documents. He may put pressure on you emotionally and try to transfer the blame, make you ashamed that you do not believe him.
“Nothing is sacred to a pathological liar. He can lie about someone's serious illness or death, denigrate his loved ones, it is easy to say nasty things about a common acquaintance.
- Emotional assessments of the same facts will change depending on the situation and environment. About the same acquaintance, he can say in a month that he is a wonderful person. If you recall his negative assessment, he will flare up and accuse you of exaggeration, or, on the contrary, indifferently say that he was wrong and changed his mind.
The only case when a pathological liar is able to admit to a lie is when exposure can really harm his work, family or life - that is, make an unpleasant reality even worse. Moreover, the recognition usually takes place in a form that cannot be called recognition.
