My lovely friend, Zahra asked a question: “How do you detect that someone is telling the lie or telling the truth? My answer to her question was that you can fool some people some time but you can’t fool all the people all the time. Again, my dear friend, Zahra, stated that what if the person being played with himself/herself is a fool?There are some clues with which we can detect a liar while chatting. The fake speaker is the best person in the world physically and mentally. He is the smartest, tallest, most handsome, strongest and most athletic person in the world. He has the best job in the best area of the country. His home also is in the best neighborhood of the country. He has graduated with the high average in the best university in the country or in a foreign country. He is the descendant of a great –great rich family you have ever seen. Briefly, He is perfect in every aspect of life.During the chat, he usually asks you personal questions like how old you are, you are married or not, what color your hair has, what color your eyes are, how tall you are, where you live, how your home is and etc.Then, he fell in love with you from the first moment of chatting calling you sweetheart, darling, honey and etc. Moreover, he uses every lovable and romantic word that you can imagine to make his point and to prove his love. He tells you some romantic sentences such as “I will sacrifice my life for you”, “I love you”, “you mean the whole world to me”,”you are great” and so on. The next day, you will receive a lot of nice cards or comments on your profile page in English club saying that he is missing you and he is counting down to see you again.I think no one can be so perfect even the perfect person is not perfect. So, when someone claims that he is the best, we should know this is a lie. You can be great in some skills. You can be a great musician or a painter but you cannot be great in everything. They are neither smart nor a good English speaker. They can hardly write a correct English sentence.I could not find any relationship between my age and learning English. What is the purpose behind this question: "How old are you?" Do they think I cannot learn English because of my age? Do they think my age prevent me to speak English very well? Do they think because of my age, I should go and learn something else? Do they want to know if I am married or not? I wonder what the point is in this question.In my opinion, the fake speaker is the one who asks you a lot of personal questions, looks for your phone number, falls in love with you from the very first moment and If you take a look at his profile page, he has only girlfriends in his friend list. In the end, I remember a quote from Nietzsche who said: “I am not upset that you lied to me, I am upset that from now on I can’t believe you.”

  • Dear Kamel,

    Exactly!Unofrtunately, in digital world, we have these kinds of problem. But, in chat, we can discover a little bit better since I think bad actions can always be realized easily. As you said, these people are very uneducated and only want to fill the hole in their soul. Thanks a lot to Zahra for raising this question. Hope this helps a little.
    Thank you so much for reading the blog.
    Wishing you well,
    Nafis
  • Dear Mimi,

    Exactly. They forget easily what they said and since they are very dumb, they cannot understand that we realize their lie but we only do not tell them that we understood. But, as we have a proverb in Persian, Sun will not be hidden behind clouds all the time and one day, it will appear.
    Thank you so much my dear mimi for reading the blog.
    Take great care,
    Nafis
  • Dear Nucha,

    Glad you liked the blog. I think our first goal here must be studying English not looking for a girlfriend or a boyfriend with telling lies. I miss you too my dear Nucha. You are a great friend.
    Cheers,

  • Dear Salim,

    As usual, you told a great point! It is smart to talk with thoes we know rather than we don't know at all. Thanks a lot for reading the blog.

    Cheers,
    Nafis
  • Dear Zahra,

    Exactly. These kinds of people not only know are a lover but also do not know anything about love. As you said, I hate thoes people who use the word "love" very easily. They think "love" is simple and happens over a night. So, they can say it whenever they want to whoever they see. AHHHHHHH!! (deeply sighed)
    But I am sure about the law of universe which says there is a reaction to the action. So, whoever says lie will receive lie too in return. They may think they can laugh at some people some time but it won't last for a long time. This party will be ended very soon.
    But my dear Zahra, be happy and enjoy your life. Life is too short that we want to spend most of it thinking about these sick people. Hope you always be happy!

    Cheers,
    Nafis
