(No reflection on you, Mulan).

The ability to lie well seems an odd ambition.
I am not saying lying in order to get anybody hurt. But I see many people doing those kind of things and some of them are indeed very compassionated ones.
I tend to want to say thruthfull things in social settings and it mostly gets me in trouble. Like saying I don't know something when I am being evaluated... Rhetoric, make things turn to your side and look good in the picture, is what I am trying to say. When you get oversteped and overlooked for not knowing how to do that...
Even a good psychiatrist has to know how to manipulate their patients. Isn't therapy some sort of manipulation also?
They lead you to where they want you to get.
