Are Leos good liars?

Posted by ZelaleZ
I don't think Leos try to be good liars because Leos are generally not really afraid to point out the truth, even if it's harsh and hard. Leos have no problem with rawness of being truthful.
Lying isn't typical of Fire signs because they are traditionally viewed as "obvious". But Leo is most definitely the most manipulative of all the fire signs and could voice a lie or two just for plotting a personal plan. Whether they are good or not, that depends on the individual. But yes, there is a dark side to Leos, even if we might not want to admit it,

Deceit and lies are so different from secrecy.
I try to lie to my husband but it NEVER EVER works. My nephew says I need to learn to make a poker face. Cancer ascendant. Sigh
On the other hand, I can be super secretive and private

+1000 on the super secretive and extremely private. Only those who hold my highest trust will get access to that.
Lying on the spot...nope. Not possible.

I swear if a Leo doesn't want you to know something you will NEVER find out... Is this true? Especially for the male leos?

I hate lying.
However, I don't feel compelled to tell people what isn't their business.

Absolutely; however, that response suggests the secret info in question doesn't pertain to(nor concern) anybody else other than the person keeping it under-wraps. When said unmentionables could affect somebody's life in a major way if divulged? Then perhaps it should be considered the second party's business.
Granted, being the bearer of terrible game-changing knowledge is a dreadful burden--take it from a Libra--we understand this all too well

To clarify--I WAS referring to subject matter of the same caliber as your ex-in-prison/secret previous family examples.
Surely though, some folks effectively keep those skeletons deep in the closet & take their sordid secrets to the grave rather than finally breaking down & confessing the deets to whom it directly concerns.

Even if I begin to lie I end up feeling guilty, or obviously get caught between lies and feel stupid then I just confess. I can be a really good lier, but then again my moon is scorpio so I've thought out an alibi before it even happened. Usually I never lie, I go by the don't ask don't tell logic. It's really so much easier to tell the truth, and in the long run people will respect you for it. The reputation of a lier is way worse then a moment of truth.

You seem like you know a lot about Leos! What kinds of characteristics do you think pertain to their "bad side"?

lol i could write an entire novel on our "bad" sides. I'm a typical Leo (I think) and my Libra Moon/Mars gives me the ability to see both sides. Give me a specific subject, and I will give you some insights.

My experience has been the opposite. Although they may try their hand at deceiving others, they're rarely(if ever)GOOD/successful at it.

Agreed. They are only able to pull the wool over the eyes of the gullible, while thinking their skills in deception are second to none (like everything else about them).

Sooo
We're all lying about not lying and/or being lousy liars?

Dumbass.

Sorry if the truth hurts.
