A harmless or trivial lie, especially one told to avoid hurting someone's feelings.
Hmmm ok. How do you know when someone wants the truth or wants their feelings spared with a lie?
Hmmm not sure. I think it depends on how we are as individuals and if we don't want to hurt someone we probably won't tell them the truth you spare them.1 -

The lie isn't for the other person, it's for the person telling the lie so they don't feel as bad about telling it.0
