h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

http://www.h2g2.com/A474978

This is my first attempt at a guide entry, so, please let me kow what you think.

Man! Have YOU had a bad experience...!

I like this article a lot, and would recommend it without hesitation, but for the fact that I can't quite see what it's about. I don't think that this will stop me, but the 'Romantic Liar', as you describe the phenomenon, has been called many other things, but no better description is currently available that I can recall to my mind - it's on the tip of my tongue though...

Any thoughts?

It wasn't a bad experience that made me write this (although, fair enough I, as every one else in this day and age, have been lied to), I wrote it as advice for a friend who is him self a "romantic liar" (or what ever you wish to call them), I don't think he realised thats what he was. I thought categorising him would make him sort him self out. So, basicly the article is there as a warning to the gullible and as a wake up call to those who are in the game of deception.

I still like it - even more now!

I'll see what people have to say...

Excellent, thanks.

You may wish to have a look at http://www.h2g2.com/A410455 - an entry on Compulsive Lying Disorder with much the same background and thought process...

OK Webbo, it's up for editing, and therefore this thread should be considered 'closed' until it's moved into the forum for the article itself.

I still haven't figured out what it is that I think this sort of behavioural syndrome should be called, though...!
