“This is My Life Now”: Redditors Share How One Insignificant Decision Changed the Course of Their Lives

When you’re a kid, it can become pretty easy to lie about things. Once you realize how easy it is to formulate a lie, the whole process of doing it becomes much easier and sometimes even becomes part of a daily routine. Sure, you know that it technically isn’t right, but when you have no one calling you out for it, it can become hard to stop.

This kid found out just how easy it was to lie on his online homeschooling social forum and told everyone he knew how to play guitar. His classmates were so in awe that they begged him to teach them how to play as well, but eventually, he got so caught up in the lie that he created more lies to cover his tracks.
