Now total up the number of ‘Y’s you’ve ticked. If you have scored:

More Than 15 ‘Y’s: You make Pinocchio look like honest Joe! You were born to lie – to you the truth is boring and passé. Not many can lie with the finesse and alacrity as you! Usually a charmer, your lying genius will hold you in good stead – as long as you choose to stay single and opt for a career in politics!

10 To 15 ‘Y’s: You can lie well but your conscience makes you either feel guilty or worse, own up. You end up constantly justifying yourself. You’re not malicious, you’re just an attention seeker. You would find peace if you quit the habit.

4 To 9 ‘Y’s: You desperately wish to convince everyone that white lies are not lies, but unfortunately, no one believes that, including you! Lies have no color. They’re either lies or they’re not. And you’re definitely not good at pulling these off. So quit before people stop taking your word seriously!

3 And Less ‘Y’s: You don’t even qualify to take this Quiz! You can’t lie to save your life – and that is precisely what will save your soul! Keep it up![/otw_shortcode_info_box]
