Is it okay for me to lie for my and the other person's happiness?
<|assistant|>
It is generally not acceptable to deliberately lie for your own or another's sake, especially if it could lead to future negative consequences. It may be better to be honest and open about your feelings, even if it could be uncomfortable or upsetting in the short-term. Finding a mutually agreeable solution that honors everyone's feelings and wishes should be sought instead. Ultimately, the decision of whether it is morally acceptable to lie should be decided on a case by case basis.
