merits_of_lying
stork daddy say you were best friends with this dude who had just died. His wife was devastated. She could only say through the tears that he was the love of her life, her purpose etc. Now say you knew your friend had cheated on her, thought her philistine, etc. etc. She asks you through the tears, "do you think he loved me as much as I loved him"
