Today on Facebook, I posted a list of my biggest, most influential lies, asking for forgiveness. Reddit, what Internet post (yours or not) has changed your life (for better or worse)?

This was my post...

"This is a list of my lies. I realize I'm going to lose a lot of respect, and maybe a few friends, but I kinda hate the life I'm living right now, so here goes. Also, please realize that at the times these lies started, I had little to no respect for myself. I must ask that if you don't know what I'm talking about in any of the points stated below, you don't ask. It was a lie, so you don't need to know. Also, if you are offended, pissed off, hurt, or filled with intense murderous rage by any of the points below, please inbox me. All I want if some forgiveness, so that I can forgive myself. If, after reading this post you are determined to hate me forever, just delete me. I don't need any false friends, even if it's just on the Internet. So without further ado, my lies.

  • my hallucinations. I was sad, lonely, and just wanted attention.
  • suicide attempts. I haven't tried to kill myself nearly as many times as I claim to.
  • the Walmart incident. Don't ask if you don't know.
  • Adrik. He just never existed. Although for a while, I was convinced he had...
  • though I'm hoping we all know this was a lie/joke, I wasn't arrested when I was 8.
  • ghetto Mexicans didn't kill my cat.
  • never have I ever taken an arrow to the knee. I wasn't even in archery classes.
  • I'm not allergic to weed, or tobacco, it just makes me nauseous. From now on, if you offer me a blunt or a smoke, I'll say no simply because I don't want to.

I can't think of any more right now, and I hope I won't have to update this list, but I will have to. This is a long list and it gets longer. I'm very sorry to the people these lies have hurt. All I want is to change my life for the better, but you have to amputate the limb to get rid of the infection...

I just want forgiveness. As much as I probably don't deserve it, I'm asking for it."

EDIT: I'm a 15 year old girl, who was at the time of these lies EXTREMELY depressed. I wanted attention without flashing my tits. So, I lied.
