Elements of deception and personal reasons

The elements of deception are:

• The sender must know the information is false
• The sender must be transmitting the information on purpose
• The sender must be attempting to make the receiver believe the information

If the sender knows that the information is false then it becomes a lie. If the sender didn't know it wasn't false, then it was just a simple mistake and they should not be held responsible for. If the person is transmitting something that they heard from someone else, then they are not responsible for the lie because they heard it from someone else. If the sender is really trying to to make someone else believe a lie then it is a lie.

Some of my personal experiences with deception would be:

I was dating a guy in highschool and I thought that he really liked me when in reality he really didn't. He then started to act weird and said we should just be friends. I found out later on that he liked another girl. I was really pissed off and felt used.

I was really good friends with two girls in highschool who always wanted to hangout and be with me. It was sincere for a while and then they used me for rides and money and etc. I was always a good friend to them and they really didn't care about me at all in the end.

I was in the hospital a few months ago for depression issues and I saw a doctor one time and he diagnosed me as Bipolar. He did not know me at all. Yes, I had a few symptoms but not enough to diagnose me with Bipolar. He then went on to tell me that I was untreatable and wished he had never tried.
