There is never a right time for lies. There is never a right time to withhold truth. What are the consequences of truth? Everyone gets the same information. People are free to form their own opinions and choices. People are free to make decisions based in truth.
There are no negative consequences to truth if we're not interested in controlling outcomes. If we are strong enough to allow others the free will to decide for themselves, we will never have a reason to withhold truth.
It's only when we want to control the narrative or manipulate choices or adjust perception do we use deceit. What people think of us is none of our business. If we can only keep people in relationship with us with lies, or only get our needs met with lies, then we still have a lot of sh!t to move.
