Truth about lying. How often do we lie?

The first episode of House I saw was “Cursed”. It hooked me. House hooked me – the way he tried so hard to get Chase and his father “together” and finally, when Chase opened up to him, told him the truth, that’s when House decided not to tell Chase about his father’s cancer. House didn’t lie to Chase, you might say, but still a lie by omission is still a lie. Perhaps it’s truth which makes House lie.

House won’t admit things aren’t the way he wants them to be, so maybe when someone else can face their truths, accept their reality – that’s what gets to House.

Is House a realist or a romantic?

What do you think?

I think House is a romantic, but a selfdestructive, arrogant and disgusting man.
I love "House md"!!

I agree – I think House is a romantic. He’s not a realist, although he tries so hard to make everyone around him believe he is. He’s a dreamer -- he plays the piano, he’s into music, and he believes in “destroying definition and being free in thought”.
