I think when it has not negative effects to anyone, then I think it could be accepted. For example, I don\'t want to eat Ramen, but my friend wants to eat that food, then I will tell a white lie to her. Because for me, it is happier to see my friend\'s happy face than eating what I want.

You did your homework! Thank you and I really appreciate it. I agree that sometimes we say white lies to make people around us happy. It\'s a selfless act.
