To me,there is a line.I only tell white lies if I believe the truth would hurt their confidence(such as someone's bad cooking),but when it comes to life changing things,such as a spouse cheating,I will tell the truth.
The line is an opinion because one lie may be horrible to one person while one person may think it's harmless.

Nope - it's too much of a slippery slope. White lies come from the fear of hurting someone's feelings or a fear of them not liking you. Truth told with love - like an offer to help the bad cook make dinner tomorrow abd teaching them a great recipe - is much better. Getting caught lying always causes more pain than you save by telling that little lie.
