what do you think it is moral to lie about?

what to you think it is moral to lie about? my friend lies about being allergic to a certain food just because she does not like it, I dont like some types of food and I get harshly criticized for it from many people but I think it is better then lying. I think there are certain things where it is moral to lie about but its in very extreme situations.

After having to carry the burden of lies for others and myself for years ,
I finally had to confess all my sins ,I wasn't willing to do it another day ,

It cost me everything doing it ,but after a few years ,I stopped regretting doing it ,now no one has ANYTHING on me ,nothing
They can drag up my past if they like ,but its old news
my family and my ex wives families know the truth ,my kids after they got old enough ,I took full responsibility for the years I was not in their lives and for things they had been through as a result of my not growing up and putting my family first ,,they were hid from me for 12 yrs ,that alone was punishment enough
But then I had everyone knowing all the stuff I had done to my wives and friends and family to live down too ,,,and even the so called "forgiven "Christians threw my past up to me too for years ,things no one ever knew until I confessed .

so now that I have gone through that ,do you think I would carry a chain of guilt and lies again ? Not on your life
People who love me know ,don't ask me to lie for you ,and don't put me in something I might be asked the truth ,,I won't lie for my kids ,they won't lie for me .
I may withhold info to protect someone ,,but I am not going to lie for them
Don't ask my opinion unless you want as close as I can give you to the truth
Because I will tell you "Yes ,In my opinion that dress does make your hips look wider than they are " and I believe in tough love ,
If I am wrong ,tell me ,if I am I will admit it ,if I sin I will repent
But I no longer just lie for the sake of feeling ,,
It has cost me a good woman ,my company and my self respect and peace of mind
Thats a big price to pay for keeping stupid secrets ,
That may have been forgiven ,had I not made a fool out of so many people for so many years ,,now I am an open book ,,,and people respect me for being that way .
You can take my word to the bank
And I can borrow anything I need on my word ,people now know I learned my lesson
I can be trusted ,,and men also know I don't make idle threats
If I say I'm coming for you ,you can count on it ,,I'm on my way
People also know to take me seriously ,and I say whats on my mind
No one can say I am 2 faced
