| Jun 27, 2016 at 8:51 | comment | added | Soudabeh | @gnasghr729, but I found that definition for 'compulsive liar" in other sources, too, like: truthaboutdeception.com/lying-and-deception/… | |
| Jun 27, 2016 at 8:15 | comment | added | gnasher729 | "Habitual liar" and "compulsive liar" is not the same thing. It's like the difference between a thief and a kleptomaniac. | |

| May 19, 2016 at 1:32 | comment | added | HopelessN00b | If there's nothing wrong with the phrase "compulsive liar", that's the phrase you might as well use. (Which was the point of my asking the question.) | |
| May 18, 2016 at 21:56 | comment | added | HopelessN00b | What's wrong with "compulsive liar"? It may have been considered psychological jargon once upon a time, but it's firmly in common usage by lay people these days. | |

| May 18, 2016 at 16:38 | comment | added | Soudabeh | Thanks for your remark, @KevinWorkman, Since I found that term in some psychological sources, I thought it is used only by psychologists. | |
| May 18, 2016 at 16:18 | comment | added | Kevin Workman | Calling this type of person a compulsive liar is not limited to psychology. Out of all the answers posted, I still think "compulsive liar" is your best option. | |
