"I am lying." True or false?

"I am lying." True or false.

When i first looked at it, the only thing that popped out of my mind was, what kind of question was this? Of course the answer is true.

Then i thought, it was false.

Looking back at my previous thoughts, i felt confusion. Is it true, or is it false?

Really, i am quite confused. It appeared to me that it was a relatively simple question. Yes, simple indeed, but it, in fact, was a complex question. Yes, 3 words only. However, to determine whether it is true or false is not going to be easy.

From one point of perspective, i felt that it could be true. Suppose you did something wrong and your mom accuse you, but you denied it until your mom canned you, forcing you to admit that you are lying. Yup. That is true indeed.

However, if you did something correct like giving up seats to the elderly, and you tell your mom. Then, you said that you are lying, but in reality you are not lying, so it is false.

This is when matters get complicated...

Sorry about the fact that i cannot phrase my words properly, but when explaining, it really takes a lot of efort to phrase my thoughts into one complete paragraph.

Okay, back to the main point.

So, the question remains, is "i am lying" true or false. I think that there is no answer to this question as there could be different circumstances and perspectives which caused different situations and views.

To me, it is dependent on the situation and circumstance to determine the answer.

What do you think? Is it true or is ti false?
