If you thought you were sick, like potentially fatally sick, and you didn't tell the people closest to you, would that be considered lying? No reason I'm asking, just curious.
I think...if you are fatally ill, you should tell your family so that they can be prepared. I kinda think it's selfish not to. Imagine the pain when it comes to the end and there's no time to do anything about it, not necessarily fight the end, but maybe just have the most good moments together as possible?
Someone like Sam may need to let Dean finish his part of the job first (that Saving People thing!) before Dean's attention gets super-focused on Sam. Also gives Sam time to come up with a plan - we all know Sam LOVES having a plan!
That's why I can't think of what Sam did to Dean there as lying. I think it was love. Because this is the way my mind works, too. Sam protected Dean by not telling him. How can Dean focus on what he needs to, if he's going to be distracted by worry about Sam? Sam will come up with a plan, we know that. :)
