Does "Story" carry a feeling or meaning of
In my language, "story" could mean (and most of the time in that way) it is fake, it's not true, you are telling me something hard to believe....
How about in English? If someone tells his real life experience and I say "Thanks for your story". Does it carry any implication that he is lying to me? I'm not going to insult him
