Self-deception looks mysterious and paradoxical because it doesn't seem possible to deceive yourself and be deceived. As the deceiver you have to know that you are hiding something from someone.

This chapter suggests that self-deception evolved to facilitate interpersonal deception by allowing people to avoid the cues of conscious deception that might reveal deceptive intent.

Two problems with “self-deception”: No “self” and no “deception”
Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2011AbstractWhile the idea that being wrong can be strategically advantageous in the context of social strategy is sound, the idea that there is a “self” to be deceived might not be. The modular view of the mind finesses this difficulty and is useful – perhaps necessary – for discussing the phenomena currently grouped under the term “self-deception.”

Deception, Self, and Self–Deception in Philosophy
2003Abstract Philosophers have always condemned lying, but in philosophy, the telling of falsehoods is far more common and far more accepted than usually acknowledged.
