I have a friend (who I am very digusted with right now) who is a chronic and obsessive liar.

I know all about the lies she tells and have confronted her in a nice manner to no avail..these are usually lies designed to get out of trouble or to take advantage of others so not little white lies--but basically lies upon lies and elaborate lies at that. I plan to end the friendship, but she owes me a lot of money I mean thousands. She has taken advantage of me too. (I have ended the friendship in my mind, but attempting to play it cool with hopes she will pay me back)

Anyway, since this is about mental health, how does one handle an obsessive liar? Contiously confront them--which leads to arguments or should I keep my mouth shut? I have to get the money she owes me I am doomed without it. Yes the money was for something legal...in case you are wondering. I tried to help her before I found out what she was really like. Taking her to court will do no good even though I am certain the judge would rule in my favor, she still won't pay up.

the best thing to do is pretty much cut her out of your life.
if it comes down to it confront her parents.
Because i had a friend like this, minus the whole money thing, and its really not that hard to deal with it...because of all the wrong she's done, and pain she's caused, its easy to forget them, and theres so much stress relieved!
well hope everything turns out well!

(Rating: 4) good advice, but no parents involved though we are in our 40s.
