It bothers me that she lied..I'm pretty sure she did though
Question Posted Thursday June 15 2006, 12:55 pm
I have these two friends and they both lie at times. To me at times...and well one day they were asking weight. And I said I'm 160 and she said 120. now she's pretty fat and she can't in no way be 120. I was really stunned at her effort to lie. I don't want to confront her but she makes me feel like i can't trust her again.
What do I do? help me please cause it relly hurts me she lied.
summerGIRL_xo answered Saturday June 17 2006, 4:11 pm: just because she lies about ehr weight doesn't mean she lies about everything else. shes probably lying about that because shes embarassed && doesn't want to tell you her real weight - but if she starts lying about other stuff, too, then you should talk to her about it. but until then, just let it go.

phsycowithproblems answered Friday June 16 2006, 12:52 am: I know that it hurts but before you assume shes lying make sure she is and if she is lying to you first try and understand why she is. also tell her that you are uncertain as to whether you can trust her anymore. if she is willing to try and earn her trust back than you have a really good friend and if not well maybe you shouldnt trust her. After all she might have just been embarrassed or afraid of what you might say, who knows? just try and understand her first.

If i were you I wouldn't really say anything to her because that would make her feel worse. If you know the truth is that she weighs more, just keep that to yourself. Probably other people can tell who weighs more too, so I wouldn't worrry about it. Its not really a big deal so I wouldnt get that worked up about it. Plus lying about your weight is only a small lie.
Shortcake22 answered Thursday June 15 2006, 5:43 pm: Shes Probably just embarassed about her weight. The same thing happened to me with my best friend. She kept asking me my weight over and over again, so I finally just told her (130) and she was at least 200 lbs, at the least, but she said she was 135. She was just embarrassed about her true weight, but I didn't call her on it, because that would make her feel worse. Everyone can obviously see that they weigh more, so it's really not that big of a deal. Plus, thats not a big lie. If thats all shes lying about, then you've got some pretty good friends. Now if shes lying about more serious issues, then thats a different story, but going by this, I'd say its okay.

xxoBriannax answered Thursday June 15 2006, 5:18 pm: Maybe she feels bad that she weighs alot. You can't not trust her because she didn't tell you her real weight. Most people do lie about there weight. But, if it bothers you that much then just tell her. You need to be honest. Tell her that she doesn't look 120 pounds if she denies it tell her to weigh herself in front of you. I don't know what else to tell you, sorry. But good luck and hopefully she doesn't lie to you about REAL issues. [ xxoBriannax's advice column | Ask xxoBriannax A Question ]

xoMarisox answered Thursday June 15 2006, 3:51 pm: there really isn't anyting that you can do, she probably is uncomfortble with her weight and lying helps her feel better. i would just let it go and if she lies again about something else, that isn't personally, comfront her about it. you never know how she really feels so, i would try adn brush it off [ xoMarisox's advice column | Ask xoMarisox A Question ]
fabulous11 answered Thursday June 15 2006, 3:49 pm: Well sorry, but i dont think that is a very good example. She is probbaly embarrsesed about her weight. I dont even tell my best friend my weight, so people just dont like to tell.
HardxcorePunkLover answered Thursday June 15 2006, 3:41 pm: You have to confront her. I had a friend who lied all the time & I never did anything about it. Once I confronted her, she started to stop & stopped all together after a while. Tell her that it hurts you when she lies. Good luck & Please rate

Tulipg17 answered Thursday June 15 2006, 3:25 pm: I'm sure she was embarrassed of her weight and didn't want to admitt the truth. Next time you know she is lying, call her out on it. I figure she'll just keep lying to you about random stuff until she realizes that you are intelligent enough to not believe her. [ Tulipg17's advice column | Ask Tulipg17 A Question ]
lilly_pads79 answered Thursday June 15 2006, 3:09 pm: She might have been being sarcastic. It will probably hurt for a while. You have to sit down and think about all the times yall have fun and then the bad, like have her lies ever gotten you all into trouble? Think about all these things. Does the bad out weigh the good? If so then just cool yalls friendship for while. Hope for the best!
BriZeeme2 answered Thursday June 15 2006, 2:51 pm: well not to say anything i would lie on my weight to because i'm not confortable with my weight so that might just be it
JazzyGotDaAnswer answered Thursday June 15 2006, 2:50 pm: maybe you should be her friend to a limit because it may not happened yet but her lies may get you in some troulbe that you cant get out of. and believe people lie about their weight 24 hrs a day
DefinedEyes answered Thursday June 15 2006, 2:37 pm: You know what she probably just lied because she is selfconsious, and I would just get over it.
Everyone lies, and I'm sure you have too.
Lying does hurt, but its something personal to her, and even if she did lie, she has to live with it, not you.
Just let the situation go though, dont make a big deal out of something thats not really.
ronda answered Thursday June 15 2006, 2:14 pm: You have to confront her thats the only way she will know that you dont like how she like how she lies to you.If she was realy your friend she wouldnt lie to you(you should tell her that when your talking to her)and tell her that your starting not to trust her.If you dont confront her then she will just keep lieing to you.So you should realy talk to her.
