15/f
alright well one of my really close friends (15/f) has only made out with a guy once. i dont think anything of it but shes embarrassed by it.
.. so this past weekend she went to her campfriends house and met some of her guy friends. she came home telling me that she likes this kid and he liked her.. but they didnt hook up. she tells me to talk to him for her once in a while to make her seem 'cool' and 'experienced'. i did this once or twice to get them kind of started, but now she keeps telling me to tell him lies. for example she wanted me to tell him she been to 3rd. shes pretending to be someone who shes not.
i was recently going to mention this to her, but i was afraid i would hurt her feeling or she would take it the wrong way. should i confront her? and if yes.. what should i say?

for her anymore. If she wants to tell him lies,
she needs to do it herself.
You might also let her know that with that
knowledge he will think she is easy and will
only go out with her for that reason. If not,
he will think she is a little to slutty for him.
Either way it doesn't make her look very good.

Tell her you don't feel comfortable lying about her to them. If she doesn't like what you have to say, it's her problem - not yours.
You shouldn't have to get involved in other peoples lies. If she wants to do it so much, tell her to get someone else to lie for her or do it herself. [ thelaura's advice column | Ask thelaura A Question ]
