I feel like my friend always lies to me


Question Posted Tuesday May 26 2009, 7:04 pm

So my best friend Amy and I are not friends anymore because i caught her in a lie. I always felt like she was lying to me, but didn't say anything to her because i didn't want to seem like a bad friend. Here's the story.

Amy told my friend Sara something she did with a boy, and she begged Sara not to tell anyone. But when Sara was talking to me one day it slipped out of her mouth. Sara thought i knew because the 3 of us were best friends. It was a total lie, and Amy found out Sara told me and got mad at us. Amy said Sara twisted the story, but Sara is not the person to twist stories. And i guess i'm a bad friend for believing Sara.

I tried talking to Amy and she is just so rude about everything i say. I'm trying to be a good friend but i feel like im wasting my time trying to fix our friendship. What should i do?

Once a liar always a liar.
And If you Lie = you dont deserve to have friends

Therefore For Amy doesnt deserve to have you.

If she has only lied a couple of times -
thats okay because people make mistakes.
She may want to impress because she
highly respects you all

You got to think why she'd lie.
She might see you guys as a threat..
I dont know.Only she can answer why she lies

HOWEVER...

If she lies a lot, dont bother with her.
You can tell her you want to start over etc etc
But she wont change. If she's lied to you before,
what makes you think she wont the next time?

She probarbly enjoyed the attention she got
when she said she did stuff with a boy, so
she'll want more attention and lie more.
.

Amy got caught out, and even though SHE lied, she wants you to feel bad so it looks as if YOU'RE the bad guy.

Don't be friends with someone who is a liar and maniupulative.

You can be civil, but dont just waste your time.

Anyway, thats just my view on it.
I've had my fair share of liars in my time and they have never changed. So I changed. I stopped being gulliable and thinking things will work out when they won't.
