Have you ever had a friend that lies...alot but is super generous and nice! I have this friend who lies...about little stuff like more of an exageration, but she is really great with my kids and to us as well, but they always have to do better than everyone else. Like they have to have the upper hand. Ever had a friend like that?

I tend to stay away from those people. They drive me a little bonkers. High energy people too. I like calm, reasonable, logical people. Not people who are attention grabbers. I think that's what it is. .. I have had friends that lie and lie and lie, not exaggerate like your friend, but lie and lie, and steal too! he would give you the shirt off his back, but he's steal your pants when you were not looking lol. I dont care for those people at all! And since you live in halifax, and i assume you live in the downtown area ? You have probably at least SEEN this person, he is a street person now i believe. . or was last time i seen him. I went to highschool with him, and later let him live in my apartment and eat my food, and he STOLE everything he could from me and my room mates. .

Liars are everywhere. Sadly, we do have people in our lives that lie to us. It is quite depressing that even our friends at times, lie to us. Sometimes we find ourselves disappointed that they do. But what really gets through my nerves are people who habitually lie. I have had friends who lied so much that I just had to say goodbye to them. Of course it breaks my heart but I don't want to listen to their lies forever.

I agree I will be happy when we move and get away from her!!!Sadly because she can be a good person, but it can get aggrevating to hear her go on about this and that.

Yes, I have a friend that constantly exaggerates himself, but I think it's because he's not happy with his life. He's the only single one left without kids and I get the impression he may be jealous so he pumps himself up. The bad part is he ends up making himself look stupid. I think some people just don't want to give the impression that they may be unhappy when just being yourself is so much better.

Yeah I don't know why she does it. Its like she has to be better than everyone in her life...Like we got a new van and she was going to get a new van to but i don't think they got approved for it so she made up this story about how she didn't feel comfortable to there terms and blah blah blah. But oh well such is life!!!

No she has to be better than everone else. I told her that I was volunteering at the school the next week she was trying to get involved...It just makes me laugh. Plus she lies about things....its both you know what I mean...not just one or the other...Plus if I tell her something that she doesn't like...that her child is being mean at school, which she has, she won't talk to me for a few days....

It is so sad though that someone that you take as your friend just lie to you... You feel so betrayed... I know people as close as a family member who is just like the "best" liar ever... Also I know an individula who lies to make an impression, she prentends as if everything is great with her, but its not... Some people can't change though, lying is like in their genes...

I agree so much. Yeah we have someone in the family like that as well. I think everyone does and you just know not to believe a word they say...which is sad!. I've had to tell my daughter not to trust anything that comes out of myfriends daughters mouth, because they go to school and she has told her some stuff that was not true and scared her...like they was some red paint on the play ground they go to and she said it was blood and that someone was murdered ther....and she was 6 when she told her this!!!!My kid barely knew what murdered was i had to explain it all to her. It was horrible!

Yes I ever had one. She's a woman, and I like her very much. But when the problem come to me, She leave me and she blame me with my problem. I never thought before. For months I don't believe it, but with time run I realize that she's not my only best friend, maybe she's just person like the other. I never want to think her again.And I'm solving my problem by my self and I proud of it.
