Sometimes when friends are evry close, they can always be attempted to lie to each other. Have been lied to and how did you take, or have you ever lie to your friend and how did he take. Is it bad to lie because you are taking advantage of your friendship

i think it depends on the reason why your friend lied to you. i admit that i sometimes lie to my friends about things that i think would be better left unsaid. it does hurt to know that you have been lied to but you need to look at the reason why. if i could go back in time to change what those lies that i said, i would probably do the same thing again. because that is what i thought was the right thing to do at that time.

So you lie not to hurt, if she or he finds out that you lied to him, which one will hurt the most and will your friend ever believe you when you are making serious comments or suggestions

yes, i do sometimes lie to my friends and i think that you will find very few people who hasn't lied to their friends one way or another. i try to be honest as much as possible though. but there are situations when i think it would be better to lie especially if telling the truth would make it a big issue. for example, i was hurt by something that a friend did. i would no longer bring it up so that it would not be an issue especially if it's a small thing anyway. not telling is also considered lying.

well, I am not so sure about them but for me when it is needed to go out and I cannot comply with them I always told my friends that I cannot and I always want to be honest with them..and I will never take any advantages of my friends.

I had a friend, now an ex-friend who is a big, big liar. She is a congenital liar and that resulted in the break up of our friendship. I caught her lying in several instances and I discovered that lying is her way of life. Of course... that is not the kind of friend I would keep. I don't want to associate myself with liars because certainly I can never trust a liar! So to avoid further association with her, and conflicts as well... I severed my relationship with her. We are no longer seeing each other again. Good for me!
