I have noticed that there are alot of people that have started discussions, saying about a friend or a friendship that they have.There are friends that are good friends as well as people that we class as a friend.In the past i have said that i am going out or that i have someone popping in to see me to avoid a person, as i know that they are only popping to see me as they do not like being in their own house, as well as they want to back stab someone.

there were actually friends that doesn't like a friend but they don't know how to break the relationship while there are friends who just make friends because of benefits. There were times that you need to end friendships because trust is lost or you don't get along anymore. friendship in a way has a similarity to marriage as long as you get along, as long as you do care for each other, then you can stay friends but if you hideously dislikes each other, there is no more point.

You are right there.I just feel dispointed by some friends that they come to see me, talk about a person that they can not stand, or should i really say thats what they tell everyone apart from the person they say they can not stand, as next they are chatting in the street.I know the person that they can not stand has caused nothing but trouble since they have moved to the area, but how two faced can people get as well as lie about it.

I ended up friendships with some of my long time friends in the office, I dotn dislike them but I just happen to feel out of place with them and the fire and chemistry is not there. They didn't hold grudges and I parted with them in good terms. then i also have mylot friends that i end friendships with. If they dont really like me, why dont they remove me on their friend list, its because I help them in some of their discussions, they have use for me but now removed some friends here because i know they were not friends. One of them seemed to hold a grudge againts me but at least now I was able to get rid of friends whoa re not really friends,

Yes, I think I have lied to friends before in order to avoid having them visit me at my place. I'm not very comfortable inviting people to my place, and I am comfortable of inviting only those who are really close friends. I don't know why, but, I want to keep a part of me "unknown" to some friends.

hi joystick No not lie just phrase things gently as I hate to lie
and I will say please do not talk about her behind her back. I
hate gossip so if thats all you want I must leave.So maybe thats
rude but the kind of person who will talk about others like'that
is immune to subtleties
at all.
at all.

Over the last couple of years, I have noticed that the majority of people are catty and really like to talk about each other behind their backs. In fact, this is the reason that I've drawn away from a lot of people because I really don't like having drama in my life. If I notice that someone that I know is starting to talk bad about someone else that I know, I will either leave the conversation or politely ask them to change the subject.

I have lied many times in my life. But almost them are good for others. If I tell lie to get benefits for myself, I will be feel bad. So, I never do that.

All i can say is choose your friends well. I hate it when you really help a pal out but then they expect more and treat you like you are disposable! Best to drop them like bowling balls asap! On the other hand, maybe they had a different upbringing or background?

If you feel a need to lie to someone to avoid them then I would think that there is a problem. If these people that you are lying to are really your friends and they have these characteristics you don't care for I would either say something to them or I would start finding other friends. I certainly would not avoid them. If they don't want to be in their own house or want to stab someone in the back why do you have friends like this? I would give that some thought. I would either say something to them or get away from them completely.

I have lied to friends and family! I have done it so much I lost track! I lie to avoid being yelled at. I lie to not have people worry about me. I have lied to get attention. I have lied to aviod people,too! I think everyone does that once in awhile! I hate to say this but lieing is part of human nature.

I have lots of friends,some are my best friends,some good friends and some are for only name.i must go with those friends only who really likes you and are always ready to help you before you ask them for help.try to avoid person who want to take benefits of you rather bothering how are you.so be careful in making friends.
