Friends should always be honest with you, right? So when they lie, it can be really hard to take. You want to trust your friends and that means knowing that they'll tell it to you straight no matter what it is. Why does this happen?
One of the biggest reasons friends lie is simply to avoid hurting your feelings. Some people don't understand the difference between being gently honest with a friend and being so straightforward that they leave a verbal wound. They choose to avoid these two extremes in the form of a lie.
Sometimes friends will lie about things in their life because they are too embarrassed to admit the truth. Maybe they are going through a rough time and they just don't want you to know about it. Avoid trying to badger (纠缠) your friends into telling you what's wrong.
Avoid an argument with you.
Perhaps your friends know that if they tell you the truth, you'll get angry with them. Make sure that if a friend tells you something unpleasant, you don't overact. If you do end up arguing, do it in a respectable way.
Exclude you.
Lying isn't always a sign that friends are trying to protect you, however. When you find out with certainty that your friend is lying to you, try and face it. If you feel your friend is lying because he or she doesn't want to be around you, that's your wake-up to move on.
A. Protect your feelings.
B. They want to be your closer friends.
C. But a friend who lies isn't always trying to hurt you.
D. Consider what's being said and why your friend is telling you this.
E. Being honest and making a sincere effort can keep the friendship strong.
F. Sometimes they lie because they don't want you to be included in their plans.
G. Instead, make it clear that you are there for them when and if they are ready to talk.
A. Choose your friends wisely. B. They may seem to happen quickly. C. They will help shape the future. D. You may appreciate what you have in your own life. E. You will probably want to be independent. F. The choices that you make from now on will be your choices. G. Your family has been with you since you came into this world. |
