I think my friend is lying about being pregnant..?

I think my friend is lying about being pregnant...?

a couple weeks ago a close friend to me she had sex with a guy she liked but he completely blew her off as soon as they were done... i believe he would do something like that ( he's an ******) but i dont really believe she had sex with him.

when she tells me things, they never really match up with each other but i really hope she doesnt go this extreme with a lie. should i confront her about the pregnancy or just be on her side even if it is a lie?

    well, she cannot lie forever because a person is either pregnant or not. No such thing as a little pregnant.

    Time will expose her as a liar, if in fact she is.

    I would say nothing.

    As long as you consider yourself her friend, you must have decided to put up with the lying. I have a friend like that and I just make noncommittal answers when she tells me stuff I am pretty sure is a load of crap. You can get away with a lot by simply saying, "Mmm. That sounds awful." Or "Oh wow, really?"

    On the other hand, if you have had enough of the BS, wait until she should clearly be showing and confront her. Tell her having her lie to you about stupid stuff like that is disrespectful of your friendship and she needs to stop or you will move on to other friends.

    EDIT: Danny, you are perfect example of someone lying about stupid stuff.

    How is lying about working in customer service cooler than getting an education?

    Both your lies involve going to a performing arts school so the lies make no sense. As to what others think.....You did say you were an adult so again, who cars what others think. A pharmacy tech is a perfectly good job and a needed skill and performing arts sounds like you are letting the artistic side of you shine as well. No need to lie at all, my friend.

    Seek help before you lose the friends you are lying to.

    Cut her some slack. I mean, if she's lying, that obviously means that the time isn't just right for her to come out about her pregnancy. I mean, if she really is pregnant. Being a teenager is not easy work. I'm sure you know that. But I just had to say that. Haha. But yeah, I mean, I've been going through some pretty rough times for quite a while. I mean, I lie about what happens in my personal life. I tell my friends, "Yeah. I go to this college and I'm taking my prerequisites so I can transfer to a school with performing arts," "I work as a customer service representative," "I live in this place. It's a really nice neighborhood." The truth is, all of that is a lie. I go to a college where it's all medical field, studying to be a Pharmacy Tech. so I can have a job and also attend a performing arts school, I live in a ghetto neighborhood. Why do I lie? Because I'm scared people will get the idea that I was forced by my Parents into a medical field school. I'm an adult. I can make my own decisions. I'm scared people will make fun of me because I live in a not so beautiful house. I don't want to go through that. I mean, I'm bisexual. And in high school, I was made fun of because of my sexuality. I guess all that affected me to the point where I need to keep some things bottled. So to end this, if she really is pregnant and she's lying, then that means that she doesn't want to get hurt because of what she sees what happens to pregnant teenage girls. They get made fun, they get called whores, etc. So kinda try to see her point. When the time's right, she'll tell you. Good luck. :)

    She can't lie about something like this forever, the truth will come out soon enough. Until then I would just ignore it. Unless she's being really obnoxious about it I don't see any reason to challenge her. Eventually when it becomes obvious she's lying she will feel really stupid. But, there's always the chance that she's telling the truth so you should give her the benefit of the doubt.

    some people are just like random liars that lie about everything but alot of girls lie about being pregnant to for attention and if he is ignoring her that could be the reason but if so she is really lame. and in no way being pregnant cool. but as for you i would just go along with whatever if shes lying theres a time limit to how long she can lie so just see where it goes.

    Just ask her, if she truly is your friend, she won't get too mad at you. If she still insists on being pregnant, then just believe her and support her. All we have to do is wait 3-5 months, and we'll know for sure if she's pregnant or not! Haha. Good luck and I hope everything goes well!

    be on her side even if because if she really is and she has no guy then she'll need help but if she is lying you can ask her why and still comfort her in a way!...however you should still ask her if its a lie or not because if it isnt a lie its seriouse buisness.

    try and talk to her about being pregnant seriously.

    like i mean, thats a big deal so try and "sit down' and have a serious talk about it.

    If shes lying, she will be really REALLY uncomfortable and back her into a corner in her lie.

    then confront her.

    One way to see if she is lying is to say..Omg..are you serious??? You should talk to your parents..here Ill call your mom right now and talk to her about having a talk with you..ohh..we should goto the teachers so that they know whats going on..and we should tell his parents (the ''injector''..heh heh) lets go..she may freak..and spil..or just watch her stomach..

    If she is lying she will have to come up with some excuse why she hasnt given birth eventually wont she?
