Lying To A Friend

Email this topic | Download this topic

Friendship is built on trust. The strongest friendships can withstand the test of both time and distance, outlast many romantic relationships and act as a grounding force in our lives. Is it ever OK to lie to a friend? Now, I'm not talking about the "yes, I just LOVE your new haircut" or "hands-down your son is the best player on the field" type of lie. No no. I mean the "I saw your husband kissing another woman", "No, I didn't break off the affair even though I swore that I did", "I think your new girlfriend is great (but I did see her stripping at the local club last weekend)" kind of lie. Whether to protect your friend's feelings or to protect your own-is it ever OK to lie to a friend?
Getting Caught
Getting caught in a lie is never easy. Getting caught lying to a friend is especially hard. This person that looks to you for guidance, help and honesty may have a hard time accepting that you lied for noble reasons.
