Do you encountered a friend that they cheat you for a longer period of time without knowing it? I have a friend in college and I loved her very much and I treat her as my little sister and telling all my secrets but suddenly she cheat me all the time. She get all the attention to my families, boyfriend and saying I'm not contented with one boyfriend that's why my boyfriend dump me. Until now, she think that I've never know what she's doing behind my back.What will I do now? I ask her why she did it ot me? Any help?

dude its very hard to bear when someone cheats either it is a friend or a family. Only one with strong bearing power can withstand such kind of situations. What your problem is, I think you are right, ask what for what reason she lost ur trust in her? If she still ignores u then u tell her that i had only one person to trust upon and today that person is also one of the others. If she has a heart then i am sure she will feel that she did wrong.

I think you have a point Jzeegary. Maybe I should confront her why she did it to me. and why she want to get all the attention of my loved people like family and boyfriend. what is her reason. But if she will ask forgiveness I think I an forgive her but my trust didn't stay as before. My trust to her is lost. Thanks for sharing your comments with us and have a nice day ahead Godbless

Yes i also had a couple of friends who backstabbed me in school and since then i have been careful about whom i know and whom i trust. Once you confide your secrets to them it doesn't become so secretive anymore because a secret is meant for one person only and if anyone else try to remember or tell that to someone else then it won't be a secret anymore will it? Cheers!

Yeah. you are right ravite. We need to be careful whom we want to be friend of and whom we want to confide our secrets. you know, I learn a lesson that better not to trust anybody else but your family only because I believe that the family didn't put us down whatever happen. So, I think I must be very careful next time about it and beware of that kind of friend. Thanks for sharing your comments with us and have a nice day ahead Godbless

They don't deserved to be called friends. If they really treasure your friendship, then they should never cheat. They are selfish.

Hi dear, In what age group your friend and you belong? Everyone's life there may be things which are liked to be confidential and secret and will share only with few intimated and trusted friends only. Being a good friend you need not tell the other party to not to disclose such things. But if they are not matured and easy going type people, they may disclose the things with considering the importance. As you have bitter experience with this person, call the guy/girl, and have an open discussion that such things are not prefer to disclose. Also, henceforth, you can tell the other person also saying that this is not to be disclosed. To a certain extent, this can help you. Getting a friend is not a big thing, but having a good friend indeed a good thing only. At least now you do it saying that do not disclose such things. Try to be a good friend and explain the facts nicely and advice him/her properly, I think this can be resolved. Make the to understand and may be silly thing, but there may be far reaching consequences because of such odd things. The main things is that how you make your friend understand about the facts. Also, if you feel the person is not trust worthy, do not disclose all the things to them. Certain case it will spoil your goodwill. But people having a cruel and cunning way of dealing to be identified and better to cut out such friends slowly.

Hi, like you i encountered the same experienced you have been through and i knew the feeling of being cheated by a friend but then i confronted her the moment i knew she cheated me, we didn't talk for a year then afterward we met and patch up things and said a lot of sorry, now we are more closer than before the cheating incident. So maybe the best thing you will do is to take a risk by confronting her rather than carry the burden alone and seeing her always with so much pain in your heart, besides its unfair to you and to her too coz you acted good to her yet in your heart its not what you like to do to her.

Friends who cheat for their own benefit could not be considered a friend. Instead if a friend tell some lies to make you happy, he/she might be a friend or might just be trying to make friend with you. We will need time to know whether a friend is a true friend or not. We cannot judge a person on a single act, instead we must spend some time observing and get to know a person to tell whether he/she can be trusted or not.

hello careguarden... based on what you've written there, it seems like she's not what you can call a friend... you know friends aren't like that.... people who destroy you aren't your friends....

no one is perfect in this world, and no one is fully bad in this nature. how can you say that she did that wrong? Is there any proof?

yikes. i wonder if you could even call that person a 'friend'. i definitely think that you should confront her and tell her what you know. don't ask why she's doing it because it shouldn't count. just end the friendship there and then. that 'friend' of yours is plain rude and doesn't deserve your friendship. i'm sorry if my response seems cold, but that's just what i would do if it ever happened to me. gladly, i haven't had that experience. so far.
