White Lies: Are you willing to do it?

I am just like you and I wouldn't do anything to ruin the relationships that my friends are in. For example, I know that my best friend has had some indiscrepancies in her relationship with her boyfriend, but there is no way that I'm going to tell him about it because I don't want to hurt her. However, I think even more than that the reason that I keep these kinds of white lies is because of the fact that I don't ever want to do anything that will hurt my own relationship with my friend as she is very important to me.

It's a tough choice, does your friend really not care about his lover betraying him? If so, poor your friend because he insists on a relationship that he can never get true love. I am sure once that girl make her final decision about not choosing your friend, your friend will be much more sorrowful Anyway, as for a good friend, probably you are suffering now as well, cuz on one hand, he is your good friend and you do not want him to feel sad, on the other hand, he is your good friend and you can not stand he's being cheated by someone he loves so much

Do interfere! I mean seriously, if you were in such a position wouldn't you want your friend to come to you and wake you up? Keeping the secret within you is not doing good to anyone. She is eventually going to find out and then if she finds out that you knew all this and kept it a secret, she would be even more mad at you. Anyways, that is what i think. Good luck.

This is a tough situation. I would not interfere in the situation. I am not willing to lie. Honesty is always the best policy, even when the situation is bad.

Sometimes Im sure this act is needed. i sure hope we never get in a habit of it. There is a saying white lies wont hurt us.

i think this story like film.i think you have good able for get good decided .today we can heard bad news.the main reason of the this news human have not able get good dission .your lovely boy for world.

If anyone claims they have never told a white lie, then I say that person is lying. We tell white lies to keep from hurting another's feelings. For example, a friend spends a long time making something and are very proud of their results. The friend asks what you think of it. You think it is ugly and one of the worst things you've ever seen, but do you tell your friend that? No, you don't want to hurt your friend's feelings and totally devastate him/her, so you tell your friend a white lie -- that yes, you like it and you think it is very nice. What you are doing concerning your friend's affair, borgieboy, doesn't really sound like a white lie exactly. It sounds more like you are just not sharing ALL the information you know and you are choosing to skirt around the issue by giving indirect responses. Nothing wrong with that either. Besides, in a case like that, unless I am asked directly if so-and-so is having an affair, then I just stay out of it. None of my business. Anyway, you said your friend doesn't even care if she's being cheated on, just as long as she's the priority, so I don't understand how you would even ruin their relationship.

I also am guilty of this, not because I like to lie but because I think it will not do any good to hurt someone close to me. For example, when my bestfriend was pregnant, she would always ask me if she looks terrible. Which of course she is because she's getting fatter and her hormones made her face break out. But I would always tell her she's glowing and she looks good. If I told her the truth, she might not eat properly and she might get depressed. In your case, it is better to stay out of it. And I would even say the next time he asks me, I would say "I don't know, why don't you contact her directly. It's been a while since I saw her last." It can get pretty ugly and it won't do you any good to be caught in the middle of the brewing drama.
