hi, i have a friend, a very good friend. and i found out that he's been sneaky and dishonest with not only me but many. he's like that. not very harmful things but things to cause trust to break. now im angry and want revenge but i also know its better to forgive. even if i dont react and plan to forgive him, i can't be friends with him anymore. shud i tell him this reason or just start avoiding him?

He's not a good friend. Drop him. Love the dogs. They're better pals.

I would tell him because of his dishonest ways you can no longer associate with him. Do not soft pedal this he needs to know he has lost a good friend because of his ways. His behavior is immature and childish,and he needs to know better. I agree some one who betrays trust is not a friend nor some one who I would want to associate with. Cut him loose

I would just be honest with him. Tell him the reasons that you no longer trust him and let him know you can no longer be friends with him. This way you can cut yourself off cleanly and not waste time avoiding him. If he knows he was in the wrong he won't be surprised by your decision.
