What to say a friend who is lying?
Don’t flat out say “I think you lied to me,” or worse still, “I know you lied.” Instead, say something like “I think there was some confusion there when you said [insert lie here].” Or, “I wanted to talk to you about [insert lie here].” Your friend will at this point either deny or apologize. Proceed from there.
