My best friend since I was 10 has developed a habit of lying.  Perhaps she always has lied but it has only been the last few years I have noticed the pattern.  She's lied about jobs, finishing college and sometimes small things like funny anecdotes that are simply not true.  I know they are not true because I was present when the scenarios occurred. On the college front, she came clean about it after several years of lying to me, her parents and many of our friends.  I tried to be understanding and really just listened to her explain why she felt she needed to lie.

Since then she has continued to lie about small an big things and obviously it is sad and disturbing.  We have been friends for almost 30 years. I love her but it is hard to maintain a relationship with someone who lies (and sometimes lies very poorly) to your face.  These lies do not harm me or my life per se but it is stressful to always wonder.

Do I caught her off? Confront her about her problem (I call it a problem because it has cost her friends and jobs)? Or just let it ride?[/quote]
