If Your Best Friend Lies To You...

Just a simple direct lie when asked a simple direct question. Twice.

I don't take being lied to very well.
 
I'm not one to have a "best" friend.
It may sound cliched, but my wife is my best friend - only person I trust with EVERYTHING.

No, if you have someone flat out lying to you, and you know it, you need to call them out, and then re-evaluate your level of trust.
 
what was the question?

Did you borrow $100 from me? and a lie is no good

Did you drink my last beer? and he says no then not that bad since I've done that

Did you crush off my wife? and lie is no good
 
obviously subject matter matters......claiming he drank 4 beers when you know he had 6 is one thing. I assume this was over something more substantial. You can call him out, or file it away in your head that he no longer values your friendship like he once did.......and adjust your trust level in him accordingly.

Tim, thats what I was thinking too. Dammit, I hate chit like this. I've been pissed off all day and I'm sure its not gonna get better until I confront him.

The closest person I have to a "best" friend (aside from my wife) is a guy a I used to work with back in Toledo.
I lost touch with him for a few years, and just recently got back in touch with him.
We saved each others lives a few times - literally.
And if I needed work, he took me on, if he needed work, I took him on in my Co.
We lived out of each others billfolds at times.

I don't want to lament about my wife, but she truly is the only person I fully trust - And I'm a very lucky man to have found her.

But if the guy's lying to you, if you care about him, you need to ask why.
A "best" friend doesn't lie without an explanation.
 
put your phone on video and if he lies again hand out a free face punch

face it- if thinking this way and if he did in fact lie even if he came clean now you will never trust him again- or at least I wouldn't
