DEAR HARRIETTE: I moved to Austin, Texas, for work three years in the past, and since then, I’ve been lucky sufficient to construct an awesome group of mates. Nonetheless, there’s one individual in our group, let’s name her “Lily,” who’s been inflicting some pressure.

The problem is that she’s a pathological liar.

She lies about virtually every little thing, each huge and small. As an example, she’ll declare she had a distinct meal than what she truly ate, exaggerate tales about her job and even change primary details about the place she’s from.

Generally she’ll share vivid particulars a couple of explicit expertise or place, solely to inform a very completely different model of the identical story a couple of days later.

What’s troubling is that these aren’t simply small white lies; she fabricates total components of her life.

It’s gotten to the purpose the place we by no means know what’s true with regards to Lily’s tales.

Our pal group all cares about Lily, however the limitless lies are beginning to chip away at our belief in her. We don’t know whether or not to confront her or simply let or not it’s, nevertheless it’s changing into more durable and more durable to disregard.

What’s one of the best ways to deal with this example?

— Mendacity Good friend

DEAR LYING FRIEND: Why do you’re feeling it’s good to stay mates with Lily? In case you can’t take her critically as a result of she continuously lies, how will you construct a significant relationship together with her?

Maybe you may ask her these questions. Put it to her that if she is unwilling or unable to be trustworthy with you, you must restrict your interplay together with her.

If she is a part of a bunch, you should still see her, however maintain your distance. Do your greatest to not get caught up in her drama.

DEAR HARRIETTE: My husband and I’ve been arguing so much all 12 months lengthy, if I’m trustworthy.

We’ve got had a couple of screaming matches lately that ended up with me saying it was over except we may get alongside higher.

Miraculously, my husband has been performing nicer — nothing earth-shattering, however there have been fewer arguments and extra pleasantness.

Ought to I take into account this to be sufficient to remain? Or no less than to attempt to see if we are able to mend issues?

I’m so bored with combating and considerably afraid to strive once more for concern of getting my emotions damage for the thousandth time. He gained’t go to remedy.

— Is It Sufficient?

DEAR IS IT ENOUGH?: Why don’t you take note of your interplay for the subsequent few weeks?

Select to work together with him pleasantly, and encourage the habits you need from him. Make an effort to satisfy him midway. Recommend issues to do this make you content in addition to actions he prefers. See what occurs when you genuinely work to make issues higher.

Assess the scenario with him after a couple of weeks or months have handed. In case you discover yourselves falling into outdated destructive patterns, cease and say one thing. Somewhat than retreating to separate corners, communicate up and level out what has occurred, and counsel that you simply each cease and regroup.

Comply with work collectively in your relationship. If you are able to do that, you might be able to revive your pleasure.
