Well no one can trust a lier, so in order for her to trust you, you have to work on yourself so you arent a pathological lier. So get some professional help so you can get to the root of whats causing this. If you do take action to get helpwith your problem, let her know, and then she may be willing to give you another go.

Guilt is a good start. What is it about you that makes you feel as if you have to inflate or expand who you are to gain the approval from her?
How do you get her to trust you? EARN IT. That's the only way. You need to realize people don't owe you anything. They aren't required to trust you. That's a make or break part of life. You earn it, or you don't. How do you get it to start going that way? By doing. When you say you're going to do something it gets done.
At the same time of doing that, I want you to do a self evaluation. The only way to really change this behavior is to find out what could be the cause of it. What causes you to feel as if you need to be untruthful? The lying as an action is not the issue. It's a cause from a greater issue. It could be low self esteem, depression, lack of confidence, and it could also be learned, such as family that focused on status to pick their friends.
Take care and good luck.
