writes: I think I made myself look real bad here and need some advice...A week ago my friend was at a party and made out with a girl, while he was dating someone else.Well my girlfriend is bestfriends with the girl he's dating, so she asked me if he done anything, and I said he kissed a girl (she was already onto him), so to make him look better I said he was really drunk and din't know what was going on.Anyways she questioned him, and he said he ended up kissing her, but he told the story straight, saying that he was sober as a judge at the time.So now my girlfriend thinks I'm a liar, any advice?

Don't lie to your girlfriend. Either tell her what happened asking that she not say anything or admit you don't trust your girlfriend.

Well, yes, you did mess up a little. Yes, your girlfriend is probably a little pissed.. however, this situation sounds like something that can easily heal with time.
You were stuck in a very awkward position. You probably felt like you ought to be loyal to your best friend, by defending his honor - but still felt loyalty to your girlfriend and her best friend. So, you told her about the worst that happened (him kissing another gal), and then tried defending your best friend by fibbing and saying he was drunk.
Hopefully, you girlfriend can try to understand why you did what you did. Apologize and try to explain yourself as best you can... with time, she will hopefully forgive you and let this whole thing blow over.
Good luck, sweetness!

Maybe you could explain that you said as much to try and ease the blow for her. After all, you were trying to save face for both of them, right? Maybe it wasn't the smartest choice but I think that you should let her know that your intent was sincerely good. Letting her know you won't do that again would probably be the most important thing I think.Hope this helps
