reader, anonymous, writes (12 November 2007): It's not the most fortunate manner of looking for publicity, if a person constantly and deliberately lies to get attention. The correct way to go about it would have been to step back cautiously, and maybe pointing out she has this problem, stating clearly your intentions aren't negative - but this is debatable as many times our good purposes can turn against us, being misconceived. Paradoxically. Shouldn't have acted behind her back. She interpreted it as negative headlines and to "rescue" her reputation invented another lie. Such "friendship" will usually be detrimental as you will be suspect as "by alliance." As a lesson, avoid such complications for the future and be more selective. As for your other friends that believed her, people can take sides very hastily. You just move on. You can't start a crusade about this. Be discreet about it and people should eventually appreciate you for that. If not, appreciate yourself. And you do need to be more selective from now on. Good luck!

 Eventually, someone else will notice how much of a liar she is. In the mean time I would stay away from her. it is no fun having a friend who lies constantly b/c you never know what to believe. in my opinion you have saved yourself lots of headaches.
