Okay, So i've had really strong suspicions that my BEST friend- Valerie- was talking to people she didnt know. And I've asked her and she's denied it. She always hides her phone from me. I havnt even seen it once! And even when it's an emergency(when I need to speak with my mother)- She is still very stingy with her phone. Sometimes when Valerie gets a new message- I glance over at her phone quickly - and I see she has new messages from guyss like "Jesse, Carlos, Michael, Orlando- People that i've never seen or heard about. So i've had enough, so i decided to ask my friend- Matt- If he could message her on facebook to see if she'd reply and flirt back. Now Matt is an really attractive guy, and Valerie doesn't know him. So Matt messages her and she immediatley starts talking and flirting back with him. I really don't know what to say. So Matt and Valerie havve been talking for a while now- so Matt asks her out. And she says yes of course! And now Val thinks they are dating (although they've never met before) and Matt is just testing her. So then, Matt asks her If she's gonna tell anyone about their realtionship. She says "all my friends except my best friend." (Im her best friend). And Matt asks her why. She says "Because my friend bethany is really protective and judgemental, and I don't want her to know. She'll make us end our relationship, and she'll start some fights." When i saw these messages I was upset. Im not a protective person. The only protective thing I've ever done is this because I'm worried about my friends saftey. So Matt sends me a message on facebook- and he copies& pastes their ENTIRE conversation, So then i can confront Valerie and show her the messsages. When I tell her- she completley lies to me. She tells me that he made up all the messages (it's about 5 pages long) and she tells me that Matt was her old friend at her old school. Of course I pretend to believe her, but in the back of my mind I know the entire truth. I just couldn't believe she could look me in the eye and lie to me like that. They are suppossed to hangout this Friday, and of course Valerie isn't going to tell me about it. Little does she know.. Second of all- Im not a judgemental person- I accept everyone as my friend as long as they re caring and nice. If anything Valerie is judgemental- She didnt like my friends at first. She called them loud, and annoying, etc. And she didnt even know them. Matt also called me a protective b*tch to Val- to see if Valerie would back me up. SHE DIDNT. So what should I do about this? Should I ignore it, confront it? I really don't want to confront it because she'll say something like this- "I'm your best friend- you dont believe me?" What should I do??
SORRY for the long message. But I really need someone's help!
Thank You

lol best friends don't lie to each other they trust each other lol. Now she also wasn't being a best friend of yours when matt called you a protective ***** (I know that he was just kidding) but she didn't even step in lol thats not being a best friend! Best friends don't do what Valerie is doing lol! Just end the friendship with her! You have tried your best to help her she hasn't been thanking you thats her problem! You don't deserve drama in your life lol!

Well, really.. you should actually go there with Matt and when Valerie sees that YOU know him, she'll be completely cornered. Now really, that's not a best friend. If you do have other friends, just hang out with them, Why do you need a best friend who's that mean to you? If she can't trust you or evenn want to get your opinion on something, then that's not CLOSE to a true friend.

im in the same situation and you are not over protective or judgmental. like you said you just care about her safety and the best thing you can do is to meet with her and matt to come face to face.... tell her how you feel about this situation and then have matt tell her it was just a plan to test her...... she really does need to stop doing what shes doing... no offense but her parents need to do the same thing your doing so she won't wind up in a dark alley raped some day because the guy she meet on facebook was a rapist........ know what im saying???? you need to tell her this when you sit down with her and matt... tell her your not a over protective person or judgmental your just trying to help her out.... hope this helps....really

think about what she said. she is allowed to keep her personal secrets to herself. would you have started a fight if you had found out? if you really dont like that she is flirting with all these guys, then get a new friend. she might be afraid that if you found out about all these guys then you would want to get a new friend. she seems to want to keep this friendship close, but she feels like she has to lie in order to do so. stop meddling with facebook. if you want answers, get them from her directly. she is under a lot of stress and I know you are too.



the first thing you need to do is tell her the whole truth that you heard. tell her about how you know matt and that you know what she said. apologize for being to scared to confront her directly. then ask her for her side of the story. if she tries to lie again and say "Im your best friend! don't you believe me?" then all you need to say is "you're my best friend. I want to believe you."



the proper definition of Best Friend is: a person that knows all your faults and sill cares about you despite them.



think about it.
KLD it.

I honestly just skimmed this over. But I feel comfortable telling you to end your relationships with these people as civilly as possible. Unless you want to keep this sort of drama in your life, you need to ditch them.

This is what I would do I ask her why she didn't back me up when matt called me that and if she doesn't answer I would just tell her I don't want to be her friend anymore and then you'll know that your friendship wasn't met to be. That's is my advice if you don't like it you don't have to use it.BYE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow...uh you should probably not be her friend anymore.( I mean I wouldn't want my best friend to be lying to me constantly) But idk maybe you should probably just tell her you know EVERYTHING and that your not protective....etc......



Good Luck :)
