I have an ex best friend who used to lie about all sorts of things. She lied about some pretty serious things like terminal illness, ab**se, and a bunch of other big and small things. I confronted her twice about some of the lies and she seemed so calm that I couldn’t tell what was going on in her head. She obviously denied everything but provided absolutely no evidence to back up her claims. I moved on after the first confrontation and let things go thinking that now that she knows I know, she won’t lie to me again. But then it kept happening again. And after the second confrontation, I just stopped talking to her. However, I’ve always wanted to know how she had such a calm demeanor after being presented with a mountain of evidence against her. I was her closest friend. We grew up together. But she never even tried to salvage the friendship.
So, I guess my question to all the pathological liars of Reddit is, what are you going through on the inside when you’re confronted about your lies with undeniable evidence?
