    Ok so, years ago I had a girlfriend who lied to me about being pregnant. Just as I was about to tell my parents (I was under 18 at the time) she said she had a miscarriage, at the time I was young, stupid and blinded by "love" to think she could be lying! (A lot more lies thats just the main one)
    Anyway its been a few years and I've grown up a lot, however it still bothers me, I mean should it still bother me, was it that bad?

    This all comes about because I just found out through the joys of facebook the girl I'm seeing at the moment knows my ex. Any adivce on how to handle this would be great, should I talk to one of them? or am I just blowing the whole thing up?

    Do you *know* she was lying? Could she have thought she was pregnant? Need more info here.

    Yeah you are blowing the whole thing up. Why does it matter if she knows the girl your seeing?

    Fair enough if theres more to this but unless you give more info how is anyone to offer advice?

    Lying how?

    You think she lied and was never pregnant in the first place? If so, def it let it go. That could have just been teenage drama BS on her part, or she could be sort of crazy, in which case you don't want to engage her in drama like that!

    Lying in that you think she got an abortion but claimed she miscarried? Def let it go, not the least of which is because she probably wasn't lying - miscarriage is far, far more common that abortion, especially when young. An estimated 20% pregnancies miscarry - and that's just the ones that know they are pregnant before the miscarriage. Less than 2% of pregnant women abort.

    Now, if you think she's lying about miscarriage and you have a kid running around somewhere, well, then I'd say talk to her.
