How to deal with liars?

mirwillbeback

I have a " mate " and I use the term loosely as I'm fed up with his f*cking lies. About a year and a half of it, and I'll list some beauties below -

" i've slept with hundreds of girls "

" i went back to hers, shagged her, woke up and she was in this lingerie with a whip and we shagged about 6 times "

" i was praised as being unbelievably talented in [ sport ] after only doing it two months "

" [ celebrity ] offered me to stay in his house to save me on hotels "

Some of the lies have been so outrageous, others have later been factually discovered to be false.

What would ye do?

Laugh at them.

thealltimelow

The attention and interest you provide them is their reward.

Remove the reward.

Look for advice on the internet

Look for advice on the internet which is fool of liars

Podge2k7

Just ignore them!

Lollipops23

lordy i hate people who do this;they're obviously fúcked in the head!

next time just say "really?cos that sounds like utter bull****" and see what he says. if he persists say, "ok prove it, show me how good you are at *whatever sport*" or "ok,get your celeb mate on the phone"

call his bluff and sit back,relax and watch him squirm.

jprender

Tell a bigger lie.

eg. He Says "I've slept with hundreds of girls", you say "I've slept with thousands of girls"

He will soon realise how ridiculous he sounds.

Quazzie

Sounds like you're jealous tbh.

Try following him around and see if he telling the truth. Remain hidden at all costs and then you'll finally know.

WARNING: May lead to his next story being how he used to have a mate who lost the plot and went all ghey for him.

Rhyme

Ask him to involve/introduce you in some of the miraculous happenings in his life. See how that works out.

I trust you'll use discretion while choosing which to involve yourself in.

maxwell smart

Pretend to be interested and then...oh hang in, it seems you are interested, otherwise he would have stopped by now.
I'd go for telling an even more unbelievable story, so if he says "I slept with hundreds of girls" you say, "I slept with hundreds of girls, and their ma's":D

I always find that setting their pants on fire ends any disagreement on the matter.

Slow Motion

Put them in the Dail with the rest!

Poor Uncle Tom

I think we all know some Walter Mitty characters, as long as they're not hurting anyone they are harmless. He'll grow out of it when he looses his virginity....:)

jprender

Poke him in the eye everytime he tells a fib.

Pretend to sleep when he starts his stories

just say "stop lying you big liar"

If he says he shagged a girl six times, find said girl and get him to say it again in front of her.

maxwell smart

He's probably already been to the Dail, done the 3 Marys (that's Harney, Hanafin and Coughlan) and the two Brians (Lenihan and Cowan) on the way back out!

Saibh

Once a liar always a liar. Change the topic of conversation or just ignore him.

Abi

Its not exactly rocket science. Tell him hes a lying bastard and not to bother his hole calling until he stops talking shite.

jprender

He will say that he is a rocket scientist

Abi

This sounds like a job for Face Kicker..

Counter his lies with even more outragous lies of your own!

I have a habit of meeting, not "normal" liars, but compulsive liars. Friends that tell you they have cancer :mad: Their mam died :mad: They were mugged..serious! Everyone tells little white lies like "I ate something dodgy last nite and i won't be in for work" and it was because *I was on the *p1ss*. Not going to the extreme of some of the freaks I've encountered that were supposed to be close friends.

In my job I've learned a few things for interviewing people for vacancies.

The most common signs are:

1: To be honest (its commonly used by people covering up something or lying about something and buying time to think of a lie), used by a lot of HR departments, so never use the term at an interview
2: People shrugging their shoulders and tilting their head to the left is a lie and to the right is the truth
3: lick their lips alot
4: hand to face touches (ears and hair etc)

The list goes on and it makes me paranoid when i'm talking to people as it feels you're trying to suss them out and you're on automatic mode. If you think someone is lying, you're probably right.

Friends that lie constantly, get rid! They're going to do ya damage eventually and God knows what they're saying about you behind you're back. They always have a motive

dylano_k

Throw a toilet roll at him and say "wipe your lip mate...because your talking shíte"

ejmaztec

I reckon the OP's lying.

Roadend

Kick his face in, and then lie and say it wasn't you

Overheal

Ask him about his flying bicylce sometime.

PK2008

Mercilessly taske the pi55 out of him everytime I see him, preferably in front of other mates, for being such a bull5hitter

My name is URL

Just wait until he tells you the next big lie, then say that someone had already mentioned that to you.

He'll have to either come clean or continue lying to you even though he knows you know its bullsh!t

Jesus Juice

Pretend to sneeze everytime hes lying then say Oh sorry I'm allergic to bullshit!
