Don't tell them that you know they lied. Let them tell you. Maybe the thing they are trying to hide is really important to them that no one finds out. I know that's kind of hard to do because you feel like they should tell you anything because they are your best friend. But, just let them come to you. In time they will but if they don't and you can't take it anymore tell them you know. Don't get mad at them or anything until you have heard why exactly they lied to you and what it was about. Then, make the decision to be mad at them or not. If it's just a small thing try not to be mad, try to understand. If it's a big thing sometimes in order for a friend to earn their lesson you need to be mad at them. But, don't make them beg for your friendship because that's wrong just be mad at them until they apologize and tell you it will never happen again. If it does happen again be mad at them again until you feel that they really got the message. Thanks! Keep asking!!

How do you know if your female friend as a crush on you?

I'm a girl, and my best advice is to just go with it. If you're into her, tell her. No one likes being lied to. If you don't like her, just be a friend and go along with things. She'll tell you when she wants you to know.


How can you regain trust in your best friend when they have lied to you they know you know but won't confront the issue?

First, they are not your best friend if they lied to you and won't admit it. It is up to them to prove themselves to you. It takes a long time for someone to rebuild trust after they have broken it. Ask yourself this, if they lied to you once, how do you ever know they are telling the truth or when they will lie again.
