My best friend is lying about being pregnant… what do I do?

Question:  My best friend is lying about being pregnant… what do I do?

Answer:  Lying in general is extremely dangerous.  It may be helpful to explain to your friend that you are concerned about her safety for when loved ones find out.  I am unsure on why she feels she needs to lie about something so serious, but it would be beneficial to have a conversation with her to ask why she feels she needs to lie and help her problem solve alternative solutions because the truth will be revealed in nine months.
