My good friend is a compulsive liar what can i do?

Interesting dilemma that will most likely present itself to you again and again...different people...same 'ole sh*t:biggrin:

Your insight into this is good and the sad thing is that people who do not want help will not appreciate your efforts...you cant' change him at all and even if you did help him he would have to do all the work and what you really have to offer is support which he has rejected...

..but you can change how you react to him. Understanding he has a problem is a great first step and then decide if it is a problem you can live with...or not....and proceed accordingly. If it is a problem you cannot accept you should maybe ease away from him and there is nothing wrong with not being able to accept that behavior. I had quite a few compulsive liars amongst my bar customers and knew many of them for years...and though initially I would get a bit pushed out of shape I decided with most of them to just accept that they were who they were and wish them well silently and let them go on as they will.

Good Luck with however you decide to handle it....
