Today, I received confirmation that one of my long time friends is a compulsive liar. I don't know what else to call it except she has been lying for the 3 years i've known her and continues to lie whenever a lie looks better than the truth. Allow me to explain.
She graduated last year, trying to go to law school right now. When I knew her, she came off as being the model student, she went abroad and told me she got straight As and Bs, and she told me just a few days ago that her graduating GPA from penn state is a 3.7.
I found out today from a copy of her transcript that her graduating GPA is a 2.8, and that the only reason she transfered to PSU from Damen was because her GPA was too low and she needed a fresh start. And now she's killing herself over studying for LSATs because most schools weigh LSATs more than GPA. Shes shooting for a 170 (score range from 120-180) but has never gotten better than a 165.
Additionally - heres where it becomes complicated - one of my roommates dated her - he was a virgin before any of this, and told me that before they had sex that he was ok with it because they were both virgins. I think she may be lying about that too because 1) she invited a drunk guy who was a stranger to sleep in the same bed as her before they dated 2) she has had a lot more boyfriends than my roomate has had girlfriends. and 3) My roomate is a pretty righteous guy, very conservative, and yet they had only been dating 2 months before they started doing the mambo. She came of as being very conservative when she talked. But its only talk.
I'm faced with a decision. Should I confront her and tell her that shes lying and that its wrong (and face scolding and lose her friendship because I was snooping around), have a talk with my roomate on what I just found out (which will probably make him depressed for awhile), or just let everything slide and let them continue doing whatever it is that theyre doing.
They're not together anymore but the problem is my roomate doesnt stop obsessing and pursuing her and the late night phone calls are getting on my last nerves. This is even more true now because I know of her little "secret."
I trust in your judgement.
Btw i'm leaning towards confronting her and then telling my roomate if something else happens.
