Will You Tell The Truth Even If It Hurts Your Friend?

Question:
Let say you have one friend who loves this guy very much for a long time.....and she thinks he loves her too....but you know for the fact he doesnot love her (because he told you that and said he doesnot know how to tell her the truth. He doesnot ask you to tell her either though.)
Would you tell your friend the truth ....even if you know it will hurt her deeply?
Please tell me what to do!
Thank you very much.
Answer:
She's gonna find out sooner or later if not from you then from someone else. The truth sucks some times, but it's not going to kill her.
So tell her. She'll live.
Answer:
Well, the guy should man up and just tell her. you shouldnt get into the middle of it. but if he can't man up then.. well. she needs to find out somehow
Answer:
I won`t tell her and I will try to encourage her to start liking other guys. Because let`s say for example if you DID tell her, she might get mad at you and ask you how you know for sure and if you guys confront the guy together. The guy might just chicken out and say he didnt say that. T_T So I think if your friendship with the girl is as strong as it sounds, you wouldn`t want to put the friendship on risk right?
Answer:
If I had a friend, and he/she knew that the person I like didnt like me back, I sure would expect them to tell me as soon as possible before the feeling grows more or I make a mistake.
So yeah, you should always tell the truth. Im a real anti-lies person, not even white lies are acceptable in my opinion..
Answer:
Yes. I fail at empathy, so..
Answer:
I would tell her. I was in a similar situation...
Answer:
I had a problem, something like that. I'm only fourteen and I know I'm really young, but my best friend and I thought we were in love. Trust me, we're not the type of girls who go out with a different guy every week, and we know that the word 'love' shouldn't be played around with. Okay, so my best friend and I were REALLY close. We were the famous best friends of school & everyone knew us because we were seen together so much. We were either talking on the phone for hours or spending time together, & I don't even know how to explain how close we were. So there was this guy named Brian. We both had a major crush on him, and we really felt it was love. I felt that because he was kind of like my boyfriend. He called me every day, he told me he liked me, we hung out, everything. We talked for hours at a time, and he called me at least ten times a day, no joke. My best friend liked him because he called her to ask about girls, which the only reason for that was because he wanted to know more about me. She really thought she had something special with him, but one day, he told her that he liked me and she was completely heartbroken. I didn't know how to respond to that, so being the idiot that I was, I thought that he would wait for me. He asked me out I don't know how many times, but I turned him down every time. I didn't want him to know that I was practically in love with him, even though I knew he sensed I liked him too. I did that for my best friend. I loved her, and I didn't want to break her heart again by going out with him. That would be too harsh, even though she told me that it's okay. Of course it wasn't, I knew it wasn't okay. Then he found out that his parents were going to get a divorce, and he started going the wrong way. He started skipping school days at a time, then weeks, then months. He couldn't call me because his phone was taken away. When he managed to sneak the phone from his mom and called me, I told him we should hang up because I knew he would get in trouble when his mother saw the bill. Then we just lost it. Slowly, we lost it. Well, I didn't lose it; he did.
My best friend was always in between. And I chose her over the boy I believed I was in love with. I still regret that, so much. I thought he would wait for me, I really thought that, but he didn't. Maybe I should have told him why I couldn't go out with him, or at least that I liked him too. At least, I could have told him how I felt about him, but I didn't.
Hmm, I dunno how this really relates to this, I'm sorry.
But you should really tell your friend the truth.
Answer:
I have to tell frankly to him...even though she/he would hurt at least you open honest & to put him in reality (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sweatingbullets.gif)
Answer:
He doesnot ask you to tell her either though.

let him tell her~its their business~you may be her friend but this guy has to man up and tell her

Answer:
yes i would
taking it head on is better than avoiding it and letting it grow
Answer:
The truth will set us free.
I say tell her and get it over with.
She'll learn about it sooner or later and so why not now?
Even if it's going to hurt her, try to make her understand and
it's your duty as her friend to tell her what's going on.
Tell her.
Answer:
If you were in her situation, would you want her to tell you the truth???? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)
