My friend’s been lying and telling everyone we’ve slept together

Dear Coleen

I recently found out that one of my best friends told everyone at his college (he goes to a different college to me) that I made him have sex with me and that’s the reason he split up with his girlfriend of 18 months.

The fact is, it never happened and I actually take pride in the fact that I’m still a virgin at almost 18.

Word has spread around his college and now it’s starting to spread around mine that I’m a horrible person and I’m the reason my friend and “the love of his life” broke up! What do I do?

I feel so hurt and betrayed.

Coleen says

He’s being incredibly immature and has made up this story to take the heat off himself.

His girlfriend has either found out he’s been up to no good so he’s blamed you instead of telling the truth – or he’s embarrassed about being dumped and was looking for a macho reason to impress his mates and save face.

Look, don’t get depressed about it – turn it around.

First of all, this guy was a friend before this, so speak to him and tell him that he either admits it never happened or you’ll be contacting his ex to tell her the truth.

Tell him you’ll also make sure that everyone else knows – and he won’t come out of it looking pretty if you’re the one who has to set the record straight.

If anyone’s nasty to you, come back with something like, “How could I possibly make him have sex with me? I would never sleep with him because he’s just a friend.”

He did this to save his own skin, but if he wants to save your friendship, then he’ll tell the truth. I’m sure your other (true) friends will support you and get the word out, too.
