"  My friend lies about her age to her new friends, which creates an awkward situation when I&amp;#039;m around, because we graduated from college the same year. I don&amp;#039;t want to correct her in public, but I don&amp;#039;t want to lie about my own age, either. What should I do? First, let your friend know in private that you&amp;#039;re not comfortable with fibbing. Then, if the age issue doesn&amp;#039;t come up while you&amp;#039;re in a group, control yourself: Don&amp;#039;t bring it up. You might be tempted, but spilling the beans about your pal&amp;#039;s age isn&amp;#039;t a good idea. Why upset your friend? That doesn&amp;#039;t mean, however, that you have to lie, too. If a friend of hers asks, &amp;quot;How can you be 50 when you graduated the same year as Sue?&amp;quot; you could make a joke of it: &amp;quot;Sue must have been precocious.&amp;quot; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
