Problem: Article: to talk to your friend. You may be afraid of telling your friend how you feel — it can be scary to make yourself vulnerable to rejection, and you risk changing or ending your relationship. If you choose to talk to your friend, you may need to build up your courage before having that conversation. Being brave means facing your fears and do something that is uncomfortable. Remember that change and growth requires you to push yourself and do something challenging. Practice what you'll say to your friend so that you become more comfortable expressing yourself.  Do things that build your confidence. This may mean saying affirmations out loud, doing an activity you know you're good at, or reminding yourself of your accomplishments. Remind yourself that if your friend is not interested, it doesn't mean anything is wrong with you. Romantic feelings can't be forced, and sometimes people just don't feel it. In the majority of cases it has more to do with the other person than with you. Ask your friend if they can meet you at a time when you are both free to talk at length. Meet somewhere you can speak in private and where you feel comfortable. Doing this in front of other people or making a big gesture might put even more pressure on your friend or make them panic. If you have tried to avoid falling in love with your friend but it happened anyway, you may need to express those feelings. If you've thought through the risks of telling them and feel it's worth the risk, you may want to tell your friend. It's not healthy to bottle up your feelings, and if it's torturing you or causing issues with your friendship, it's probably your best option to tell them how you are feeling. It's not necessary to make a huge declaration — just be honest, clear, and not too over the top (it may be a shock to your friend to find out about your feelings, so keep it low-key if possible). Try saying something like, "My feelings toward you have changed, and I like you as more than a friend. I would like to try having a romantic relationship with you. How does that make you feel?" to your friend. Once you have expressed yourself, it's time to let your friend respond. Try to put aside your fears about being rejected or plan what you'll say when your friend stops talking and truly listen. Make eye contact, ask questions if you need to, and try repeating back what is said to confirm you understand. Respect whatever your friend says they feel. They may feel surprised, confused, angry, or any number of emotions. If your friend says they are not interested in a romantic relationship with you, don't try to talk them into it or argue. If they say they are confused and need some time to think, tell them you can give them space and that you will be available to talk more when they are ready. If you have feelings for your friend, you'll need time to sort through those feelings and figure out what your friendship means to you. Your friend may need time and space to figure things out as well, or simply to reduce any lingering tension between the two of you.  While giving your friend space, it's best to limit the time you spend together, including time spent on the phone, texting, or chatting online. Try to put your friend out of your mind as much as possible. You can do this by distracting yourself with hobbies or work, or by spending more time with a different friend.
Summary: Build up your courage Choose the right time. Be honest and assertive. Listen Give one another space.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: If someone is lying to you, there’s a good chance that electronic proof exists. People often log their locations and activities on social media. Texting and instant messaging also make up a large portion of person to person communication. If you can gain access to someone’s phone or social media account, you will likely know who they are talking to and what they have been doing. Think long and hard before you go snooping around in your partner’s digital accounts, though. What if they aren’t lying? Are you going to lie about doubting them and invading their privacy, or come clean? If you believe someone is lying about where they are going, you can find out with a simple stakeout. Go to the place that they claim to be and keep yourself out of sight. Watch closely to see what time they arrive, what time they leave, or if they were even there at all. If their story checks out, they were telling the truth. If not, you have proof that they were lying to you. You may want to hire a professional (such as a private investigator) if you might need proof for legal proceedings, such as evidence of infidelity for a potential divorce.  Also, stakeouts aren’t as easy or as fun as they might appear to be on TV. If you suspect someone is lying to you, you can always ask other people they know. You can ask bluntly (“Were they really with you last night?”) if you are comfortable doing that. If not, you can try to get the information you need through casual conversation (“Did you two have a good time last night?”). A skilled liar will try to concoct a good “cover story” for the people you’re likely to ask; but those people may not be good liars themselves. If you’ve built up a strong case that the person isn’t telling you the truth, go ahead and confront them directly with the evidence: “I’m sorry, but your story about what you did last night just doesn’t add up, and I’m confident that you’re not telling me the truth. What really happened?” The person will either finally come clean, fumble around trying to build another lie around the old one, or get upset that you don’t trust them.  If you’re worried they’ll respond poorly, wait until you’re both calm and composed before confronting them. If the person is a compulsive liar, don’t assume that catching them in a lie will cause them to change their ways.
Summary:
Look for digital proof. Conduct a stakeout. Verify their story with friends or family. Confront the liar.
