No. I will not lie even for a friend. 

But I will withdraw from talking when asked. I will encourage my friend to come out and tell the truth, seek forgiveness and promise not to do it again.

Your such a good Friend. True friendship comes when the silence between two people is comfortable.

True friends aren't the ones who make your problems disappear. They're the ones who won't disappear when you're facing problems and challenges.

It depends on the situation. To be frank most of the situations I will stand by my friend side and will try to cover my friends mistake. But I know it is not correct. A true friend must tell the mistake of their friends.

If I can still keep his or her dirty secret, then I will do it. However, if things are turned to me and be blamed because of his or her wrongdoings, then it is better to say things against him or her. I am sorry if he or she is going to stay away from me.

If the mistakes can be harmful for a lot people (like he is a drug seller), you should tell the truth, maybe inform it to their family and not to the police, so you can still befriend with him and he gets some advices/warns from his family to become a better person. The bottom line is you can do lies for something worthy

If a lie is something that could make your friend from getting into trouble then there's nothing wrong to lie for your friend but still honesty is the best policy. We must understand the situation that if we should lie or be truthful. In both case it should be beneficial for your friend.

I would not but instead I will tell my friend to speak the truth for her own sake. It will mean that if I do so by telling a lie,they will be used and our friendship will be a fake one.

I agree. He or she is not a real friend if it happens. I think a friend will always be there through thick and thin.

As long as there is no harm done to anyone in the event of telling lies. Its ok.

Generally hiding mistakes is a common thing among friends, especially with friends parents, but at the same time should tell our friend that what he/she is doing is not correct and has to be rectified.

I'd rather lose Him/Her than to support His/Her wrong doing. Telling the truth although it hurts is a good virtue to have. If I can't stay honest on what He/She do, I won't be an honest friend to Him/Her as well. So I urge everyone to speak for truth and don't let your friends lie to whoever they're with.

I won't lie for a friend. It's not right at all. I'd be sad if she decides to stop being friends with me anymore but that too proves that she isn't a good friend.

I would not participate to avoid answering and outing my friend. But I am going to make sure I have a sit down with my friend to advise her to do the right thing I would be a good friend if I don't show my friend when she is doing something wrong

Truth is Truth, I will never lie for anyone and I will not cover anyone. Once you lie you will lose your respect and no one will believe you anymore. Also I have my own principles that I will never change to satisfy a friend.

No I don't find it necessary to do such a thing whereby in such circumstances you shouldn't lie atall for anything it's considered a sin in most religion.

It is on a case-to-case basis. You will most likely know who your friend really is because he/she is your friend. Just be sensitive to know which you think will be good for your friend. If he/she is your real friend in some situations that you don't cover up your friend that he/she will understand your side as a real friend to him/her.

Depends on what they did. If it's a big thing which hurt a lot of people, they aren't my friend anymore. If it's something they had to do and no one understands them and it didn't hurt anyone, I'll share their blame and stand by them.

To tell the truth at all time irrespective of the situation and people involved is the ultimate and best thing to do.

No matter who is involved, make sure you tell the truth. The truth will always find and dig up any lie even when you list expect.

So, always tell and stand for the truth.
