A buddy of mine changed high schools and told people I died in a car crash to get sympathy. I found it amusing when the truth surfaced.
He claimed to take time off for my funeral and comfort my family, which was absurd since I was very much alive.
The story unfolded when a mutual friend met me months later at a party and revealed my so-called death, sparking disbelief.
Even after the truth came out, I never confronted him, as he had already faced enough ridicule from peers for the lie.
