For you, brethren, have been called to liberty; only do not use liberty as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another. -- Galatians 5:13
Great comeback!
I once had to testify in a civil case, and the defense attorney made the implication that the plaintiff was a friend of mine–that we were in fact close friends.
“Yes, we are on friendly terms. We had worked together, but I wouldn’t call us close friends,” I replied.
The lawyer said, “But didn’t I just see you talking together during the last recess?”
“Yes, we were talking. I was telling him that since I’d last seen him, my dogs had died, I changed jobs twice, and had a knee injury that put me in a wheelchair for four months. He wasn’t aware of any of that.” (There were other personal details in my response that I won’t post publicly.)
Another reason why you need to be careful about the questions you ask.
