Pathological liars....why?

Does anyone here happen to know a pathological liar?

I happen to know a very evil one. She had an affair with someone very dear to me whilst still married to him, decided she wanted him out of her life for good, so rather than separate amicably and arrange a fair contact arrangement for the DC, she thought it would be a better idea to get rid of him completely by making up a false accusation of sexual abuse with their then 3 year old child

She must have thought he would run away from it all, perhaps end his life, who knows, but he didn't

He has had 2 very long years of fighting through court, paid 30+k in legal fees. Had psychologist report after psychologist report after bar report after bar report.

He's had contact stopped, then restarted but in a contact centre, countless audio and videos of the child saying nothing in particular and all looking very staged. He's had the humiliation of people thinking this could be true. He never gave up

Today, her lies were unfolded and story was uncovered. She planned this all along to get him out of her life, she fell pregnant 3 months after the marriage ended to another man, and made said child call this new man 'daddy'. She did everything possible to try and eradicate my DF from their child's life and alienate him from his DC. She lost

She has been shown to be coaching the DC all this time, making DC say certain things to certain people. The sheriff saw through her a while ago, made sure the DC had a lawyer as the mother clearly didn't have dc's best interests at heart. Concluded she is a liar

She's had two whole years of legal aid funding all because of her undiagnosed mental health issues and incessant need to lie.

Wow, we can't quite believe it. It's all over. DF finally has his DC back in his life 

I'm rambling...I need a

Thanks. I'm not even sure if it was rhetorical. I'm just in shock!!

Two years of absolute HELL! To the nicest man there is, all for what? Because this woman is an evil evil pathological liar and won't even admit she has a mental health problem.

Her new man will no doubt be accused of similar sooner or later

Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow! Accusing your own husband of sexually abusing your child when you know fine well nothing of the sort has or would ever happen....WTF!

Why would you do such a thing! He is a wonderful dad and never deserved any of this. But I'm over the moon for him now

I think you are confusing pathalogical liar and a selfish bitch who will do and say anything and hurt anyone to get what she wants.

A pathological liar will lie about anything and everything simply because they cannot help it and often there is no gain to the lie, they lie because they are incapable of telling the truth.

I had a terrible child hood and never meant to become a liar, it just happened because I had to cover up what happened to me so I would pretend. Now that I'm trying to come through it, I no longer talk about my background. Or my childhood. Other people do discuss their relationships with their family members and I just stay quiet. That is hard to do though, because people think you're weird.
I would never make up evil lies about someone though.

@PyongyangKipperbang interesting and very valid point....

Selfish cow with sociopath as narcissistic tendencies seems about right

@averageisgood I'm sorry you had a tough childhood, I hope you're getting/had lots of support and help?
