At what time do you get angry?

My DH lost his mobile yesterday in a cab, so he is phone less.
He normally gets home from work around 8.

Just wondering at what time I can officially be p!ssed off ;)

"And being a man he just lies to try and keep things simple"

Nothing to do with being a man. Plenty of men out there who would't behave this way. It's a personality flaw not a gender one.

I don't entirely I think he could handle it better.

I get what you mean and without being a therapist who works with you it is hard to tell if you're making a good decision. Any chance if tomorrow you both sit down and agree that for the next two weeks you will try not to explode over small things, and he will be honest. Also agree with what is OK, e.g. It's fine to go for drinks first but give a time when to be home. It's OKthat you were hurt and you may want to talk about it but you won't be angry about everything as a way to deal with it.

I'm not sure that it matters that he's now only telling small lies rather than big ones. A lie is a lie is a lie and you can't live with a liar... Or I couldn't anyway.

Unfortunately it looks like he's still being the same person and that's why you are not over what happened. Because it is still happening.

Once he thinks he's passed the probation time or you relax, he'll be the same all over again. :(
