My boyfriend lies to me ALL THE time.we've one dc, almost 2 years old.
A couple of examples: when I was about 8 months pregnant, we had.an argument, then the next day he lied about being out (why would I care anyway?) but.something he said made it obvious he was lying. I did then snoop because I thought, well, why are you lying if.it's so innocent? 6 attempt.to phone a girl he works with at midnight. Wow ok that seems dodgy to me
He told me he was at.the bar and.that she was with his mate.and his was trying to find him. No attempts to call this mate tho.
Didn't believe it. He said the same lie for months
months. Then 'admitted" that he was calling her cause they were all going out clubbing together (ok fine)
Now all of a sudden he says that actually, he was at his male friends house and was calling her anther friends to come.over.
I know nothing happened because she is clearly not interested but I also know full well his intentions were not so innocent
.
Example.2(complete POINTLESS LIE)
We'd all been out at an airshow together, he dropped me home, then went to his friends house but told me he had gone home. I believed him obviously bit then his mate said something and it was obvious
It's not what he's lied about its the way he was on the phone to me, saying he was st home when he wasn't!

There's so many lies I just don't believe anything he says. He only.ever admits these lies.when I have facts. Basically.of he thinks he can get away with a lie he will.

I'm pretty sure I'm ending it. We had a big discussion about.this last week and yesterday more lies.
He doesn't respect me does he?

No he doesn't - and if he can lie about the small stuff then he sure as eggs is eggs, will lie about other stuff. And gaslight you in the process, thus making you a paranoid wreck.

Once a liar, always a liar. He will never change. I've come to believe that it is not always about not respecting you, but not respecting himself. The compulsive liars I've known have had poor self esteem.

If I had known my DH was a compulsive liar I would never have married him. Ironically it's not the big lies ("no, I didn't sex with her") it's all the stupid pathetic lies.

Me: "have you done X?"
Him: "No I was just about to"

They are the ones that piss me off on a daily basis!
