bad marriage

I am have 3 children and I have found out that my husband is a compulsive liar/exagerator of the truth


I can't belive anything that comes out of his mouth


in the beginning of the marriage we were so into eachother, although looking back he was definitely controlling but now each day is draining and exausting. i am sick all the time cause my resistance is down due to the stress of living with someone who is self centered and everything that comes out of his mouth could be a lie.


I am exhausted, depressed and do my best just to be a good mom but inside I'm a wreck.

You don't have to live like this. Talk to a therapist. Talk to a lawyer, a relative.
Find out what your options are.

I think we see the red flags, but the good outweighed the bad in the beginning...and now it's near the end and the bad is all that's left. I'm sorry you're going thru this...it's not something you can overcome overnight. But acceptance is a power thing...and getting angry and wanting something different can propel you to make changes you never thought you could.

Sending you love and light.

I finally cut ties with my sons dad. Best decision ever. He was a liar and took advantage of any situation for his own gain. I suggest you think about it maybe talk to a professional they can help you get out out of it. I wish you the best and be safe

A therapist would be a good choice to make. Whether it be a couple’s therapist/counselor or a therapist for you to get past this.
When dealing with people who are incapable of telling the truth - there is always a major trust issue that needs repair.
I feel for you. It’s time to be a little selfish and take care of your needs. See someone and get your ducks in a row, if you need to depart from this relationship. Take Care.

Its the worse feeling ever to have confidence with someone, just to find out differently, its like having lived with a stranger. How did you find out he was a compulsive liar and exaggerates the truth? How long have you been married?
Have you thought of seeking out a marriage counselor?

I am reading my own words here. I am going through a divorce from the same kind of man, I also have 3 kids. Clarity and strength be with you.

Definitely look into trauma therapy with a counselor. Once you process and heal, you will find your strength and wings. Fight hard to get to that point. You are worth it.
