Compulsive lying Community Group
For individuals who lie because they cannot reveal their true selves to other people in their lives at the risk of being disliked. Are you a victim of this type of abuse??
I have been married for 6 years and for all 6 years I have lied to my wife about everything. I mean everything from telling her I have a job when I didn't, money, cars, smoking ciggarettes. You name it I have most likely lied about it. The one thing I have been is faithful in the sense that no other woman has or ever will be part of my life. The problem is that I am a liar. I can't stop I know she knows it and soon I would imagine I will do the same thing to my daughter who is 6. So far she has been lucky enough to have not been brought into it at least not directly. I used to tell straight up lies and just keep them going. Now I tell her half truths and I tell my self that hey at least I am telling somewhat of the truth. Well thhat unfrontuantely is still lying. I do believe that she is at the point where she knows that I won't change and is ready to leave. I need some serious help or at least some sort of support to help me be honest. I hate being a liar but it just comes out and often times I feel as if I can't control it. Please help even if it's just some friendly get your shit together advice or a slap up side the head telling me to stop being an idiot and just tell this woman the truth. I have no idea why she has stuck by me this long.
