Lying husband

My husband is an habitual liar. He lies to me constantly. He just started counseling but I don't know if he can be helped. I don't think he knows what the truth is anymore. I feel like a detective trying to find out if he's lying about something or not. Has anyone ever had someone in their lives like this? How can you trust them? Can they change? He almost always says he's sorry and that he won't do it again, and yet, here we are. I've almost given up hope.

Liars get their comeuppance, always.

So shallow-minded, they can't help themselves.

Yes - my sister is this way.

I believe the term is: "Pathoogical liar"

Perhaps there is no changing?

Does he lie about stupid things or big important things?

Oooooh I hate a liar that is a fight when you lie to me you will lose. I will rip a liar apart like a shark. Girl they usually can't help them selves. They get so far in and can't come back from it. I feel for u Knowing me I would be unhappy and I would leave. that's just me. I don't even know what to tell you.

A good liar needs a good memory.

Men can't multi-task !

Thank you for your comments! He lies about big and little things, but mostly about money and jobs. He has ruined himself financially and is now working on ruining my credit. We go to a marriage counselor for the first time tomorrow, so I would really appreciate prayers! I know I'm goin to break down when I have to talk about this stuff. Thanks, again.

My STBX is a habitual liar...he admits it, and he cannot stop. I couldn't trust him. We are no longer together...but it was more than just the lying.

If he just started couseling, give it time. Good luck to you.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
