oh wait... i did tell a lie today, i said that i spent more time in Beijing than i actually did.... i don't know what the point of that lie was!

Hi,

Checking in mid-day. I feel it helps. I did not realize how hard it is not to tell a lie when I am actually concentrating on it. I have been in denial for so long. I even lied to myself that I don't lie. Today, I lied once to a random person but then I immediately stated out loud, no that is not correct, that's a lie I am sorry, right to that person. It was a stupid lie for no reason and had no meaning. It was really hard to admit it but I did. I feel like every word sits right in my chest ready to come out a lie.
Sincerly, struggling and fighting it!

Good Morning,

Ready to start my day. May I know how to be honest with each and everyone I come in contact with today. No exaggerations, no lies. Day to day.

Hello, just joined and I am a liar. Funny, I didn't see myself as one as I thought "liar" was too harsh of a word but dishonesty is dishonesty. It's very hard to admit that I lie but I'm finding out that I do it to maintain approval from others and truth avoidance with myself.

its a never ending cyle, a web you can't seem to free yourself loose from. Its not only will you possibly lie again, its when you are falsely accused for telling the truth. I love my girlfriend and think she is the one. I have lied to her and has caused our relationship to big a lie in itself. Each lie has brought us closer to never talking to each other again, one step closer to not being together for the rest of our lives. But somehow some way we wanted to work things out cause of how much we loved each other. On this night, I was scared to tell admit for having some emails sent to me that were suppose to be verifications for a certain account to be closed. At first I was reluctant to admit the emails had existed but then I finally. But then came a inquiry about the deletion of these emails to cover up something. I had proof there was no way I could delete these emails but because of the hurt and pain I have cause my girlfriend in the past there was no way she was going to believe me and my explanations for everything just sound like pure bull crap to her. It sucks cause even when the truth comes out, its just sounds like a lie. So, I dunno if this is the end. I don't know if she will talk to me ever again. I'm not even sad anymore, I'm more shocked and embarrassed for all of the pain my lies have caused. This just shows you how terrible and evil lying is, once you break trust is nearly impossible to gain it back. I hope I can work this out with her, I love her with al my heart. If I could take back every lie I had ever told her I would take it back in a heart beat. But people do change and people do stop telling lies, I just hope she sees it...

It is a struggle. I am also in sales and everyone seems to color things a certain way. I have to focus on the truth. It is almost 7 weeks no lies, no creative stories etc. It feels good. Thanks for the input of all of you involved. It takes a lot to look in the mirror and know that we are liars.... Prayers for all of us...

Going on 2 days of no lies. It is a reality check and made me realize how much I lie and create creative stories or exaggeratoins. I found an emotions anonymous group, I check on her daily, and I keep myself grounded. I am back to meditating and counseling, and mass everyday for the last 3 weeks., so I am trying to move forward. It is a struggle.

Heading to mass.... will pray for all of us.

Good morning group, it's the end of the week. I hope everyone was able to tell the truth this week.

Hello, I'm a liar and just joined this group. I'm seeing myself in a lot of others and hope to learn from everyone.

Hope all are having a great weekend. Hope all are having a great, honest weekend. Keep going!

Checking in.. I haven't lied in one week. It doesn't seem like much but it is on the road to recovery!

Have a great week everyone and remember keep it simple. Keep it honest!

Hi,
My name is Matthew and I am a liar. I have been honest for 4 days.

My name is Lina and I am a liar.

Ever since I was little, I would lie about things to get attention from my parents. I used to be a great student, an awesome daughter/sister, and a decent friend. After the stress of work, school, and all the lies I've been buried under came to a point... I am trying to make things right.

My new marriage is at its breaking point. I will be very lucky, if I can save whatever I have left. Though I do not deserve it. He has forgiven me countless times and all I have done is screw it up.

I love him with all my heart. I have let him down. He gave me so many chances. I had said in the past I would get help, but did not follow through. I was on the right path, but just like other issues, I fell off the wagon big time. I got caught, lost my job and I am about to lose the only person that matters to me..my husband.

I need to get my act together. Any input or words of encouragement would be appreciated.
