Confessions

I am a liar. I have lied most of my life. I started out lying to protect myself and it got worse to where now I lie everyday several times a day and the lies are for no reason. I lie just because I am afraid of the truth. It's become easier to lie than to tell the truth and it's ruined my life and ruined the lives of people around me. I have cheated on my boyfriend and lied about it. I looked for love and acceptance and chose sex as a poor substitute because I don't know what love is because I have never experienced it. I knew it was wrong and I did it anyway. I need to learn self control and to stop the lying. I know I can only work on one thing at a time and the lying is the bigger issue because the lying is ruining my life.
